SubSonex Modified To Scale A-10

Postby Scott99 » Mon Apr 29, 2019 1:28 pm

Surely someone has thought about this...

Seems that with adding a second engine and a reconfigured empennage, the SubSonex could be a decent A-10 doppleganger...anyone thought about what it might take to make this happen?

I'm considering putting a venturi between the stabilizers on our Waiex to mimic the Sub Sonex.

Yes! It's a start...need to fit a living, breathing person inside and do something with that tail...but it's a start!
