RENEGADE FOR LIFE I FLY UPSIDE DOWN HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
@jamesPLANESii Try inverted with the gears retracted :)
@DandruffCat I have many times. I even tried landing upside down once. I nosedived into the ground because the wings were flat bottom lol.
@jamesPLANESii Yes sir
@DandruffCat Do you mean flying upside down?
Out of curiosity, has anyone attempted flying inverted? :)
@Sunnyskies I tried to keep it in scale of my other planes
A little small, but the shape is very good.
Great job
Awesome
