"The X-12 Vespid.
A small VTOL aircraft used extensively by Crimson Spectre.
Generally used for scouting and anti-infantry purposes.
Its small frame and maneuverability make it excellent for use closer to the ground. While its armour may be weak, A group of vespids can be a terrifying sight..."
A really simple VTOL, I designed the Vespid to be sort of a mix between the Velocipods used by Syndrome's henchmen in The Incredibles, As well as the traditional flying saucer UFO design.
It flies like a dream (For me at least) and is probably the most fun to fly VTOL I have seen on this game.
It starts to take off at around 33% thrust.
If you find the RCN control to be a bit sluggish, You can turn off AG-8 and turn on AG-7 to enable the tilt rotor mode which would canonically be the main method of rotating the craft.
It is very touchy though, So expect to crash spectacularly if you over turn.
Over all, I love how this turned out. It is really simple, But it looks cool and it fly's really well as a VTOL.
P.S. For anyone wondering, The guns I used were not the default wing guns. I XML modded them to have the same properties as the FN P90.

@GlitchPlayz Do what you want. Although it may be a bit hard to work with. Make sure you don't accidentally mess with the prop (Whenever I do that, I need to mod the XML again.) And you know, Keep it balanced.
