This is the latest version based on a design 1.8 years ago. My building skill back then was terrible, but it is very significant because it is the first plane I have ever built on SimplePlanes. So I decided to update it with the latest building technique I have developed in the past years.
Controls:
AG6 = Gyroscope (useless)
AG7 = Parachute
AG8 = Navigation Lights and Landing Light
VTOL = Flaps

What a machine!!! impresive performanve !! So maneuverable, that could kill the pilot. Amazing well done.
Nice
@jamesPLANESii Thank you so much for the spotlight. The controlling of the aircraft is not very realistic because it's very light, and its power/weight ratio is above 10. I wanted it to be excellent in dogfight but now I think I have overdone it. Lol
Looks great but it’s way too manoeuvrable in pitch and it accelerates way too fast. Takeoff distance is shorter than a Piper Cub.
Ngl this definitely deserves more than 5 updoots lol
Hope this helps
@Alta2809 Thank you. I really want to fly your Sparrowhawk once it is released.
Great Build! I'm coincidentally building another plane called the CAC CA-31 'SparrowHawk' as well.
