This is a tiltrotor aircraft designed to carry troops and land them into locations quickly. The version you see here is fully configured for ground attack as a gunship of sorts with door gunners and isn't meant to transport troops. I took the previous version of this and decided to do a few modifications to it that I think warranted making another public post.
Controls:
Ag1-Gyro (Needed VTOL and transitioning to other modes of flight)
Ag2-Air Brake
Ag3-Activate Door Gunners
Ag4-Activate forward facing weapons
Ag8-Activate VTOL rotators (On by default)
Trim-Trim
VTOL-Control Angle of the Propellers
Control Stick (Trigger=Fire guns, Button 1=Launch Weapons, Button 2=Launch Countermeasures)
Builder's Note: I can't build helicopters in this game, so I thought that building a tiltrotor aircraft would be easier, and in some ways, it was. Having said that, there are still some issues with it that I couldn't solve, like how the aircraft tends to roll to the right, or how it's hard to control in VTOL mode to land precisely. Having said that, I hope you all enjoy this build.

I'm not aware of that design, but I guess I'll take it as a compliment.
Almost looks like the weird modification that VALVe did to the V-22 Osprey for Half-Life 1
