Light jet fighter drone
FLIGHT INSTRUCTIONS:
The flight characteristics of this plane is pretty intuitive, though something to note is that the aircraft cannot yaw, and becomes unstable if the elevators are fully deflected below 400 kph. The aircraft also tends to veer off to the right upon landing. These issues may be addressed in a future upgraded version.
This aircraft is largely inspired by my friend's new plane, his creation should be linked in the "predecessor" section of this post. Although not nearly as fast or as well armed as some of my other drones, this little guy boasts quite the maneuverability, with an incredible turn rate on-par with thrust vectoring, it is sure to fend off any unwanted visitors. Unfortunately the compact nature of the craft made it quite difficult to implement a cockpit view, to compensate for that, 2 cameras are installed. Use camera 1 to see out of the front sensor array, and use camera 2 to see out the underside of the drone, very useful in landings.
