GA Swallow

1,305 Gandalf71  4.3 years ago

Gandalf's Aviatics Swallow is excelent single-seat racing and acrobatic plane. It's very fast, stable in flight, and easy to control. But it also has a large fuel supply for long flights.

Remember! Almost all of the aircraft I build are set to fly at 20% engine thrust for optimum fuel consumption and maximum flight range. But this one has optimal thrust 17% due to overpowered engine. For a racing plane, some extra power is always needed.

7 is for blinking lights.
