It's a plane that uses a self supporting airfoil to fly. The throttle should be treated as pitch, you cruise at around 20% throttle. VTOL is kinda like an additional pitch and trim, use this sparingly or you might collaspe the chute. turn by banking using roll, yaw, VTOL, and increasing throttle. AG-1 is for a gyro, use this when landing. Have fun!

@KnightOfRen It's both subjective and objective.
@rexzion
unpopular opinion: cringe is subjective
Looks very interesting, but not weirdly interesting per your usual builds. Flies alright, I really like the concept. I saw a lot of variations of successors of this thing. I'll give them a try eventually.
THIS IS SO COOL! also, is it ok if I use this parachute?
“Barnacle Head” ... “What was that?” “You forgot your mayonnaise.” “Thanks”
@Galpinju01 thanks
@AsteroidAsteroidTheBook i love your pfp
bruh why KoR being CRINGE in the comments thats my job stupid
I'll tag you on an unlisted post. I had to leave the game to do some other stuff
@KnightOfRen expect it's been done before, and it's the kind of thing that is funny once.
@FishMiner
Because your sense of humor is clearly cringe if you cannot laugh from that link
@FishMiner
Yes i do.
@KnightOfRen oh my friend, you do not want to go down that route...
@FishMiner
No. Your horrible sense of humor is cringe.
@KnightOfRen bro you posted cringe
@FishMiner
Why did you delete it
@KnightOfRen no
lol
@FishMiner the fact that no one has ever done such a construction before and I like it
Imma try to upgrade this thing. It's perfect already
@MethaManAerospace try giving it airbrakes on the ends of the chute hooked up to yaw, so the thing has actual yaw.
@FishMiner It's great! I've been thinking about how to do it for a while, but never did anything...
I might do a hang glider challenge for rigid, semi rigid and paragliders... (bonus points for paragliders ;) )
@MethaManAerospace yeah, it could definitely be improved given I built this in a couple hours max.
Very cool!!! This is the first successful paramotor! I think it can also be improved, I'll try something...
