GROUND EFFECT IS REAL!!!! Download this, add full power and full down trim, give it a minute or so and away it goes!! DO NOT USE ANY CONTROLS EXCEPT FOR TURNING Cruises about 90-100. Hope you like it
Edit: this isn’t actually ground effect the plane is just balanced in such a way that it emulates ground effect. Still does exactly what a real ekranoplan does

Yesss
Whoa.....
Great design
@Mrwhiskers85 it is new. I never saw anyone do this. It emulates ground effect better than anything I ever saw.
@EternalDarkness aw dang, I thought I had discovered something new
Pretty nice, almost like there really is ground effect. Actually, you are just maintaining the speed at which the craft neither climbs nor descends. Good job balancing it to do that. I used gyroscope and precise trim to make my ekranoplan (not released yet, scheduled for weekend) fly level at very low altitude.
Wow!!!!
