This is my attempt at recreating the model of the Black Pyro spaceship from the Mercenary Expansion of the legendary Descent 3 game from about 15 years ago. I am sure some may remember this and if so I hope you enjoy! Making the model able to fly was a challenge, I was not able to get it to fly with the large jet engines so I used VTOL Nozzels instead. Making it fly is still very difficult and in order to do so, you must shift the VTOL lever up ever so slightly to balance the craft in flight. Note: Yaw on this craft acts like a roll control surface. If you have any ideas as to make this fly better by all means change something, but If you do and share the creation, please credit me in the description.

@MrMecha Thanks for the link, had not seen this until now, cant wait to see where this goes, it looks awesome!
I know there is a lot I could fix to this, but like I said right now it is really hard to fly, will look into making improvements soon, thanks for the feedback.
Very cool looking but not the easiest to fly
You should put some missiles on it
