Auto Credit Based on WinsWings's VR-100 Challenge
+++PREFACE: Sorry for messing up the screenshot. I hate this mechanic in SP. I’ll try adding some more in the description.+++
Trying something new, always fun. It’s basically a barebones light sport aircraft reminiscent of the classics.
Also my first low-part build with VR in mind…well, kind of: All basic functions have a corresponding switch/control in the cockpit that should be VR-compatible. But big DISCLAIMER: I don’t have VR, so I can only go by what the game tells me.
Not much more to it. Hope you enjoy taking the Pigeon for a spin!
Controls:
VTOL down: flaps
Trim: well…trim
AG1: Battery/ main power
AG2: Ignition/start engine
AG3: lights
AG8: close/open canopy (default is open)

Thanks, @jamesPLANESii, for your upvote. This actually means a lot coming from an absolute expert builder such as yourself!
@Sockdragger thanks, I‘m glad you enjoy flying the Pigeon, and I appreciate the kind words! The actual wings are scaled way down and hidden inside the cosmetic wings right at the wingroots. I think they’re marked green or something, so I can find them myself 😉
Nice little plane with lots of nice details. And on top of that, it flies really well too.
Ps, where did you hide the wings? You didn't just custom-made them out of fuselage parts?
@MrCOPTY Cool beans! Appreciate the feedback and the praise.
@Krikkit42 I Tested It Out, Nice Design & Kinda A Good Cockpit, The Best Thing Was The Fly Characteristics This Plane Fly Like A Cessna 172 Epic, I'll Move This To My Favourites & May Someday I'll Make A Successor To This
:)
@Krikkit42 lol, i thought it's the in-game one, i didn't tested it yet but I'll do now
@MrCOPTY Well, in fact I didn’t. It’s custom-made my friend! Although I will say I did try out the premade one in an attempt to save parts, but I really couldn’t make it fit, so I didn’t end up using it after all.
@Krikkit42 I Love The Fact That You Used In Game Canopy Like This, Good
@WinsWings It Should Be In Top 10 List ig
@WinsWings @Vikram123 Thanks guys!
@Vikram123 this is so much under rated @Zaineman @MrCOPTY look
Nice
