    Well you need two different control sets for the back and front propellers to do stuff like, landing, flying straight, turning, DOING A BARREL ROLL! And You need to use air brakes even when your throttle is on when you land. And pitch control was empty so I used that for air breaks. And even if it's complicated I have a much better fighter plane that will most likely be not complicated at all (If it is then you're crazy) and the plane had a very fast turn time and a very fast takeoff.

    Yep, unnecessary complexity.

    @MrVaultech Wot? How the controls are complicated? Or was I supposed to say "That slide bar thingy that you have on each side of your screen if you're a mobile user"?
