My first honest attempt at building an Arwing from the Starfox game series. This design is heavily influenced by the original NES title.

ATTENTION!

This plane lacks landing gear until I figure out a good way to attach some (feel free to attempt to do so yourself)

Before take off:

It's easiest to start on the runway.

1- Activate AG-1, slider up, Deactivate AG-1
2- Slider down to just above 25% mark.
3- change locations to air
4- Throttle up and fly.

She's a little wobbly, but stable enough. Feel free to leave comments and suggestions on how I can improve this design.

HAPPY FLYING!

    @Austinowen Yeah, it is a little wonky on the controls. Next version should be better.
