Inspired to build after seeing BogdanX's Payen racer and accidentally finding a blueprint for this lol.
Brief History
[Sorry for the lack of information on this aircraft. It's very rare. And that little sentence of info was for the SK-3, not the SK-4 like the one I built. But both aircraft share almost identical features and are extremely similar.]
The Folkerts SK-3 a.k.a. "Jupiter, Pride of Lemont was the third in a series of air racers developed by Clayton Folkerts.

Yeah that's how a lot of old landing gear systems worked.@DanDaFreakinMan
Looks great, flies great too! Like how the landing gear don't come out at the same time

Excellent choice and brilliant execution! There are some gorgeous racers from this time period and you picked one of the best.
Thank you Bogdan! I really appreciate the tips and critisicm. I'll be sure to clean those up next time around.@BogdanX
@Hedero

Yeah lol@BagelPlane
@Hedero Nah, it’s no big deal. I’m always scrolling through the airplanes, so if someone tags me on something, I’ll find it eventually.
Thanks!@MAHADI

@BagelPlane Yeah that's odd. Should we contact a dev?
@Hedero I saw it, and it’s spelt properly too. Weird I didn’t get a notification.
Great.

Yeah, I think I know what you mean. Like when you go too slow or something then the airplane throws itself upward a little?@ACEPILOT109
