Extreme damage F2B
« on: March 22, 2010, 10:17:43 PM »


Even if thous 2 wings produce enough lift to fly, there is no way they are that strong to still be attached to the aircraft.

Had the same thing with the opposite wings the other night...i was thinking the same thing, i hardly noticed a reduction in lift, and those two wings would not be able to withstand all the lift that should be on the missing wings... :headscratch:

Also, did you notice the extreme gains in speed? Out runs anything with 1+ wings missing.

I wouldn't call it extreme, but the decreased drag helped a bit.
