After realizing how limited the inline engine was, it was decided to develop a racing aircraft with two to compensate. The result was the striking Paulus Model 7. While not quite as fast as the Models 2 and 3, it is highly maneuverable, though yaw stability is below average.

    @Brields95 I honestly never consider how big they are. I just build what I need. In the case of racers, smaller means less weight and drag. My fighters might be a bit bigger, but their size is entirely dependent on what I need them to do.

    You should definitly think about making your planes a bit bigger, but keep it up.
