You need to read instructions but simply the control is throttle and rudder (roll to control)
For more controls: (no others than rudder and throttle)
- Rudder neutral angle: VTOL (-2deg to 2deg)
- Automatic stabilization mode (experimental): AG1
This one flies like a motorglider!
- This airplane was once an experimental airplane that I almost deleted it but I realized it's interesting to post it for you all to try!
The idea was inspired by the "old timer" R/C airplane, which is basically a free flight model airplane but have rudder control.
