Well... I have no idea how to explain this all. It's a steampunk airship, a remastered version of an old airship made by a member of my fraction. Steering is standard helicopter - pitch for tilting forwards/backwards, roll for turning, VTOL for gas heating (lift), throttle for propellers. AG3+Trim - crane rotating. AG8 - lock/unlock gas temperature. AG2+VTOL - engines tilting. Sincerely, Heartbreak.

@ShockRF
@lliamlegoguy thanks, the column was really interesting. But I didn't mess about physics of this craft
Most airships actually bring in oxygen to land, and push it out when they take off (link)
@Jetliner101 well, it IS a ship, but it's not a rocket but a balloon
@Kerbango thank you) I am trying to reduce part count, and, well, i can do it as You see)
Noice! you must have gone though every part because you knocked off 200+ parts and still made it look more detailed. Kudos!
