Auto Credit Based on SkyFly's Dornier 328 Jet v-16.4

ALMOST FINISHED

1:1 Scale

Full Interior

Custom Landing Gear

Oh and also I've had steam for about 3 months and i started building this at 23 hours. No other hours on the steam version has been on anything else so I have spent a total of 87 HOURS on this!!!

As you can tell, I've added the wings and engines. But the best bit is that it can now fly (All be it not very well)


INSTRUCTIONS

-The engines are powered using activation group 1 & 2
-The flaps use activation group 3 + VTOL down
-The Landing Gear is simply using the gear button
-The door using activation group 4 + VTOL down
-The cabin camera using activation group 5 + VTOL up


TO FLY


TO GET OFF THE GROUND
You will want to turn on activation group 1 + 2 then turn on activation group 3 then set the VTOL slider to half way down. Put the throttle to 75% and wait till you reach around 220 mph or 354 kph (I know that is quite un realistic but I will try to improve this soon). When you reach 5000ft set the VTOL slider back up to normal. SAFE FLIGHT


TO GET BACK ON THE GROUND
You will want to slowly pull the throttle back to 60% wait till you are under 240 mph or 386kph. You will now have to fluctuate the throttle percentage between 60 and 50%. Turn on activation group 3 again and pull the slider all the way down, you will want to land the aircraft gently it's quite fragile.

This a large numbered build and my Mac is starting to not cope, we'll just have to see how many parts it takes to finish the cockpit, details to fly might change in the forecoming future so stay tuned.
