loved Blue0Bull's plane but the flight characteristics felt strange, it now uses no vertical control surfaces, instead uses differential drag to stabilize itself, easier to control, flies trimlless, more fuell efficient, oh and it's black, enjoy!

    I thought "hmm how much better could it be " . Come to find out , alot . The version i downloaded couldnt take off without slowly adding throttle. Yours is flawless in my eyes . Flight charisteristics are like night and day. She flies like a dream. I did a ngad version of this https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/xL05eA/FX-81-B-2 . It doesnt fly as good as yours but i tried . It does geaux fast as hell tho
