FTC-1

375 Elishathomas02  4.3 years ago

The FTC-1 (flying troop carrier) is a bit of an odd ball of an aircraft. It has tilting rotors like the V-22 Osprey, but has a high power jet engine on top. Its performance startlingly surpassed my expectations as it could fly with the jet engine alone with the rotor not powered and the huge rotors could power the aircraft forward over 600kph no problem, and with the engine turned on expect over 750kph. The controls are simple, it flys like a plane with the rotors tilted forward and with them tilted down it flys like a helicopter. The vtol slider controls the rotor throttle and tilt function, as well as a winch. Action1 is for the jet(controlled by throttle), Action2 is for tilting the rotors, Action3 is the collective(controlled by throttle), Action4 is the winch, and Action5 is the magnet.
