@Subsere Oh. Ok, good to know

Hope you don't mind, but I modified this to be a twin engine floatplane. Same basic fuselage, but there's a nose cone where the original engine is, and I put the engines in pods under the wings.
Here is the plane in question:

@Subsere good… good
@GuyWhoBuildStuff That hurts to look at.
@Subsere Bloom?
@YarisHatchback I may have overdone it a bit.
All in the name of being eye-catching.
damn that bloom effect is crazy
@JBPAviation You can't see it, but it's reinforced.
@Subsere Oh my bad sorry. How did I not think of that? It makes so much more sense and the physics will definitely work with hard plastic, duh!
@JBPAviation It's hard plastic.
Attaching wings to glass is a new one🤔
Hm.
@Graingy Yes.
That reminds me, @GuyWhoBuildStuff
Is this Eel War?
@Subsere Aight dawg
@Graingy This is much more affordable.
@Subsere Hm. Good luck with that. Kinda reminds me of Graingy's Sky Gondola. At least the glass canopy does.
@Graingy Yes, keeping cost low was a priority. It's a highly affordable aircraft, and should be competitive in the civilian sector as well.
So cheap it uses a fixed pitch propeller, eh?
