Our new mobile artilary vehicle. (Operation) Press 1 and VTOL down to lower the legs, then press 1 again to lock them. Press 2 to rotate the gun, trim raises the gun and 3 fires it. Hitting the fire button will explode the shell, so it can be used as a AAA gun. Yaw steers it. Enjoy!

    @TheOwlAce Actually when controlled by pitch its like putting your' foot on the gas pedal and taking it off so that you are coasting. You can also use engine braking by reversing though breaks still slow you down faster.

    I revised my tank that was supposed to be in our RP so that it has a full chassis and less fuel and a lot of belly balast. I was able to take her across the Ice Island and up onto a mountain overlooking the missile site. I fired off a few rockets at them then ran away from the incoming missile back down over the ridge and kept popping back up to fire at them. XD Eventually though I goofed up and accelerated forward and didn't stop and back up in time to avoid the missile. lol

    @DragonAerotech Thats not a bad Idea! Ill have to use that next time. But one problem is that you can speed it up too fast and have no control.

    I've gotta hand it to you, this is a cool idea!! Its a shame we can't fire multiple explosive shells or have the option of proximity fuse warheads but it's awesome that you came up with an idea for a flak gun that is reasonably realistic. XD I also like the foot pads so that the chassis isn't swiveling around due to the pull of the rotator, great use for the pistons. (I'll probably be borrowing from these ideas down the line! lol) By the way I DL'd a truck a few days ago that completely changed my view on how to work cars/trucks/tanks - use pitch instead of throttle for the engine! That way you can more accurately control your' speed AND you get the benefit of reverse as well!
