VTOL down lowers the flaps, I have tried to copy the real pivot point so they lower and move backwards, gear raises and lowers the landing gear as per the real amphibian, trim is for the elevator. flies really nice, if slowly. Enjoy

@RamboJutter no problem
@EternalDarkness ah ok, I only knew of the two main schemes. I want to tweak bits anyway so may do a re-colour, thanks
CL-415 is too popular to be made in just two schemes. I've found yellow and black ones on Google, as well as gray (like military aircraft), and orange and green. Even an entirely red one with some details.
@EternalDarkness I based it on the Malaysian maritime aircraft which was white and red, the only other option was yellow and red which was the standard scheme.
I don’t know how In the bejesus you can make a ‘phib handle so smoothly - my attempt flew like a pig! Looks the business as a matter of course, but of course!
@RamboJutter Found angles that show best views of the plane. All the details, size, ... Although, it could use more details to showcase, and black and yellow compliment this plane far better than red and white.
@EternalDarkness thanks, what should I have done for screenshots?
@EternalDarkness Seems Legit
Great job. However, you could have done better with screen shots. They aren't clickbaity enough.
