TR-3B

21.1k SpartanSR91  9.0 years ago

Of all the aircraft I have seen with my own eyes (CH-47 Chinooks, a C-5 Galaxy, even a B-2 Spirit) the TR-3B is by far the most mysterious. I built this craft in such a way that it can VTOL to a stop in midair, pitch into a full 360 degree flip, then accelerate back to its top speed of 1100 mph, all in matter of seconds. Control group 1 decouples external engine pod (the great big red thing strapped to the bottom of th airframe). Throttle must be around 35% to take off vertically and VTOL MUST be used with pitch to effectivly maneuver at high speeds. Ideal position for VTOL slider at 100% throttle is around one half notch below top of the bar. WARNING engine pod has limited range, stay near the island you spawned on or sudden power loss (and falling out of the sky) will be the result.
