Rudy's Red Ranger
1,472 PhantomAviator
4.0 years ago
A novel bush plane built by your engineering student neighbor Rudolph Hughes. He's quite proud of his project, starting 4 years ago when he entered school, and finishing 4 months ago on his 23rd birthday, for many reasons beyond just its incredible STOL performance.
My personal entry into Ultralight's Bush Plane Competition. Took some XML tweaks to fit into the parameters for drag and weight of the simple class, even though I was aiming for advanced. I'm pretty proud of it. I'll update the description if need be, still got a whole month til the competition is done. The white rectangles on the nose are standins for the words "Red Ranger" VTOL controls the door.
