VT-191 Korinth Dropship

53.5k Ephwurd  7.5 years ago

Controls:

Take-off:
- full throttle to take-off (or whatever throttle percentage you want).
- once airborne, retract the landing gear. It will automatically switch to flight mode.

Landing/Hover:
- decrease throttle to 30%, then extend the landing gear. Do this in this particular order!
- Yaw helps in maneuvering, although it only works at slow speeds.

Additional Controls:
- AG1 to activate nose turret. VTOL for aiming.
G/Landing Gear to switch to/from Flight to Hover/Landing mode.


The VT-191 Korinth is the mainstay dropship of the Continuum Defense Force and is used by all branches of the Continuum military. Commisioned in 3172, the Korinth has had multiple upgraded variants built to specialize in their assigned military branches, and this base variant has seen multiple performance upgrades ever since. The Korinth is capable of carrying 6 troopers and has multiple internal racks for weapon and equipment storage. It also features a unique atmospheric propulsion system, in which it uses its twin side-mounted ion nacelles as thrusters instead of its main engines to conserve energy. The Korinth is popular among new pilots due to its simple flight mechanics, allowing them to learn flying the vessel with little difficulty, and has gained quite the reputation in the military, as its right balance of speed and durability has made it a versatile craft for any transport operations.

    I wonder how this would work if it was upscaled to have a large flight deck and a hold for say, ~150 soldiers.

    @ZephyrSystems finally! I'm both happy and sad (happy because it'll be out, sad because I don't have a powerful enough PC for that), and of course, just give credit
