Wow, this is my first plane in a while... I need to share more... Anywho, this aircraft, based on another person's, is a VTOL capable A-10 U.S. Airforce Warthog. Armed to the teeth, because of its VTOL capabilities, it can land and take off in remote areas, perfect for combat!

Instructions:

Take off - Angle engines to 45 degrees forward. Pull pitch all the way back to avoid spinning. Wait until desirable altitude. Angle engines full forward. Turn gyro off (AG8)

Landing - Turn on Gyro. Throttle to 50%. Angle engine 45 degrees backward. Pull up for gentle landing. Quickly turn engine off (Remote landing site) or angle engine forward at 30 degrees and throttle to 35% to hover to end of runway. At end of runway, angle engines full back and throttle down to 20%. Then brake.
