Auto Credit Based on Jundroo's P-51 Mustang
This aircraft uses 2 propellers which work by using inverted airbrakes to make them spin as if they were powered. Oddly enough this can be used to yeet the Tu-95's speed record, because if you fly to 20,000 feet and start descending you can reach up to 2000 mph before the engines go into self-detonation mode. Air launch only, I am trying to find out a way to make it useable for landplanes. VTOL controls prop pitch and Throttle does the usual. Expect it to be a little jumpy, I don't know how to fix it without putting a gyro

@striker0911 Well yes, but the only issue is that it needs to spawned in the air. I will tag you for the ground compatible version's release.
Is it good for challenge "Doing the distance"?
@NexusGaming ok
@ALRX I may try putting VTOL nozzles on deattachers to provide a functional ground start system
@NexusGaming oh lol, im not in beta yet. :)
@ALRX yes it does, it works for me, and it actually goes really fast (Simpleplanes 1.10.103 Beta, using SM-550TB, Android 7.0 Nougat, not that you needed any OS or device info) You have to put VTOL fully upwards for forward power, putting it fully downards does the opposite, as one would expect.
@NexusGaming noice
wait does this actually create any power?
@ALRX I was messing around with XML modded airbrakes when I came up with this
@WrongFlyer that was quick
Interesting.
