Biplane

25.3k Rymanx03  6.0 years ago

A restored, rediscovered classic from Welmade. If you look at past posts, this isn't there, so don't bug me about it. They don't make a whole lotta biplanes anymore (because they're slow, and newer engines are more efficient with one set of wings), so I'm calling it a classic. I spent quite a long time building testing, completely restarting, and testing again to bring you this plane. Literally, I started at about 6 p.m., phone died at 6:30 (garbage battery), restarted at 8:00, built a simple version without an interior, didn't like it, tore it up and built an interior. Now that I've finished, it's currently 1:15 as I'm uploading this. So now that I'm done complaining about me wasting my time, use your normal aircraft controls to have fun with a fine piece of aviation history. Or don't, it's up to you.
