A long time not seen, because the Chinese-style education, I do not have much time to complete the plane, but finally completed today. Note: The maximum thrust at takeoff is 30 mph, the aircraft comes with unlimited fuel tank, but the bug let it show as one percent. In late 1933, the Dragon Rapide was designed at the de Havilland company as a faster and more comfortable successor to the DH.84 Dragon. It was in effect a twin-engined, scaled-down version of the four-engined DH.86 Express .
