The RP-4 was plane built by David Rose who built expiremental planes. it was powered by 2 V8 engines. This replica only goes 681 mph, not as fast as the real thing. It doesnt fly that well, it will roll super fast because of its design and will take a while to turn. Overall it is a pretty cool replica. When I found this plane I thought it looked weird. It is a racing plane that was meant for speed. I though I would be unique and build this but it turns out there are two others that fly wayyy better. I hope you enjoy flying this, safe flying, and as always, CobraHuey out. :)

@KnightOfRen it’s ok!
It doesn’t fly that great and doesn’t look detailed. I will probably make a more detailed one. @KnightOfRen
OOPS!! TYPO!!
I looks good to me. all you need is the exposed engine. what else do you want to change??
Thanks! I will probably do a remake of most of my builds. This is on that list@KnightOfRen
Great job! captures the real plane perfectly!! All it needs is exposed engine parts, but I could imagine that would very hard. It really captures the essence of the real plane. I like it in real life and I like your rendition of it! Keep flying Cobrahuey!
Thanks!@Mustang51
Cool aircraft!
