A new vertabird thatll be used for a multitude of rules. This craft will work besides the Fw-449. (controls) VTOL is for propeller pitch, Trim to pivot the main rotors. Gear opens the doors and 1 turns on the nav. lights. Enjoy!

That is...A TILT WING!
@CDRxavier This is the newest version.
@DragonAerotech i thnk the gyros make the tail rotor obsilete (xvx)
@TheOwlAce This works pretty well!! She's a bit of a challenge on landing, but I need to adjust my controller settings to continue to use the KB throttle controls since it either wants to throttle all the way up or all the way down, I think that'll make it easier. I'll have to try some of your' flying boats I used to have a challenge controlling back when I solely used KB controls.
One thing I've found since I started using the joystick is that I can REALLY tell when an aircraft is off balance as where with KB controls I could maneuver pretty smoothly despite that issue. I DID try this bird when you first released it but hadn't hooked up my joystick yet. I rather quickly careened into the sea. Not so this time, just came in a little hot on the landing due to cutting too much power/trim on the props. Great work!! You should do an experiment though. Some helicopter designs use contra-rotating rotors to alleviate the need for a tail rotor - perhaps you could try that as an experimental version of this? You have one prop facing up on one side and one prop facing down, buried into a nacelle - just to see if the game physics will register that a tail rotor isn't necessary? The V-22 Osprey doesn't have a tail rotor after all~
@DragonAerotech May latest VTOL.
@TheOwlAce
Great! Cant wait
@General360 What do you think?
@SimpleFlow The next one will be far more improved.
@General360 Ohh Ovo?
@Liquidfox Thank you, thats how helis are I guess.
