That's right, 𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘺𝘤𝘭𝘦 𝘨𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘔𝘪𝘎-3

Why did I make this?
Well, I wanted to try making a Mig-3 since last year (I don't like doing replicas), and I finally found time to do it. The funny part is, three quarters the way through I decided to do my own thing with it and give it 𝘴𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘭𝘺 bigger wings and add a nose gear, which resulted in 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴.

Another build for my future challenge, enjoy.

Fixes:

Ver. 1.0.1
- Gear synchronization (edited the funky tree code for the landing gear and the doors. The gear now retracts fully before the doors close)

Ver. 1.0.2
- Edited the name of the aircraft (I accidentally named it Magna instead of Magnus. I fixed this so now when you download the aircraft it has the right name)
