In Star Trek, a type of warship utilized by the Klingon Empire from the late 23rd century. Group 1=VTOL, group 2=landing gear, group 3=wing angle. Note, forward swept wings cause slight waivering yaw.
Take off: Throttle to 60% and pitch up to stay level, group 2 and VTOL up to retract gear, group 1 and VTOL up to move forward, will need to pitch down with VTOL transition.

50.4k StingrayFor the awesome looks! Launches OK, but still seems unstable during cruise at any throttle.9.7 years ago

50.4k StingrayI recently built a Klingon Bird of Prey II, and another 2000 MPH Klingon Bird of Prey, they both takeoff & fly like normal planes and accept full throttle, so can you check them out and rate? @DethFromAbove @maverickvii9.7 years ago

39.6k maverickvii@Stingray, Go for it. I find if you throttle to only about 50%, you should be able to launch fine.9.7 years ago

50.4k StingrayI like the replication design! Could not get a stable launch, though. Mind if I do some mods to make it more user friendly?9.7 years ago
