T-Bird II-75

30.4k Hyattorama  5.4 years ago

Welcome to the T-Bird II-75, the Gulfstream IV of ultralights! It has seating for two with plenty of head space and leg room, and the seats are no ordinary ultralight seats. It has cargo space for gear or luggage, and the cockpit is fully enclosed in Lexan, blocking out the wind while maintaining near perfect visibility. With a 75 hp motor and 89 mph top speed, you'll leave other ultralights in the dust! This plane is also very versatile; it has good range, and is both sporty and comfortable. Pound for pound and dollar for dollar, the T-Bird II-75 is the best flying experience on the market!

Flight controls are standard.
AG8 for lights.

This plane was fun to build, and I'm really happy with how it turned out. I wanted to add a little more to the cockpit, but I decided to keep the part count under 800 haha. I hope you guys like this plane as much as I do! :)

Thanks to @Chancey21 and @tylerdeveneuxmusic for helpful feedback and advice.

Happy flying!

    The real plane has a never exceed speed of 85mph
    Maybe it’s in a different class or something... it doesn’t say top speed but cruise speed is 70 so... I dunno. What are the FAA rules for ultralights? I mean, I know there’s different rules for different types of ultralights but... yeah

    @Hyattorama It's too small for being a 75 hp engine.

    Sadly this thing is actually too fast for an ultralight, it breaks the FAA rules about them
