LoL plen with weird wings


Info:

The Arado Ar 231 was a lightweight floatplane, developed during World War II in Nazi Germany as a scout plane for submarines by Arado. The need to be stored inside the submarine necessitated compromises in design that made this single-seat seaplane of little practical use.


Controls:

Normal SP controls


How to Fly:

Takeoff: Full flaps, full throttle do not release the joystick
Landing: Full flaps, low speed do not release the joystick (note that landing is quite hard)


Notes:

The marks on the plane is for historical accuracy only
It flies very well tho
The floats are not quite much detailed since they're quite confusing lol


Real sample:


Enjoy!
