rotaters go 120 degrees, so you can use it to reverse thrust if needed. If you took off vertically (vtol up), you need to get a decent amount of forward airspeed before you can bring the props down. Igniting the two body engines will help with action group 5

1,711 srduval@ahappyape Thanks for the rating, I've speculated that the drag is to high for it to really kick into gear. I might try another version where the props rotate in for high speed flight... If I can figure out how to coordinate the rotators with the vtol nozzles9.6 years ago

11.3k ahappyapeGood! I see you kept the detachable wings :-) its a shame your rockets don't add much mph - probs air resistance too high? Anyways great idea.9.6 years ago

1,711 srduval@ahappyape I will check it out tonight/tomorrow9.6 years ago

11.3k ahappyape@srduval I downloaded just now. Will have a proper fly in the morning if that's OK - give me time to go through it properly. I not long ago released a plane "valfor" - not many people seemed to take a look. Would love your feedback on it.9.6 years ago

1,711 srduval@ahappyape give this clunker a try. Maneuverability isn't the best but once it gets going with some forward air speed it doesn't do to bad9.6 years ago

1,711 srduval@LordofLego Thanks! I try and provide instructions when it isn't obvious how to fly this. I uploaded this with the instructions missing with the intent to go back and update once I had confirmed/tested some controls, but got side tracked9.6 years ago

1,711 srduval@LordofLego, I updated to provide some more instructions on how to fly. It is a little quirky to fly, but it will fly. I've had trouble doing the landing portion, on my phone. PC might be a little easier to control a landing9.6 years ago
