This is my first VR friendly build. Please let me know if there are any issues or any suggestions.

Description:

Gauges are self explanatory, there's Altitude, Airspeed, Vertical Speed, Compass, VTOL Angle, Artificial Horizon and Angle of Attack, Fuel Capacity, and Throttle Percentage

There's a VTOL Lever on the left hand side which, obviously, controls the nozzles and when sent full forward, an additional pair of jets add more forward thrust.

The switch and the button are labeled for their respective functions, as well as the throttle Lever.

Backstory:

Project Hover was started as an experimental aircraft for research purposes. Started covertly as a new means for making a series of VTOL military craft for quick entry into hot zones supporting infantry whether it being transport, air superiority, or CAS. Tempestad's first new installment is the A-23 Leaper, fated to succeed the aging Nightingale jump jet. Armed with a pair of 50 mm cannons, a Gatlin autocannon and a pair of missile pods, it's a VTOL jump jet meant for close air support (CAS) to personnel and convoys on dangerous operations.
