Hello Simpleplanes community! How are you guys today? I'm back again with my newest creation, the G-46 Grasshopper. This aircraft was built for Atomicfox's Water and Air challenge. Anyways, on to the build. This aircraft can take off from land, water, anywhere (Including the air, if you somehow can). It has a max speed of 300ish mph. With its long wings, it can glide from the top of the volcano and land at Yegar Airport (Basically, its a powered glider). It also has built in safety features, like a gyroscope to prevent flipping while landing and a parachute. The front of the aircraft has a bow shaped nose to push the aircraft nose up in a steep landing. This aircraft is for all people. If you are a speed demon and need something to satify your cravings. Fly with 100% throttle and zoom through the sky. What if you just a mellow guy and just want to admire everything from above. Well this plane is for you. Fly at 50% throttle and just enjoy the scenery. You can also glide with the G-46.

Taking Off

When taking off from water, use the vtol slider to raise the stabilizers when you hit 50 mph. If you don't, the powerful engines will push the nose into the water. In other words, you will flip.
When taking off from land, just raise the stabilizers and increase the throttle.

Landing

When landing in water, lower the stabilizers (VTOL) and decrease the throttle to 0%. Don't worry, you should have control of the plane until 60ish mph. Descend and land in the water at 105 mph or lower. Use the air brake to slow yourself down.
When landing on land, land like a regular aircraft.

Emergency

When in an emergency, like engine failure, uses action one to release the parachute. If that fails, please call customer services so we can replace the parachute.
If you flip while landing, use action 3 to turn on the gyroscope.

Creator stuff
I purposely made this plane tail heavy to help with water take off. Fortunately, we have the trim tab to make the aircraft fly straight. At 100% throttle, slide the trim slider 1/4 the way up. When flying at 50% throttle, slide the trim slider 1/8 the way up.

Action

Action 1: Parachute
Action 2: Gyroscope
VTOL: Stabilizers
Trim: Trim

I hope you guys enjoy this creation as much as I loved building it. Hope you guys have a great day or night.
