I wanted to do something since I’ve been on this site for 3 years now. So, I figured I would remake my favorite creation: the Lightning. Yes, I know there are some issues but I’m not sure how to make landing gear that retracts nicely. I’m also sorry I could not get the elevators to pitch like they should, the plane would enter a corkscrew, and almost fail to recover. Anyways, this build has been fun, and I may have a few more up my sleeve...

I had a go at this beauty a while back, I'm proud of my attempt, but yours looks better! Very cool buddy.
Would spotlight, but I have already reached max :,(
Cool man, I love the lightning, the wheels are a pain cos they twist as they retract so need both hinge and rotating mechanisms, I've made a few lightnings if you want to nick bits or ideas.
@Tang0five thanks!
Beautiful job!
