seaplanes rise
History:
The Mirage R-7 is a recon seaplane (or flying boat). It had 2 puller (or whatever it’s called) counter rotating propellers, with 2 pusher counter rotating propellers. It was heavily critisized as being “outdated” however it possesed a high speed and could land where most jets could not. It could fit 2 observers, a radar operator, and a pilot and copilot. It had a gyroscope which needed to be turned on before launch, however it was easy to maintain due to the lack of metal corrosion, in which the plane was made of light but durable fibers.
Controls:
AG1: Takeoff Gyro
AG2-8: none
VTOL: Flaps
Notes:
Always (on takeoff) pitch up after you reach 80 mph. If you don’t the plane will just swerve, I have no fix to that
