Stunt Biplane

32.3k CRJ900Pilot  7.6 years ago

Credit to F104Deathtrap for the control panel. A simple biplane I made in like a day. To takeoff, 100% and pull up. Lifts up at around 90-100 mph. Flies nice, has good roll rate, decent pitch rate, and low(ish) stall speed. To land, come in 10-15%. Cut power near runway (the prop takes a little while to fully cut) and touch down at 90 mph. Pitch up and brake slightly to stop. I'll convert it to a racer later
