Fun to fly, very stable, and extremely durable. It's fun to try to knock wings off and continue flying. I realize it's slow, that was intentional, the real one isn't fast either (only 117 mph). Don't try to take of too early, let the plane takeoff itself. Have fun with it! If you rate low please comment why.

    Looks great, but is a little clunky off the runway until you go fast enough.

    @Lolivier yup everyone is very much into F-22's and F-35's and the classic yet interesting build are slowly fading away from the glory

    Fantastic model reproduction, normal flight performance for the Sopwith. I prefer the cockpit view, which you got to admit is non-standard on your cockpits. (That's minor, though.)

    That's so much time I'm waiting any Sopwith Camel... But everybody is doing freaking fighter jets...

    Thanks guys! Try landing it after you detach the top wing, gives you a challenge.
