The final super marine Schneider trophy winner The S6B was powered by a 2350hp rolls Royce r water cooled v12 and and a top speed of 408 mph and eventually served as the inspiration for the spitfire. This like the real thing is difficult to fly and has a nose drop caused by the floats meaning you have to keep pitch up all the time I'll continue trying to fix this but if it didn't have that weight at the front it wouldn't fly at all to take off aboviosly go to water location throttle up wait for it to settle in the water and throttle up she takes off at about 100mph try not to crash her in the water as I think I may be catching the hypnotoad flu as bad things happen... I've spent days on this plane and I Realy would appreciate a rating from all of u guys and yes I'm working on more seaplanes like this and they will get better but as my first one I decided to make my seacond favorite.when it comes to flying her take off at about 10% throttle and gradually ease up to 30% that can get you easily to 300mph at 40% she gets to 400 and if you go anithing over 50% it gets unrealistically fast and the wings and pontoons explode so don't do that! If you want to get out of a bank use rudder to stable her this is a plane for its pilot it has a charachter of an untameable beast if you are gentle on the controlls the plane will be gentle with you don't do full Anithing or it will result in an unhappy pilot who is swimming with the fishes for a course/track fly from the water take off around the back of the USS tiny and across to the south runway go along the runway and turn back in to the water take off this is a basic seaplane course for you to practice flying her please check out A5mod3us' seaplanes as they are 10x better than mine he also has a Schneider plane similar in size to this one and I suggest you check it out :) HAVE FUN

    @PlanesOfOld So, question. If/when I post the Schneider cup challenge, are you going to assist with judging, or were you planning on entering said competition?

    @Zing2000 I would have expected this aircraft being rediculously famous and said to be more beutiful than the spitfire and my all time favorite plane that I spent over a day making to get at least as many as the Curtiss p-40 warhawk

    @PlanesOfOld You said that you would rate some of my planes when I created the fuel. Are you still going to do that? If not it is fine.
