Hey I remember the Yellow Bee! I used to have one but it only flew 2 or 3 times before it crashed because of how crappy it was. But still was a cool looking RC plane! I tried making on in SP awhile ago and made it very small so its like the real thing but it just didn't want to fly right so I abandoned it. I think it might still be in my library.
The Hobbyzone Champ is a far superior beginners plane than the Yellow Bee ever was.
My Greenhorn plane would go pretty good with Light Sport Class, although the prop/engine is xml-modded so it handles & weighs similar to a real-life Lycoming IO-360.

There are/were some racers like that such as Tsunami, Dreadnaught (Sea Fury that uses an American engine), Precious Metal, Critical Mass (highly modified Sea Fury), Shockwave air racer (based on a Sea Fury I think), Voodoo, Drago, Galloping Ghost, & Strega (highly modified P-51's), and Czech Mate, a highly modified Yak-11 trainer with a P&W radial. None of them are really replicas but are still awesome tricked-out aircraft. The only replica I know of that races at Reno is the Thunder Mustang, although it races in Sport Class.
@LancasterAce
Grant County International Airport is a public airport, so yes NKR can land their any time. But Rainier's 2 flight centers are private property, so no taxing over to those. ;) Rainier actually has plans to develop 1 or 2 private airports/bases in the deserts of Oregon, Utah, or Nevada for more private development of our defense projects.
@EternalDarkness THANK YOU for clarifying that! That's what I believed the tag meant as well, and intention is the basis for determining what tags go on your build.
@randomusername
A gaming journal or buzzfeed isn't going to make a hit-piece against SP because someone "misrepresented electric vehicles and their propulsion". I came to SP to freely create whatever original airplane designs and concepts I wanted to make, not walk on egg shells in fear of offending one specific person in SP worried over nothing, or offend a group of people or game journalists outside the aviation community who probably have no clue how airplanes even fly.
@randomusername
By that logic, that must mean everyone who's made a non-mod laser system in SP is being deceitful or "misrepresenting lasers" because their lasers aren't true lasers as they used a gun and extended it's bullet xml values to shoot out like a straight laser.
@randomusername
For the love of God no one is being targeted and I'm not targeting anyone. It was just a neat unique airplane concept drawing that I thought would make a great simple build, and then I threw in a bit of uniqueness with the idea of a hybrid electric propulsion system. The last I checked creativity, imagination, and a bit of roleplaying were all major aspects of SP and determining tags and definitions for planes, even if their in-game systems/performance aren't actually like the real thing.
@Kerbango
Oh wow that sounds neat. That would be great if you could link me that mod. I just finished a rough basic prototype of an SSTO shuttle. Yea Randomusername is the only user I've seen complaining about this tag nonsense.
@randomusername
This design incorporates a plasma ramjet that uses electricity to super-heat the incoming airstream passing through the ramjet for extra thrust/propulsion, and gets that electricity via an electric generator that is driven by a gas-burning turbofan engine. It may not involve legit electric-propulsion in-game, but the concept, intention, and design sure does, and therefore I'm not removing it from the electric tag.
@randomusername
The closest thing SP EVER got to "hate" was the Jelly invasion and all the Jelly fans who hated on SP because we told them to stop spamming Jelly-planes. Your making an absolute huge deal over a simple tag and it's definition.
@CrashFighter05
Your wish is my command.

Lol I never though this would get more than 5 downloads and 3 upvotes XD
@Aerofy Probably one of the most recent modern air racer attemps were David Rose's Renegade/Mach Buster design and Wildfire Air Racing's "Wildfire" Racer, although it supposedly only flew once.
@DeezDucks
Maybe the design is cursed to always have problems, even in virtual reincarnations.
Damn, this is a beautiful airplane design!
Noice
@JamesBoA
wait till you fly it
@45678
This was like my best plane 1.9 years ago but my standards & build style has greatly improved since then.

@Notaleopard
Thanks I guess
@Aeromen
yee
@Notaleopard
OOF
Yea sure go ahead I mean I'm not using it or anything
don't even bother landing this thing you'll just end up doing a couple of front flips n' cartwheels
me likey
Cool plane bro but please give the original author credit for the QFA-44's fuselage, otherwise this would be stealing.
@panzerisawsome
Thanks! :)
@panzerisawsome
Why thank you, I'm glad you enjoy my designs!
Cool. I think I'll join in on this one.
@EngineerOtaku
Thanks!

cool story bro
its adorable
@randomusername
Maybe later.
747-8 or 737 MAX would be great. :)
neato
@randomusername
Not likely.
I agree, I miss the tournaments. :(
@randomusername
Wth does that have to do with SP?

Notice how they are mostly all soviet-cold war-era vehicles?
