Thank @Moorington for giving me the opportunity to transform this awesome A-42 aircraft with my own hands. Compared with the original version, it removed many decorative parts, making the total parts less and running smoothly on the low equipment. I also joined some elements that were previously used on my aircraft V-2XFC-4. On the basis of the original A-42, several wing surfaces are added and forward swept wing design is adopted. Except for the decrease of the load, there is no significant difference between the performance of the machine and the original A-42. The specific operation mode can refer to the original A-42 made by moorington.

    @Moorington During the test of a-42, I found that the length difference between the front and rear landing gears was too large, which led to the unstable landing attitude, it was easy to touch the ground and damage the airframe. In order to solve this problem, I reduced the height of the front landing gear. I think this should be the only advantage of this aircraft compared with the original.

    @Moorington Thank you for your approval. In fact, the performance of the aircraft has not been significantly improved. Although reducing the missile load improves the maneuverability, the new wing also increases the resistance, resulting in the reduction of the maximum speed. Compared with the original version, it has no advantage, but now it finally can run smoothly on my poor equipment.:)
