    @Delphinus Seems good except for the jet engines. Not to be a bit pushy, but the rules imply that there is to be only props involved

    I just realised that I used eight-bladed props. The HP and all other stats are not modded. Will my entry still be counted. If not, just remove two blades from the propellers. (Might perform somewhat worse)

    @ValtsuAircraftIndustries yeah. I am looking for vtol and stol, so maybe this challenge should be renamed.

    Not exactly VTOL, but it's got a takeoff run of about 5 feet.
