The RNP-38 was a experimental VTOL aircraft used by the military to attack naval/ ground bases or targets. It had 3 engines- 2 main, one used to keep the plane from descending in flight mode.

CONTROLS:

Ag2- activate “thrust vectoring” (yaw to control)
Ag8- deactivate gyro (don’t recommend)

MAIN:
Pitch- move engines forward and back to move
Yaw (Ag2) “thrust vectoring” and rudder for turning.

NOTES:
Don’t turn (Ag2/Yaw) too much or you’ll go into an uncontrollable spin (oof)
This can actually move backwards really smoothly I guess
