RIA AV-1-8Ex.Mod-LA01 Falcon

3,690 LjSpike  9.0 years ago
Auto Credit Based on A5mod3us's Sportlight LA-01 Jumper (Exprimental Amphibian)

A slightly longer slightly more powerful adaption of the LA01 (see predecessor) this version seats 8 comfortably, then a pilot and co-pilot, with small additional space for a toilet etc. Available in many setups, this version also has small external cargo stores, which provide additional safety if any cargo were to detonate.

    @LjSpike I've made some mods to this aircraft for proper level flight at low speed. I've also made it stall proof.

    @LJSpike I wish there were a way to control elevators with the VTOL control.

    @jquinn88 lots of planes are nose heavy at low speed, unless they have elaborate extendable flaps, that's one reason why there is a magic "cruise speed" for planes.

    Really enjoyable, would love to see some type of trim, as it's nose heavy under low speed.
