Auto Credit Based on darker4000's Dash 8 Q400 (Big turboprop)

I took this nice looking plane and basically made it work. Before it flew but it relied on jets and vtol nozzles and wasnt as well balanced as it is now. I added full prop power and added more fuel and made it perfectly balanced. I also made working gears (use 1 to activate them vtol slider controls them) You use vtol slider and 6 to control prop tilt. Please help a guy out and rate and check out my other contraptions.

    @JacobSemmler You have to land like a real airplane real gentle you cant hit it hard on the ground of the wheels will break off or the rotators will go into free spin and make it retract

    @JacobSemmler do they break on takeoff? if so you are not pulling up fast enough

    However I can't seem to land because the gear breaks off and can't fix it

    This plane is revolutionary in this game. I mean other people have probably done it before but this is probably the best. Excellent plane.

    @planelover400 Thanks so much mate I worked really hard on this one. Also to anyone that loves the movie Flight of the Phoenix I made the C-119 Boxcar in it even though it needs some aesthetic work

    Jquinn88 this plane is as good as it gets. Basically why they made this plane in the real world because they wanted it to be a thin body regional turbo prop airliner to fly short to medium flights. This plane is exellent the way it is!.

    @Thebrendon55c Functionality is good, Just doesn't have quite the look of the Q400, I think it needs a wider fuselage.

    @WeeBabySeamus thanks so much mate I really worked hard to get it to balance perfectly. The problem with props is that you can change just a single blocks worth of weight and the thing will not fly at all.
