I am trying to make a vtol sphere and I am using this box as the basis that holds the landing gear on. I would like some help with making the thing actually work instead of uncontrollably spinning. 1 Is VTOL gyro and 2 is main engines.

    Also it might be ideal to rotate the landing gear downward and set the rotator inputs to (1*LandingGear) so that they start down

    And if you find the ‘ground effect’ too jittery, try this instead!

    How’s this? VTOL for VTOL and Throttle for forward speed, also added brake and some ground effect that gives you extra lift close to the ground; I assumed this will just be the inside to what you’re making so I removed a few things, it will help to make sure everything you add from here on in is 0 mass, hope this helps!
