Grumman F4F Wildcat

This is my first replica, I tried to make it exactly the same as the real life version, the lenght, height, wingspan and weapons are the same, but i had to set my own settings on the engine to get it close to its actual top speed, also weight is a lot different

    @GINGER01 custom wings messed up the performance so i removed them, and i did the color based on the easiest paint job i could find on google :P Thanks tho

    Thicker wing would make this replica better in the shape of an airfoil that is. Plus the light blue kind of hurts my eyes. It seems too bright. Though that''s my opinion. Great work though.
