XP-55

597 Swanchise16  7.8 years ago

A replica I made of the XP-55, a WWII-era American fighter. I tried to make it as aestheically pleasing as possible while retaining as many of its actual preformance factors as I could. You can raise the rear gear by VTOLing all of the way up to +100%, and you may want to fly with Trim at about -5% to -15% to compensate for its downward pitch. Enjoy!
