    Try adding: "- YawRate/100" into the gyroscope so that the aircraft does not spin from Yaw

    @Bellcat thank you Ford your comment.
    If you use AG 5 and Trim, you can retract the wheels. But it was just an idea how to make a new landing Gear. I think it Looks even more like a bus now xd.
    Yes i know and i also dont like the Gyro but there is no good Option.
    I made the Buttons as big as possiple. So the Cockpit doesnt look too empty.
    I know thats it would be much more Efficient with Wings but i liked the Design without. My calculated Range is about 150miles, which i know is Not enough.

    I can see improvements, but...
    - Is the landing gear even retracted anyways because the ground clearance for the aircraft appears nonexistent (the underbelly is touching the ground).
    - Landing gear probably needs to be a bit bigger. Why not use the stock part named “Landing Gear”?
    - The gyroscope is still there. I guess you really have no choice but to retain the gyroscope there. Sorry.
    - (NEW) I also want to point out that some of the cockpit buttons are way to big and take up too many space in the center console.
    - (NEW) Aircraft would not work without wings, and jet’s are an inefficient way to propel the craft. So why not take the osprey as reference and start to make one big set of straight main wings with rotating propeller pods on either side with xml-resized propellers. Or, you can also put 2 large 8 bladed helicopter blades to create a tandem-rotor aircraft (like the Boeing CH-47 Chinook).
