Quetzalcoatlus

8,890 FuzzyAircraftProductions  5.6 years ago

Quetzalcoatlus was the largest Pterosaur ever to exist. It had a wingspan of 12 metres and was 8 metres long. When standing on its four feet (toes and wing claws) it was 5 metres tall (guess what is 5 metres tall today! Tip, it lives in Africa and is spotty- a giraffe!). It lived in the USA around 68-66 million years ago and witnessed the KT event. This one is just over twice the size and flies with a gyro. Start in the air and glide onto land. It has VTOL flaps, roll flaps and pitch flaps on its wings. The neck is controlled by trim and the beak is brake. Have fun!
