‘09 Angel Early Biplane

793 Zeewitje  5.4 years ago

An early biplane, made in the years before WW1, with planes still being new to the world. It is my favorite build so far, and I hope you will like it too.

Complete with:
- Custom engine
- Custom cockpit
- Custom landing gear.

Some thoughts of me when designing:
- The exhaust of the engine will go through the fuselage, and the hot air will make the plane a tad bit lighter.
- The propellor will boost the air through the fuselage, and by doing this will hit the vertical stabilizer with extra speed, resulting in a bit more lift.
