This is a v2 of my eternal wind glider. I wanted a way to get really high and glide, and also a way to take off and then glide later, so I added an rocket-pod take-off assister. It works perfectly to get the glider anywhere I want it! Just drop them with ag2 and 3, and you're set to glide away! Act1 to start rockets. Enjoy and please upvote! Also, many thanks and full credit to boxcarpuppy for the rocket pods that power the takeoff car, they are really awesome!
