SpaceShipTwo

905 DarkScientist  8.2 years ago

Controlls:

Mothership:
W/S = Pitch
A/D = Roll
AG 2= Activate/Deactivate engines
Spacecraft:
VTOL SLIDER = Pitch
Q/E = Roll
AG 1 = Detach, Activate/Deactivate engines

I made a pretty simple but fully working replica of the privatspacecraft know as "SpaceshipTwo".
The Creation is intendet to Land Both aircrafts safe on ground.
Both aircrafts use different controlls to keep them in air at the same time.

How to Control it:
The "Main" Aircraft is the Mothership.
You get all its data displayed on your screen(Current Speed, current Hight, current orientation on all axes). You use this data to keep it stable in air while your camera is focused on the "Second" Aircraft.
How its explaind at the beginning, you can controll both aircrafts at the same time, this is the fun part.
Manage to get some hight of your choice, detach, fly around a little bit with the Spacecraft and land both safe on the ground

A little tip: You should stay near the Mothership on a horizontal line(how high you are doesnt matter). The Main Aircraft works as Island loader. It's Pretty good to stay inside the loaded island area when you want to land the Spacecraft.

Have Some Fun with it, even if it doesnt looks the best.

PS: you get some imaginary bonuspoints if you land both crafts on the same landingstrip.

PPS: I also made a standalone version with normal controls of the Spacecraft.

    This thing is amazing! The spacecraft glides down like an eagle to its nest.

    @Stingray Its not usual to use the VTOL slider for pitching butif you give it some time , then it gets pretty easy to steer.
