I'm about to run out of unlisted posts, so here's a flight system! The AXIS system automatically makes corrections to zero the rate of rotation about all major axes. The result is, in my opinion, a very fun flight experience.
Feel free to try the system out! Just be sure to start it in the air.
My next project will most likely use this flight system.

@LobsterBisque128 Go for it!
I’m going to use this if it’s all right with you
@Grroro Not sure - I would have to test it myself, which I do not have time for
@spefyjerbf considering that it compensates for roll and/ or pitch, a modified version of
clamp(Pitch - PitchRate/200 ,-1,1)should work right? (for rotators)@Grroro Go for it!
@spefyjerbf i was thinking of making a revamped version were the amount of engines is reduced and rotators are added to compensate. I would just go ahead and try but I felt like asking you because you originally made it
I see. goes off to find out how the heck to do that
@TheChosenOne Each thruster is designed to fire in the opposite direction of the aircraft’s rotation. This counteraction of rotation makes the aircraft stable.
How does this work, exactly?
@spefyjerbf yeah, that's why I want to make one
@rexzion Hm. This is the only flight system I know other than standard flight with wings.
@spefyjerbf I don't know where to start or what to do to, so I am need help. just something that simulates how an RC plane would fly.
wings cannot be used as they act glitchy at small sizes
@spefyjerbf this flight system not 4 my plane tho
@rexzion I guess I do lol. Feel free to use this flight system for your plane! Just give credit where appropriate. I can also answer some questions if needed, too.
anyways, I'm working on a flight system for my mini planes, it has to work with small things and use no wings.
since I'm a dumb-dumb monkey at Funky Trees, I think you can help
@spefyjerbf the fact that you managed how to decipher my fairly vague comment
is insane, you speak alien.
@rexzion Know how it works? I did an in-depth write up in Ordidyn-L’s Technical Documentation.
.
TL:DR - lots of Funky Trees and derivatives.
I need to know
@spefyjerbf alright thanks! Can't wait to see that too
@Flightsonic That is essentially what my next upload does, but of course! This system is free for anyone to use and modify.
Mind if I borrow the principle of this? I'm eager to try to make an emulated version of how a spacecraft would fly with directional thrust opposed to lift surfaces, and I think its relatively easy? I honestly don't know lol
Very cool!
@spefyjerbf ill send you the edited version i have

@robloxweponco Thanks! I’ll mess with wings a bit to see how it flies.
Added wings and tinkered around with the engine power a little, and it now flies somewhat like yourwive's OSTCVS flight system. Without wings, it kinda just drops out of the sky, with the edits i made, it can now sustain level flight.
Also, great work! This is something so simple yet super cool. I wouldnt have figured this out
