Herring Gull - Ornithoper

480 zraaa  4.6 years ago

This is my attempt at an ornithoper, its not that good but it was pretty fun to make. It is suppsed to replicate a Herring Gull, kinda fitting given the setting of the game. Controlling it pretty hard however. 1st make sure that you start off at an approach and not an air port. 2nd, push the throttle up to around 70%. 3rd, begin to move the VTOL up and down at a moderate pace. 4th, in order to soar, bring the VTOL back to neutral and fly it like a normal plane. Feel free to make better versions of this, im just making it for fun. Enjoy :)
