Decided to throw in a new build among all of the old ones I'm redoing.
Notes: This thing yaws using airbrakes. Pretty neat, huh?
Landing can be a little tricky.
The Horten H.IX, RLM designation Ho 229 was a German prototype fighter/bomber initially designed by Reimar and Walter Horten to be built by Gothaer Waggonfabrik late in World War II. It was the first flying wing to be powered by jet engines.
