It's too easy to build a VTOL capable aircraft now. All I did was take an old float cargo design I had and installed a Blasto VTOL , nozzles, and a gyro . NO RCN THRUSTERS! Fly's pretty good , but it kind of takes the fun out of building something that hovers steadily doesn't it? Press 8 to turn it off and see what happens :)
