Vought-Sikorsky OS2U-1 Kingfisher (LAND VARIANT)
LINK TO FLOATY VERSION (I couldn't get the blue text link to work): https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/6KwhrB/Vought-Sikorsky-OS2U-Kingfisher
My replica of the rare fixed landing gear variant of the Kingfisher. When it came out in 1937, there were originally 2 options, one with a float and one with fixed landing gear, the US Navy ordered both. I decided to paint it in it's original colors as well! It also comes with a gun, 1 .30 cal in the nose. Also, this version has more realistic flight characteristics as it is much lighter!
Controls:
VTOL: Flaps
TRIM: Trim
Pilots Notes:
Take off is straight forward, flaps to first notch and trim all the way down. Lift off at 90 to 100 mph, retract flaps, and trim stays down. Landing is much more difficult, do not land with the nose pointed down. Stalls at around 85 mph.
MOBILE FRIENDLIER THAN ORIGINAL!

@Liquidfox I already made one, but it isn't very good, I might make a V2 along with the avenger when 1.7 comes out!
