Falkenwut Generation Build: 4

This is my take on the Conceptual Grumman Model 623. A VTOL concept plane made by Grumman in the 1970s-80s or so. Found this model completely by coincidence, but I had difficulty trying to scale it properly. That aside, I'm pretty happy on how it turned out.



Note on VTOL control: The plane does not use any gyros, and can be controlled using manual control. As long as your adjustments and throttle are controlled smoothly and gently, your VTOL control should be a pleasant experience :)

This model has since been remade and will redirect to the next model.
