Chevalier Prototype I

1,605 Cubensis  7.6 years ago

The first succesful Jet-Powered aircraft I developed from scratch, this model was the first stage in the on-going Chevalier Jet program. Due to unsatisfactory stability, terrible aerodynamics, low air speeds, and the lack of fuselage parts, this plane design was reworked, resulting in the Prototype II
