Axonos Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 The Axonos team took a trip to the airfield to experience the Mi-2 in person recently. We even took the controls for a bit! It was great learning more about the Mi-2 from several real-life Mi-2 pilots who agreed to help us throughout the development process, ensuring an accurate rendition. Here’s a comparison between the real Mi-2’s landing gear and our model. It's a work in progress, of course. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
