FB-1 Biplane

2,262 BasketKase  6.5 years ago

This biplane fighter has a unusual wing configuration influenced by the Handley Page Heyford. This plane is an easy flyer, but has a high stall speed, tricky landing procedure, and slight instability. Feel free to improve the design and I do take suggestions. Enjoy!
