Today’s high performance jets require equally demanding training. Practice using jet, VTOL or both. Aircraft can cruise at just over 1500 mph on full throttle using both jet and VTOL.

Handling Tips

Easiest take off is with both jet and VTOL. Position VTOL slider ¾ up so nozzles point mostly to the rear with a little bit of downward thrust, then apply throttle. Move VTOL slider all the way up once airborne.

Although vertical take off is possible using only VTOL, it is a bit tricky since the aircraft will go unstable if too much throttle is applied or if in vertical take off for too long. Transition to horizontal flight with jet engines soon after vertical take off to stabilize into horizontal flight.
