Although it looks amazing, it doesn’t fly the same. It’s nearly uncontrollable.
I think this kinda looks like the volatus from GTA Online. Looks awesome!!!
probably the most stylish chopper I've seen so far
@Liquidfox Thanks!
mouth drops through floor to china welp. Mine probably lost to this.
A nice craft!
