So i built this recently after messing with Spiritus Raptors one, and i thought it would be fun to make one with a piston now that theyre out! The controls are quite simple, and easy to use. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND SPOOLING THE ENGINES (at least on this plane) for a smoother takeoff. spooling for about 10-20 seconds will make it a very nice takeoff. Activation group 1 for the launch and detach. Use the Keyboard button for VTOL slide if youre on PC and mobile be very gentle with it. After you press AG 1 Wait about half a second then hold down the VTOL slide button. If you all would like for me to make this a subassembly for you just tell me in the comments and i will for all you ship builders :) ENJOY

Ok@DankMeme
@PINK Yes!
Can we mobiles have just the Saab?@DankMeme
@Agentj2012 The back parts are a piston, and some 0.25 blocks that are separated from the plane by a little so it doesnt slam into it and explode. when you lanch it the moving part hits the back hook of the plane and pushes it to make it go fast very quickly (launching it)
Seems advanced....are the parts in the back (the hook) from the beta or am I just dumb
@DankMeme Thanks mate! Much love <3
@BaconAircrafts No problem, I will get right on it! :)
Hey very cool! Im currently building a futuristic airliner that only uses a few props for fuel efficiency, however, it needs to takeoff at ~180 to 200mph, mind making a sling long enough and big enough to handle this but with props (~10k more pounds)? I will FOR SURE credit you, as always when another player makes parts that i used.
