Tournament entry for the Trainer Challenge.


Imagine taking the ultimate 2 seat sports car and adding wings. That is the feeling you get when you take off to the skies in the DA20i, whether travelling or training. The advanced composite design and the modern cockpit of the DA20i make it an exciting airplane to fly. Its agility and superb performance guarantee a smile on your face.

Sauce


A few instructions:

  • VTOL for flaps
  • AG7 for the landing lights.

For take off

  • flaps 1/2 way down
  • try not to steer too much

For landing

  • throttle down to ~10-15%
  • flaps all the way down
  • decrease your speed, otherwise you may fall over.
Have fun!

    Whoa this is really nice! I would take the advice of adding some details. It could benefit from some wing details

    @Thoum I could accept it as it is, as it's cute, or you could add a few details and reupload.
