Auto Credit Based on Kevinairlines's Vtol Challenge
Experimental VTOL aircraft. Made in Slovakia. My entry for VTOL challenge.
Use trim to set angle of engines. Press 8 to turn on/off the control nozzles.
Can land on water.
Vertical take off:
power to 60% to lift off
increase power to 80% and gently push the nose down to increase the speed
decrease angle of engines slowly, at 120 mph you can reset trim.
Vertical landing:
set angle of engines to maximum and reduce power to 55%. Reduce speed to minimum and use power to decrease/incr rease vertical speed. Try to touch the ground as slow as possible and reduce power to 0%. Use brake to stop the plane.
