@Cedy117 it's really unstable and goes into a flat spin way to many times
I don't think it would do anything because it needs a bomb inside of it to explode I built this one before the weapons came out @WilhelmScream
Does the Torp work on the AI ships?
@cedy117 no problem I really like your planes (mainly because of the amazing cockpit views) also the fact that I know you put a lot of work and time into these planes. :)
Lol thanks @Trex
sees cedy117 uploads new planes, giggles with joy
Thanks! @maverickvii
So much detail, love it
Thanks! @WalrusAircraft
I love how much detail you put into these planes!
I really like this plane,but it feels underpowered on takeoff. But everything else is spot on
Nice plane look and fly well :D
@WWIIPlaneBuilder will do I'll just start from scatch I like the look of that plane starting right now should be out in 3-5 days gunna be a fun build
Love the look of this plane... Mandy you might want to build the firefly... A few modifications to this plane should do the trick!
Yeah I tried It looked bad so I just went with solid wings @karlosdarkness
So beautiful. Just awesome
Fantastic detail just a little surprised you didn't try to make the wings fold too as that would have been sub zero cool.
Cedy you are one talented dude
Lol @Wahoo12 I think I know it too lol
I know the perfect song for this plane.....
Flies like a brick, but very cool
If you go to cockpit mode you get to see a secret world
Ok I'll give it a look @Danillio05
