My take on the Boeing 747-8i. Might be a bit too long but eh it flies very well. V1 is around 150-160mph, Landing Speed appx. 130mph, the rudder is capable of handling the yaw moment created when 2 of the engines on one side shut down, and diverting from the 747s true design, ive added folding wingtips as a homage to its replacement, the Boeing 777x series. Flaps are operated with VTOL Activation Group 1, Reverse Thrusters (cleverly located on the pylons with VTOL nozzles ;)) are operated with VTOL Activation Group 2, and Folding Wingtips are activated with VTOL Activation Group 3. I really spent a ton of time optimizing this aircraft for realistic, stabalized flight and its weight and size hopefully emulate that. it operates most efficiently at 32,000ft with thrust at appx 16 percent. this gives you appx 8-10 hrs of flying time (which for SimplePlanes unmodded fuel/engines is good). This model was completely built on iOS so it is compatible with mobile devices. Hope you enjoy and Happy New Year
