This is my second submission for the seaplane challenge, I designed this plane to look as close to a real DHC-2 beaver. This plane took me shorter to make and test than my other plane the piper j3 cub and it also came out nice. How to fly the DHC-2. Trim moves the rear elevators, use this to make small adjustments to the up/down movement like my other plane. VTOL is for the flaps that help with shorter takeoffs. To turn on the lights use AG1. When you are in the water use AG2 to drop the rudders to steer better. Incase you land in the water weird and you flip the plane use AG7 for the gyro, after it flips upright turn it off. Hope you enjoy this. I also figured out how to do the screenshots on iOS for the first time so the picture isn’t the most cinematic as others.
