Ok, wow. This one took a while. I started this one back near March of 2017, about when I made the Atocha, trying to make a wire-frame style aircraft, but so many things went wrong with it, I just gave up on it. One of the major issues i’d had with it was, for some reason when both flying and on the ground, it would turn to the left extremely hard no matter what I did, and as I was reworking it to make it uploadable recently, I realized i’d made the wings semi-symetrical, and for 2 years, I never thought to just come back and redo the wings. Now, it has very little fuel, and for whatever reason some parts on the left side of the plane have different drag compared to the right side, which I still can’t figure out, but it at least flies now, and it looks decent. It’s a little slow, but I used a couple tips some people gave me on STOL’s to make it lift a little better. KP stands for Kit Plane because it kinda reminds me of a kit car, but as a plane, soooooo enjoy and guve me any feedback on what I can do better on or what I did well with. Thanks!

    Yeah, once I got it done I just kinda gave up on slot of detail, but I could redo it a bit and make it lighter. I was making up as I went, and I admit, the shape of it is a little improvised. The non functional parts were meant as decoration (like the car engines) but it could definitely be improved greatly. Anything you want to do to reprise or modify it, be my guest, I figure I’ll do the same eventually. Thanks for the feedback! @Tw1st3dPs7ch0
