Republic RC-3 Seabee

[thick ember]

Behold, quite possibly the most scrunkly scrimblo seaplane seen sofar.

Has retractable wheels (No tucking, could almost be animated even...)
Is capable of ground and (mainly) water landings

Single engine's are a bit underpowered, and the perfomance should show...
However, A post-modification is possible if the twin-engine version (The UC-1 Twin Bee!) is to be added as well (Which has goofy good takeoff performance)

Maximum capacity of 4
Top speed of 100 knots
Takeoff speed 50 knots

Range, 490 nmi

A funny little thing that we could toodle around with.

TOODLE around with?

[thick ember]

It's barely faster than some ultralights.
Toodlin' around is the most it could do.

It's a goober and does not deserve the word "fly" -- unless it's the twin engine version

[patent wolf]

it doesn't fly

it glides upwards with style

[icy shore]

from what ive heard its a great flying boat.. just very slow

[thick ember]

"Underpowered" is what I've heard, but change the engine from stock and its gold, aparently.

[icy shore]

yeahh, it had the 215 HP franklin engine, a popular upgrade is that 300 hp O-540

great suggestion.. i would love it

[thick ember]

either way, it would be condusive to goobermaxing.
