This is slower than 'The Slow Plane', but not as slow as the 'The Wright Flyer' model that is on here somewhere that flies extremely slowly, around 10-12 mph from memory, although I could be wrong.
This flies OK, it might have a top speed of around 130 mph.
It needs full power to get off the ground, but once airborne and stable will fly on much less, but just don't try to do anything like turn without turning the power back up.
This will actually take off before you run out of runway and lands nicely too.
Controls as per normal, motors stock except for small size, fuel cell xml'd for a little extra fuel and various parts lightened.
