Well here you have it. Finally a working, flying b-wing complete with heavy blaster cannons, ion cannons, and an auto turret. It doesn't have very good flight characteristics or maneuverability but it's not terrible for something that wasn't supposed to fly in atmosphere in the first place.
Flight instructions:
Throttle up to around 62% to hover. This actually hovers pretty well with some responsive controls.
For flight:
Throttle to 100% once leaning backwards, push vtol bar all the way up. You may need to help keep the ship straight with yaw during slow speeds.
AG1: activates blaster cannons
AG2: activates ion cannons
AG3: activates auto turret
Thanks and be sure to check out my other Star Wars builds if you like this one.

Hard to control but cool
@Mercyaircraftcorporation it needs a gyro or two but when I built this, the gyro wasn't a part yet.
Great plane, I am a Star Wars fan and this is my favorite ship. It’s a bit hard to control and when I do a barrel roll, it always blows up. Mabye fix that. But great plane. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
it just exploded randomly and game crashed... found my new game killer YAY
@icolubrids I will get it flying. Don't you worry!!
if anyone would look at mine and aimprove its flying i would be extremely grateful. Sorry Rugpeersdude for filling your inbox with selfish comments though, your ship is realy cool and impressive
this is realy cool, but i feel kinda gutted because i made a B-Wing last month and hoped it would be the first flying one on SP... however it cannot fly very well :( any help would be greatly appreciated
@TimeTraveler lol. I haven't played KSP but yea I'm sure their physics are way different. Lol.
Looks great and works! I did it in ksp and tried to apply the same physics to sp and I guess they have way different physics engines
@BobTheTitanSP lol. Indeed it was. Thanks!!!
Getting it to fly must've been hard to pull off lol. It looks great aesthetically though!
@Rugpeersdude lol, seems legit
@picy and lots and lots of testing.
@picy combination of unicorns and fairy dust. Lol.
dude i have tried to make a working b-wing for ages!
how is this possible!?!?
@Rugpeersdude cool
@marcox43 ok I could make that. I'll tag you in it when I'm done. I have a project I'm working on before that but I'll do the Phantom next.
@Rugpeersdude I misspelled it, Spectre is the crew xdd, the ship is the Phantom
@BaconAircraft ok sounds good
@Rugpeersdude Okay. It's most likely integrated wrong. Ill tag you on an unlisted fix once i have time to work on it. :)
@BaconAircraft I actually tried it already and I didn't notice much of a difference. Maybe I integrated it wrong? If you want to try it out, let me know how it goes!!
Hey, I'm able to integrate the pod in if you want. All I need to do is nudge the fuselage located at the COM up by a few nudges, place gyro and nudge it back down since I'm on PC. :)@Rugpeersdude
@marcox43 I don't see anything called the spectre. Can you send me a link to it?
can you make the Spectre from Star wars Rebels?
