this is ths werdon mk.2 biplane
Link to the instrument's I used
First off I'm just going to say this thing is SOOOO fun to fly. You can do pretty risky tricks and rolls and it just doesn't care. You can get like 10-15 feet away from a cliff and still have enough time to pull up. The slowest speed this thing can go and still be able to be good is around 70-80mph but 70 is really pushing it.
history
This plane was designed by the werdon corporation as a ww1 fighter with increased maneuverability and speed. Its first test flight was in late may 1917, and was not performing well enough to be sent into combat service. It went under a complete overhaul of the design and this was way better than the first prototype but by the time it was ready to be shipped into combat service, the war ended, and was sold to the public as recreational planes and crop dusters ( this is the recreational version). 562 of these were made in the 3 years of production and served on farms around the nation, and some, even, were shipped to Britain and France.

No joke this is the best handling plane I made yet and it's so freaking fun to fly. ENJOY!
@PapaKernels I think I found it last year and added to my favorite list in order to play it later, but never got around to it until now
@DanDaFreakinMan well, considering this is almost 2 years old, i think that would be why 😂. How did ya even find it lol
IDK man. I had quite a rough time. It's sentient I swear! Keep trying to lift up or turn on its own
@Blue0Bull can you make this a successor to this challenge, please?
If not, it will be the newest post on my profile @PapaKernels
https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/TI9fVR/biplane-challenge Does this work?@PapaKernels
@Cassius ok do you have a link I can use?
You should enter this into my biplane challenge
@ParziParziTheVal well here a good vid to watch its helarious super helarious
@ParziParziTheVal are you familiar with HI5 studios?
@ParziParziTheVal also did you get the joke
@ParziParziTheVal ok still haven't seen it. I'm going to change my name to add gaming to the end of it. ( not as ground breaking but still). Its going to be my YouTube channel when I get a good gaming pc
Probably dont get the joke
@ParziParziTheVal because it's almost the holidays or just
because!
@ParziParziTheVal ok. I was honestly about to call you unkle panthers but I was like that's not his username anymore(I still call you panthers in my brain)
@ParziParziTheVal really unkle parzi? So I probably have no chance of doing it?
@ParziParziTheVal I have no idea what that means
@ParziParziTheVal ok say that in a way a 4 year old can understand
@ParziParziTheVal like making working airalons elevons and rudder? Or is it making custom lift settings
@ParziParziTheVal oh really? What do I need to do to make it better
@ParziParziTheVal I dont know how to do that stuff but I know it can do so pretty hard maneuvers. If it does need more roll ability then just change it. I dont think making another post just to fix the roll rate is very efficient.
@ParziParziTheVal I just had a thought could I enter this in you challenge? It flies good enough to do ok in the challenge
@SemedianIndustries I came up with In a top secret post I made and just stuck with it.
@PapaKernels what are the odds?
