Auto Credit Based on Cedy117's DCH6 Twin Otter seaplane
My last modification of Cedy117's Twin Otter. This time I built a whole new set of custom floats for it. Works decent enough. I also swapped the modded jet engine in the body for a VTOL engine and put some "trim" nozzles on the floats.
When taking off, slide VTOL up just slightly, then gently throttle forward. Keep gradually increasing throttle (don't jam it all the way to 100% all at once). Just take it nice and easy, and ease the stick back to a gradual take-off. Once you're in the air, use the VTOL slider to adjust your vertical trim. That's all.
Thanks to Cedy117 for his awesome Twin Otter!
HAPPY FLYING!
