P-12.6667 Spark

26.9k Sunnyskies  8.3 years ago

So I thought to myself, "what if the P-38 only had a single fuselage?" So I took apart my P-38, and put it back together like this. It's pretty interesting. All the controls are the same, and it handles similarly. It's a little slower than the full P-38. I had a lot of trouble trying to figure out how and where to put the main landing gear, and arrived at a pretty odd solution. As for the name, 12.666... is what you get when you divide 38 by 3, and spark is a weaker form of lightning.
