Precious Metal P-51 V.2

8,419 RedBeard66  9.2 years ago

The famos Reno Racer. 3200 hp griffen engine in a hevily modified P-51. The coolest part of the plane being the dual inline counter rotating props.

Take off and landing instructions: Use the flaps with the VTOL slider and take off at 30% throttle with full elevators.

When landing also use the flaps and avoid the brakes, the will make it nose dive on the landing. Be sure you are going really slow at touchdown, under 100mph it's pretty difficult to land this thing.

    Thanks! @PhillipTarpley check out my updated version!

    It's still a pain to take off and land but the build quality is a little better, and it does fly better.

    Pretty touchy on takeoff, but man is it beautiful...and handles amazingly once airborne (floppy wings and all)

    Hey dude. If they ever get multiplayer, me and you should do pylon racing with our precious metals because I built one two. That would be awesome.

    Still not it. Have you guys seen "the droplet" plane? Or the Bugatti 100p? It's different then just the gloss, semi gloss. It's like super gloss.

    That's not what I mean. I can see the polished look on the planes that have them I want to be able to make the polished look for this plane. My quality settings are turned up. Unless it's an option not available on mobile?
