Description:
The Imatzin Bird was the Imatzin Sky Raiders first attempt to make a plane, but they failed over and over again and just turned it into another war balloon. The upside is that it was small, could carry lot's of weapons, and it was cute.
This little boi is equipped with a fine amount of anti-air missiles, nine bombs, and a tri-gun. Two seats as well, one for the captain and the other for the weapons operator.
Controls:
- Yaw to steer (a bit buggy, don't know why)
- Throttle for throttle
- Action-1 to toggle on/off input for from prop (recommended to enable for better steering.)
- Action-2 + Roll + Pitch: Turret control
- Action-8: Gyroscope
Notes:
The steering has a weird bug to it, I'm not sure if it is the gyroscope or the weight, but I really have no idea how to fix it at the moment.

@Farewellntchii That sounds interesting, you can tag me if you want. I got to admit, weird aircraft tend to hold my attention better, though the ones I look at are the old bizarre Prototypes from Russia.
Note: If life ain't tough, you're doing something wrong
@Farewellntchii Quite busy, specially with a full time job now. Been playing around on a game called Stormworks a bit as well. One of these days I might find time to build another "thing"
How you doing?
NOT
@Tsuchiisan I actually think your airships are amazing, and with the AWACS Airship, that was inspiration for the Imatzin airship balloon style, and thanks for the tip!
@Tsuchiisan The little blimp that could.
