ACE Skyfarer (My First Functional Plane)

15 AussieGamer2589  3.0 years ago

The ACE Skyfarer is a single-engine propeller powered Aircraft developed by Australian Civil Engineering. It was designed to be a cost effective civilian Aircraft that was simple and easy to produce. The controls are as normal, except VTOL to raise the front landing gear. This is my first successful attempt at making a functional aircraft that doesn’t catastrophically fail immediately after Take-off, so I would really appreciate it if you gave this an upvote. I know it doesn’t look great, but I prioritised Control and Functionality over Appearance and Aesthetic Value.
