DoubleEnder
The real world DoubleEnder was a home built in a joint effort by Alec D. Wild, Eric Lewis (LewAero Works), Engineered by Douglas Keller, and later iterated/modified by Peter Anderson. This unique aircraft started development in the mid 2000s as a Piper PA-18 and then made its public reveal in various Super Cub Forums. The aircraft gets its name from its unique “pusher-puller” set of in-line Rotax 9 series engines. It can often be seen equipped with a custom built belly pod that doubles as an aux... The real world DoubleEnder was a home built in a joint effort by Alec D. Wild, Eric Lewis (LewAero Works), Engineered by Douglas Keller, and later iterated/modified by Peter Anderson. This unique aircraft started development in the mid 2000s as a Piper PA-18 and then made its public reveal in various Super Cub Forums. The aircraft gets its name from its unique “pusher-puller” set of in-line Rotax 9 series engines. It can often be seen equipped with a custom built belly pod that doubles as an auxiliary fuel tank. A notable feature of the aircraft’s design included a large bubble canopy, offering the pilot a stunning view from the cockpit. Other design elements included a fully actuating horizontal stabilizer for trim, 35” bush tires equipped for off-airport operations, and automatic leading edge slats on the primary wing surface in addition to large spoilerons that greatly assist roll rate during flight. The DoubleEnder also featured a fully free-castering tailwheel that allowed for precise ground maneuvering in very tight spaces; perfect for sandbars in the backcountry. Our digital recreation of such an iconic aircraft seemed fitting for our team as our current portfolio consists heavily of some of the more eccentric airframe designs. Our past projects take a heavy emphasis on STOL/Bush aircraft and our goal with the DoubleEnder was to produce the most accurate digital recreation of this bird with all the current information publicly available. This project is considered a “flagship” release with heavy emphasis on systems depth, dynamic and reactive wear/tear that shows visually on the model in addition to affecting aircraft systems and handling. Packed into this package is a lot of the existing technology developed during the Wilga in addition to all new technology never seen before in any Got Friends product.
