LTV A-7 Corsair (can take off from USS Tiny), Vietnam War series

675 BORKcz  4.8 years ago

Hey guys,
this is recreation of LTV A-7 Corsair, a carrier take off capable CAS bomber from Vietnam war era.

I balanced it as best as I could and I can say it is really easy to fly plane. With CURRENT load, it is capable of taking off from USS Tiny, so it requires a really small runway, I'm honestly proud of myself for balancing the weight/power ratio so it can take off from these small runways.

Anyway hope you'll like it guys ;)
