use vtol for flaps
basic controls are the same as any other airplane.
(pitch is inverted on accident)
to takeoff:
max throttle, 50% flaps.
wait until airplane lifts itself off ground, then raise flaps completely, then climb to at least 4000 feet.
to land:
throttle down to 50 percent until near runway, keep gear open at all times.
use small amounts of flaps to keep your nose up while landing, and always land PERFECTLY level. Once about a half mile from the beginning of the runway, shut throttle off completely, and make sure to come in very low on the glide scope. once on runway, max brakes, trim nose down, and wait for COMPLETE stop.
this plane has a massive flight envelope, allowing for extreme low speed control (flaps) or high speed.
