Creator Comments

  • I came up with this idea after seeing Aer0User's equally cursed E-3 LLV, so shout out to him
  • I went a bit overboard with this one, so Part count and Performance Cost are a bit high for a mobile friendly craft. I really wanted this thing to be fun to play around with so it might be a bit rough on slower phones
  • I'm sorry for this monstrosity (no i'm not >:-) )
