Description:

WS/AD/QE – pitch/roll/yaw
Space – thrust
CTRL – reverse thrust

LMB – fire flamethrower
T – toggle engines

FPV indicator lights:
Left: "T" – engine toggle checklight
Right: "CAUTION" – engine damage checklight

This plane is an excercise in quirkiness.
The brief was, make a flamethrower dogfighter, but make it a low power biplane.
I tried to build a fancy non-traditional biplane design, with the split foil wings and horizontal double-V tail, as well as weight-saving the bejeebus out of it (lightweight construction using spoilers, fenders and inverted rounded corners), bringing the weight in under just 380kg.
(original goal was 10pc, but I bumped the release version up to 14pc to make it more fun to fly).

Do not expect any combat performance from this, but it is a very nice flying plane.
