I can't stop smiling ;)
What can I say, It's a real gem and an absolute Joy to fly, and the engine is something to be seen and heard I won't spoil it for you. If your like me and have a real love of flight in SL do yourself a favor and pick this one up you will not be disappointed.
P.S. this is from my partner after her first flight: THIS IS ONE BEEFY MO FO!!
Great plane!
Love this plane, lots of fun to fly. Crosses sims really well and lands like a charm.
Just amazing
What else .....
Fun , easy to fly ( but can be wild ^^), sound like a Tiger .
Really fun and well done . Congrats to the builders team
A must to have, if you want something special.......do not hesitate
And last and not least friendly and helpful creators .....sooooo what are you waiting for ^^
Stunning Looks & handles like a dream!
I am very happy to be a proud owner of the Hunter S.21!...Handling and sim crossing i found to be very smooth and i really love those sounds!...texture work is immaculate & you can tell instantly that a lot of hard work and love has gone into creating such a beauty. Top quality build and a very friendly and cool seller - 5 Stars
The paint packs also available from the seller are fantastic and i look forward to future creations.
Get one as you won't regret it!
Fun plane, Awesome sounds.
I’ll start with things I like about the plane
1) The sounds are nice and visceral. This is the most realistic sounding piston engine plane I’ve flown for a long time in SL. When you fire up the engine it’s vicious, you know your controlling an old plane.
2) The texturing and detail is very well done. This feels like a 1930’s aircraft and it’s a joy to fly in mouse look.
3) I love the wave rocking of the craft when it’s rezed in water.
4) Built in disconnect beacon so you can get back to your craft quickly when the sim monster eats you.
There’s a few other things I enjoy but those are some of the highpoints.
The lows:
1) While it CAN technically carry a second AV, that person is going to be 3” from the propeller so you will get O.o from them
2) The craft, even in cruise mode, is a bit twitchy to fly. I’d like to see in a future update, a mode which makes it flying “more realistic” like an MA plane where you can increase it’s “weighted feel”. Add that and the craft is perfect.
All in all, for the price this is a solid buy and has a lot of potential
cute and fun
This is one cute and fun plane it flies smoothly even at low frame rates and in laggy areas. Controls are positive and responsive in cruise mode and although its a sea plane runway landing is possible and produces nice array of sparks as it scrapes along the ground which is fun.
my only gripe well two actually is taking off it seem to stick to the ground for a long time and also the beacon (to find the plane if you crash) self activates after standing (which will cause the plane to delete after 30 mins) so you need to remember to turn it off after exiting if you want to park it.. these are very minor things so all in all we have a fab vintage plane that flies incredibly well
