Hello!
This is the third revision of the Dragonfly, and I am very pleased with how it turned out.
It shares no parts with the earlier versions—I completely rebuilt everything from scratch.
I don’t have much to say, other than that I’m really glad to finally post this.
Even though the original Dragonfly is a few years old now, it's still one of my favorite creations.
I wanted to see how far I could take it, and I’m very happy with the result.
It was originally intended to be an exploration vehicle for SP2, but it ended up having far more parts than I anticipated.
how to fly:
This machine has two flight modes: hover mode and normal flight mode.
Activate AG1 to enter hover mode. From there, VTOL controls your altitude rate:
VTOL down to rise
VTOL up to sink
The trim controls both the auto-positioning system and the forward engine:
Trim up:
Adjusts the extent of the position-holding system (it aims to reduce your horizontal speed as long as you're below a certain threshold).
Trim down:
Activates the forward flight engines.
Throttle:
Does absolutely nothing.
Activate1:
switch between flight modes
Activate2:
opens the doors
Activate3:
Acitvates the guns
Activate4:
Activates the cannon
Activate5:
Activate Lights
Activate6:
Adds extra pitch authority
Once you have enough forward velocity, you can deactivate AG1 to switch to normal flight mode.
From there, it flies just like a regular plane.
This is the evolution of the craft:
