Review

For a long time now I had been planning to make a 1920-1930 air racing style aircraft, and very conveniently came across a challenge for which I made this aircraft. It is based on the R2C-1 (I didn't find any blueprints or diagrams, just a photo), but with a Curtiss V-1570 Conqueror engine and slightly upgraded wings and stabilizers.


enjoy!
