I think it would be cool if you took a whack at it. Adding a cockpit, that is. @Chancey21
Haha ok. Well it’s a cool plane man, I like it. @Chancey21
It is a low effort build so probably not @Hyattorama
Maybe @Hyattorama
Do you think it would be possible to add a cockpit? @Chancey21
Yeah that makes sense. It doesn’t feel like it’s got an over-abundance or VTOL/hover control @Chancey21
And maybe more details, I’d like to get it to at least 250 parts @Hyattorama
Well that solves that problem! Haha. It looks and flies great man, I’m sorry I don’t have any helpful criticisms. I’m assuming you’re not done with the livery? The only other thing it’s lacking in my opinion is a cockpit, but it doesn’t look like that’s really possible on this build... @Chancey21
It can be operated in both V/STOL modes although it is most effective at a 1 ft STOL kind of ish @Hyattorama
AG1 for wings and ag2 for extra gyro AG8 for control surfaces @Hyattorama
Nice man, I really like it. Handsome plane. I think the wing structure is especially cool. Would you consider this to be VTOL or STOL? I was having a little trouble transitioning from VTOL mode to forward flight... is there a step I’m missing or something?
Other than that I think it’s great. I’m not sure if I have any constructive criticisms haha...
The only thing i see that could use attention is the transition. Although it’s possible I’m missing something.
@Hyattorama
How’s it coming along?
