Auto Credit Based on Flieger627's Viking StarCraft2 (Leg only)
A transformable version of Viking
Instructions
- Press LandingGear to transform. The VTOL engine can guarantee a smooth landing so you only need to use it to control horizontal speed.
Important: Start walking until it's standing firmly on the ground.
When walking, use throttle to forward, VTOL to twist the waist, Trim to adjust the guns. and Yaw to turn.
When pressing AG1 (after deactivating LandingGear), it will become just a normal plane. (PS: the control for this mode is not very good and it's not very flexible)
Hover mode: when AG1 is not on, it can hover in the sky using gyroscope.
How to land: after reducing speed, activate AG1 to eliminate the horizontal speed using VTOL. then deactivate AG1 for fast dropping. Repeat this step and finally press LandingGear.
Enjoy!
PS: The transform mechanism (parts connected with too many pistons, springs and rotators) has very poor aerodynamic performance in SP, so it's very difficult to maintain both the transforming and flight control.
