aircraft designation 5
This is my first aircraft with a custom cockpit!
6 activates forward flight engines
7 toggles VTOL
8 turns on lights
VTOL slider up for forward flight, center for vertical flight, and down for reverse.
Vertical takeoff:
Activate 7, throttle 50%-55%, once the aircraft is a couple hundred feet off the ground activate 6, keep the aircraft level until speed is over 200, then deactivate 7 and push throttle to 100%.
Vertical landing:
Deactivate 6, activate 7, throttle about 40%, use VTOL slider to slow the aircraft (if you push the VTOL slider too far in any direction the aircraft will start going in a tight, uncontrolled flip.), keep the aircraft level, touch down and throttle to 0%, deactivate 7 and activate 6 to taxi.
( You may be unable to achieve a perfect vertical landing due to the aircraft’s tendency to flip as discussed before. )
Throttle should be about 45%-55% for hover
Also, thanks to Thorne, Shortnessmcgee, and DastardlyD for helping me with this problematic plane.
