Optimized for Low Physics.

Start only at Water Locations or Mid Air Locations

To Cruise in Hydrofoil Mode :

1.Activate 1, 2, and 3.

2.VTOL Set slightly up, it's hard to find a good balance, but it's rewarding if you can.

3. Thrust to 40 - 60. it should lift itself slightly and cruise at 80 - 100 mph. You can also set AG3 (Head/Main Body) To Main Position.

Note: To turn during hydrofoil mode, just roll. Yaw helps too.

Aircraft Mode :

1. Be in Hydrofoil Mode first. with AG3 in default position, that means only AG2 Activated.

2. Thrust to 100 percent,

3. Once in the air, you can either
-reduce thrust
-set VTOL down, a bit or a lot. depending on the amount of lift needed

Another Note : VTOL Up AG2 is not suitable for flying, and will severely reduce turning ability,

Ag 1 = Engines
Ag 2 = Wing Dihedral
Ag 3 = Main Body AoI
Ag 4,5,6 = Wee Bombs.

It Flies Waay better without Bombs.

    It's a unique design, that's for sure. It is hard to fly!

    @Ctracerx2 i.'ll sum it up = put AG2 and 3 on, VTOL UP for hydrofoil/takeoff mode, VTOL DOWN for aircraft cruise, drop bombs (456) for better performance. put AG3 to normal for low drag. see, easy!
