Dash Systems Rapide

14.1k d45h  2.2 years ago

Welcome!

After months of pain and procrastination, I bring you the latest addition to the Dash Systems lineup: the Rapide. It uses Otana’s X-400 turboprop, which will be in the description.

Basic Specifications

Top speed in level flight: about 312 knots

Stall speed: about 104 knots

Background

I started this thing many months ago when I saw an awesome turboprop engine uploaded to this site. It was originally intended to be a fast racer, but it turned into what it is right now. It is my pride and joy, and it shows what I can do if given time. I hope you enjoy!

Features

This plane features:

Detailed gear bay

Detailed interior

Fuselage wings

Custom wheels on landing gear

Pitot cover that can be removed

Detailed engine

Safety parachute

And much more!

AG’s

Ag1: Close canopy

Ag2: Eject pitot tube cover

Ag3: Airbrakes

Ag4: Open engine compartment

Ag5: Navlights

Ag6: Landing lights

Ag7: Emergency parachute

    @BogdanX I kinda knew the visibility sucked before i uploaded it, currently making another version which should fix all those issues, plus some weapons

    This plane is an awesome design. You should also share some of the earlier designs that you shared with is on reddit! I particularly liked the one that looked from the 50s

    Looks like a good candidate for some military light attack aircraft competition. Anyways, why does the instructions for the link to the engine in the description claims that the link will be in the description, but it is actually in your pinned comment?

    Wow it looks and flies amazing. I usually like jet planes more than propeller planes but this might be the best propeller plane on the website. You just earned another upvote 👍
