Pip pip chaps!

My entry to the WW1 challenge. The Blackburn Badger F.1.

She is more or less a ficticious analogue of the Sopwith Camel.

She has a couple of nice features; a working rotary engine, a semi detailed cockpit, a pilot cam with head shake (cam 1) and custom control surfaces.

She is by no means easy to fly, but scouts of this era were just as likely to kill you as the Bosche were. Go easy on the controls. That said, she has buckets of excess oomph and most shennanigans should be survivable.

Performance;

At sea level - 141mph
At 5000ft - 150mph
At 10000ft - 171mph
At 15000ft - 188mph
At 20000ft - 202mph

She will furthermore get airbourne from the deck of USS Tiny with no trouble at all.

Good luck, good hunting, pip pip, so on and so forth, gents.

    A hurricane is indeed possible. Probable, even. @Spitfirelad05

    Yep, based on the River Clyde to the west of Glasgow, Scotland. They never really built anything like this, but I really liked the name. @Boundslayer
