German Biplane

2nd upload of this plane.. very minor adjustments. This new one has some bigger horizontal stabilizers, balancing out the Center of Lift better, and adding more weight to the back, allowing for an easier landing, because the first one was pretty much impossible to land. This one still takes practice, and I suggest trying to get speed below 90mph before touching ground, and as soon as you touch ground, pull up. This new one also has a small gun on the tip of the engine.

    @MediciAviation243 & @plane918273645 thx for the upvotes guys lol first upvotes I got.. but yea if you have trouble building I suggest just using a picture to help.. look up something online and try to copy the style.. I got lucky on this one and the plane I was copying had quite similar specs to the one I built
