Auto Credit Based on Samwise's He 280 v3 A final

It's finally here! This is the most accurate, most beautiful plane I have ever made. It is almost 1-1 scale (Just a bit off) and fun to fly around. It is fuel hungry though, so be mindful of how much is left in the tank. For realistic speed and superior handling, don't fly above 20,000 feet. The iron cross emblems are credited to General360. Also for the first time with custom landing gear! Now for the specs.
