This is Capsol, a manned aircraft built to make a vertical landing. Anywhere. The controls are tricky to get used to. To have a good landing, you MUST keep the aircraft up-right the entire time. To do this, constantly tweak the thrusters with the throtle. Use roll and pitch to manuver it and keep it pointing up. Good luck. My main mission with this machine is to eventually attach a rover to it and explore the inside of the volcano, and some of the far away islands
