From Wikipedia:

"The Air Tractor AT-602 is an agricultural aircraft that first flew in the United States on 1 December 1995,[1] manufactured by Air Tractor Inc. Of monoplane low-wing, taildragger configuration, it carries a chemical hopper between the engine firewall and the cockpit. It was designed to fill a gap in the Air Tractor range between the AT-500 series with their 500 US gal (1,890 L) capacity and the AT-802s with their 810 US gal (3,070 L) capacity.[1]"

VTOL down to lower flaps.

Start run-up at 30% throttle, then throttle up to full as you pull away from the runway.

HAPPY FLYING!

    @A5mod3us my own design, but quite inspired by this one, it has to have a longer body to be able to hide a VTOL engine to power the stabilisers.

    @LjSpike Is it a replica, or your own design?

    @JacobHardy64 @A5mod3us I'm trying to make my own nice crop duster plane, I'm trying to use 0.5 wide fusilage bars, then adding VTOL stabiliser thrusters to make the white gas eject.

    @JacobHardy64 the original comment was a question though, not praise

    @LjSpike https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAmtJaHJoRE Hope that link works for ya

    Flying starts at 1:20. I recommend you mute it and find a better track for the video.

    @JacobHardy64 I did forget to up vote this one, but comments don't mean an up vote is required, that'd just be like the wars over three star ratings again.

    @LjSpike It is a cropduster. They don't cut the crops, they spread seed, fertilizer, or pesticides. This plane is based on a real aircraft.

    If you comment on the plane you should fly and upvote it too @LjSpike

    It looks like a farmers plane, but did it actually cut the crops, I'd love to see a video of one in action
