Now I have more than 100 points, it's time to celebrate with this, The SwitchBlade II. The second generation of the original SwitchBlade that I uploaded a while ago. This aircraft now has VTOL and two jet engines. Highly maneuverable in high speeds. To take off with VTOL, activate group 1 and throttle to about 50%. While hovering, activate group 2 to use the main engines. After reaching about 200 MPH, you may turn off group 1, or you can keep it activated for some high speed action. With two main engines, the SwitchBlade II is able to reach about 500 MPH. Combining the VTOL engines and main engines will make this plane go above 800 MPH. I would like to say thanks to anyone that rated my planes before, I wouldn't have made it to 100 points without you. So once again, thanks.
