Auto Credit Based on Engini's Tech Challenge!
Entry #2 for the Challenge. This version can take off and land from a carrier, water or land. Action group 2 and slight vtol up will help you water launch. If you have the right speed and angles you can dive below the surface and pop back up and fly away

459 EnginiThat it would! @srduval - you'll see when I post mine it's a rather different beast!9.5 years ago

1,711 srduval@Engini Thanks. As a side project I will see if I can get a better landing performance. Would be cool if they added an arresting cable to the carrier9.5 years ago

459 EnginiMeets all the challenge requirements - although landing on tiny is a bit tricky! Best so far none the less9.5 years ago

459 EnginiWell, I got it on - more of a controlled crash down the side but it was undamaged! :)9.5 years ago

459 EnginiLike the wing pivot , gets a bit washy and I'm always going off the end (unless I crash into the tower) :/ - what speed you flying at at the slowest manoverable with how much on the VTOL?9.5 years ago
-
1,711 srduval@Engini yes uss tiny. I managed to do it once. I have a hard time getting lined up with the carrier for a final approach. For landing, you can throttle way down and use the vtol to pivot the wings to compensate for the lift9.5 years ago

459 EnginiHi, when you say carrier - did you mean the small one? USS Tiny? (This is the one in the challenge) - I've struggled to land this on there, can you upload a video :)9.5 years ago
