Auto Credit Based on spefyjerbf's Cellestion WIP
By itself, the Cellestion is not very impressive. What makes the Cellestion impressive is the two weapons modules that orbit it. Each module is armed with 2 miniguns and 1 rocket pod launcher.
How to control the weapons modules:
VTOL up will have them orbit horizontally. In other words, VTOL up will let you land and take off without the modules giving you trouble.
VTOL center will have the modules orbit vertically. This is best for flying in general.
Note that the plane piches up when the VTOL is up. Also note that the plane is unstable when you change the VTOL bar.
VTOL down does nothing special, except letting you crash the jet easier.

Holy mother of mods
Nice
@spefyjerbf Thanks!
@CreeperProGaming @WillB88 @points @LeWhaleShark I have posted a tutorial on how to do this in the forums. Its a lot to read, but its worth it.
Link to the Forum Post
@CreeperProGaming Yep
@spefyjerbf all those wings just for stability??
@CreeperProGaming The wings are for stability. The center of the orbiting mechanism puts some wonky forces on the plane. I will post the details in a forum post tomorrow.
Are all the wings for fuel?
Are all the wings for fuel?
@spefyjerbf Yeah! Thats a really good idea. This plane is so graceful in flyby view
@spefyjerbf ya that be a good idea... I was trying to get anther one by looking at it and that didn't work
@CreeperProGaming Read the comment below this. I want your feedback. Thanks mate.
I'm trying to decide if I should make a forum post about the inner workings of the orbiting. Do you think that would be a good idea?
How dose the orbit thing work?
Awesome!
@LeWhaleShark Nudging
Holy Crap! This is amazing! How the heck did you pull this off! Mods?
Why has no one thought of this before! It's so creative, like some super sci-fi awesomeness
Awesome!
It's like in the old arcade games. xD
