Skid steer forklift
I have been thinking about a skid steer for a while, and I decided to make it today. The wheels on either side will reverse and forward to make this be able to hava a zero turn radius! It drives like a normal car (roll and pitch) and VTOL and the other one control the forklift. I also made a small crate to test the forklift part. You can remove it and put somthing else if you want to. It can go about 100 mph but takes a while to accselerate, also once you get to about 85 mph the crait will fall of because of the wind. This is (as I said before) a skid steer, and I just put the forklift on it to demonstrat how good it is. Try putting on some other stuff! It weighs 20,000 pounds, and that might seem like a lot, but 16,000 of the pounds are just the weights in the back. They are to balance out the forklift for heavy lifts. It goes faster without them. You could make this into a race car if you wanted too, and it would still steer quite well!
Also, because of how the steering is set up, be careful of mirroring the aircraft. Use the single part mirror instead, and if you accsidemtily miror it just re connect to wheels to their individual motors. (The back wheels have the same motor)
