Wow. Talk about an awesome full scale for RealFlight. Note that the jet-engine assisted plane climbed 3,000 ft vertically in 15 seconds. This variant achieves the exact same thing! This is my attempt at the Red Rocket.
■Maximum indicated airspeed limit
◦220+ mph (read here: PLUS +220) LOL
■Cruise speed
◦ummmm....? *scratches head*
■Stall speed
◦Power-off ABOUT 65 mph INCREASED EQUIPMENT WEIGHT
■Takeoff Run
◦UNKNOWN WITH THIS POWER CONFIGURATION!!!!
This WACO is absolutely stunning. With only the radial engine running, the plane can nearly hover. Add in the jet engine, and she turns into a real ROCKET! The ground handling and the way the suspension reacts is really quite great, the stall speed and everything is right, spot-on. MUCH thanks to the maker(s) of this aircraft!!!!!
CONTROLS
Dual Rates Switch: Controls dual rates for the elevator ONLY (ailerons and rudder stay full rate) and toggles the RUDDER COORDINATION crosswire. Up for full elevator and auto rudder on, down for lowered elevator rates and auto rudder off.
Rotary Knob: No flaps. Controls the MAIN WHEEL BRAKES, with gradual brake increase.
Retracts Switch: Toggles smoke.
3-Position Switch: Lowest position engages the JET ENGINE!!!!
