1910 AV.ROE. IV TRIPLANE
!THE RANDOM STUFF IVE FOUND IN MY SAVES SERIES!
I built this almost a year ago now, and never finished it,
I stumbled upon it whilst going through my saves and fixed it and made it actually fly... Probably why I didn't upload it.
It's one of those huge PlanesOfOld scale planes made of wings with a few fuselage pieces so I guess I made it a few weeks after the fuselage block patch as they are used in a very simple way, and the tiny fuselage pieces used, I found about 2 weeks after the patch so... Yeah.
I'm hoping to find more hidden gems soon!
This is a tricky plane to fly you need to let the tail raise up before takeoff, or you just won't get airborne, then you need to use the rudder a LOT
Or you will crash and burn!
Landing is pretty easy concidering it's one of my early planes (I wasn't good at making them stable, but that's part of the character!)
[Old me certainly did quite a good job!](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-D9gGs9EZKoM/TxCHj9BYm8I/AAAAAAAAIrk/QsoMPqkCqAk/s1600/AVION+AVRO+TRIPLANE+ROE+4+1910+dessin.jpg)
I will probably be remaking this on a PC with more detail, as with most of my early plane builds.
ENJOY!!!
I'm sure I've posted one of these before almost 2 years ago and I'm sure the description is still around somewhere possibly on the account XVIIndustries.

@PlanesOfOld It's funny because I live virtually next to avro arches which this was built under under and cycle under them every day.
Thanks all! I love this plane so may make another in smaller scale with even more detail once my laptop eventually arrives (honestly it's as if it's being delivered from the moon on the back of a snail!) glad you like this i might upload a few more things that I have gathering dust. Glad you chaps enjoyed! @JovianPat @Stingray @dragunove29 @Spinnes @TheBigEgg
Really nice details!
Beautiful detail!
beautiful plane
@PlanesOfOld I will
Old me certainly did quite a good job!
Thankyou. If you like the style of this, check out my old builds (they say 'a year ago' on them) they are all like this (almost) @Thebigbookofsimpleplanes
Fly really well good build
