"Heh, Usually we can't get NEAR flight units. They're way too expensive for us grunts."
Introducing my most ambitious project yet, YoRHa's Ho229 Flight Unit Type B, piloted by Nier:Automata's protagonist herself, 2B. VTOL up engages lift thrusters, with approx. 80% being neutral hover. Raise landing gear to witness the most overly complicated transformation ever, as the whole frame shifts into flight mode. While hovering, the flight unit is incredibly maneuverable, with familiar helicopter style controls. Once ready, you can engage main thrust, and turn off lift jets to fly like a plane. Transition between flight and hover is dead easy, requiring nothing but turning back on the lift jets and slowing down. No fumbling with action groups at all.
Notes:
- Do not exceed 20% forward thrust while flying in landing mode, it will topple forwards.
- If the slow auto leveling in flight mode bothers you, stabilisation can be disabled with AG8.
Enjoy!

This is awesome, one of the coolest transforming designs that I've seen. Stellar work.
Your planes are so sexy hahaha!
i tried it and i liked the transform
@Slipstream747 Thanks :D
@PhilipTarpley XD Yea, I don't even know how many rotators I used to make that possible, but in that mode you don't have to worry about thrust, and can gun it to 100% Maybe I should edit that description lol.
@KCferrari Holy cow! I thought you meant "gear up" as in "get ready", haha...oops. I knew I was missing something, but thought the overall design was awesome as it was. That is an amazing transformation.
@typeZERO This is from the recent Nier game, not an anime. I suppose it's a very anime-like game though.
@PhilipTarpley Thanks, appreciated :D Darn, you didn't show it transform, that's the best part >.<
Nice job! I made a little video of it and shared it on Twitter
