Piper Cub W/ DG Flugzeubau DG-1000 Glider

300 CenturionKing  8.6 years ago

This is a replica i tried to make of a Piper J-3 "Cub" towing a DG-1000 glider. Its more for decoration than actual flight. The only way I could get it to fly was by releasing the glider (activate group 1 to release glider) and then restarting at Bandit Final Approach, but I'm sure many of your guys' flying skills are superior to mine. I hope you have as much fun flying it as I did making it!
