My first working VR Plane!
Okay, I finished it! This plane doesn't have 150 parts, but it's very close to that so I think it counts.
Fictional History
Development began with the goal of making a light aircraft that had VTOL capability.
The plane started with thousands of problems, mainly reliability and range. However, the "Prototype 01" managed to fix most of them, but the range was still low, and the low reliability was not fully fixed.
The project was canceled after an accident that left the pilot paralyzed and with memory loss. "Prototype 02" was supposed to fix everything about this plane, but the accident made the project lose all reputation.
Only 2 were built, and one of them was "Prototype 02" which was partially built, and when the project was abandoned it was dumped in a barn and is still there today.
Creator note
This plane was a lot of fun to build, and it's also my first VR aircraft! I took the opportunity to enter the VTOL challenge, and here it is. My masterpiece!
Check the instructions to see how it takes off.

Hello, could make this plane a successor to that challenge:
