The Aerocycle is a VR capable ornithropter that seats two. Capable of regular and flight operations, it boasts a high top speed of 250 mph, easy handling, and low vibration! Takeoff and landing runs are very short, and easy! Instructions are in the new instruction feature.

@CallsignArtemis It’s ok. I have it on quest, which is low physics, and even then it’s fine.
@BeastHunter Quick question as I can not yet access a VR console, is the current amount of vibration ok, or is even further balancing required for the future crafts?
Absolutly funny! I like it
This is really fun in VR!

Note: if the wings begin to flutter (wingtips vibrating), reduce throttle and perform a loop-de-loop to stop it before the aircraft tears itself apart. This usually happens in dives in excess of 300 mph.
