"One might dream of a future in which aircraft are sold much like automobiles..."
The AG-Civ "Taurus" is the first arcraft to become available to all consumers. Its body manipulates the gravity around the craft, making it extremely light. Therefore, the Taurus can fly at speeds comparable to a car. The minimum speed for this craft is about 18mph. Since the speeds were so low, the craft was allowed to be released to the consumer market. Note that this model comes with two small projectile weapons, which require additional liscensing.
Tips:
- When the RCNs are on, go easy on the controls!
- If you re using a PC, try taking off by putting the autopilot on, and then activating the RCNs. VTOL flight!
- Land VERTICALLY by approaching at abut 30mph, then cutting the engines, and turning on the RCNs. Only adjust the pitch when you are a few feet off the ground.
Controls:
Activator 2: Toggle RCNs.

@Alpha6 Definitely. It was designed for civilian use. I'm not sure why I strapped guns on it though.
this isn't made for combat, if you're wondering. I just tried to destroy the convoy and when I received one bullet, the cockpit got flinged out of the island
@Alpha6 Definitely with color scheme. I suppose I have a default palette.
it's appearance resembles Orbidyn-L
@spefyjerbf Thanks
@EvilDoughnut Possibly, but the possibility is low, since I have a lot of exciting projects (irl and SP) planned.
@spefyjerbf Hey, I haven't seen any decent takes on the "Dark Angel" spacecraft from GoF 2. Could you please make one?
Maybe even incorporate it into the maps?
Just a suggestion and request.
Thanks.
@EvilDoughnut If the aircraft can go to space too, then I suppose it is worth more than what it originally was.
It is really worth the consumer's money because I have gone beyond low-earth-orbit with this plane.
COOL again...
@MrSharp I meant to reply... I guess my comment didn't get through. Anyway, low-gravity planes yaw very well... Idk why though.
That's just incredible! One of the best things I've ever driven/flown
How do you get the RCN thrusters to push the plane up
Am I the only one that reads your username "spicy jerk beef"
What a beautiful small plane! (I really want to spotlight it but I'm only 10k QAQ) It's design is perfect!
THAT POWER TO WEIGHT RATIO IS INSANE
@spefyjerbf Thanks
@Mumpsy Go ahead! I look forward to see what you do with them!
@spefyjerbf Is it cool with you if I use your "lightsaber" lights? super cool!
The mass-scaling done here is mind-boggling
Reminds me much of the 'Phantom' shuttle from Star Wars, love it!
@MechWARRIOR57 Thanks! The desc has also been updated to include a full set of controls.
anyway looks cool
first
