A very recent upload by @ChunderDownUndeR, now fitted and ready for combat. Bit of a backstory behind this idea I had: this aircraft, normally a cargolifter, modified in times of combat. It's purpose is to serve not as a fast nor heavy bomber but as a sturdy and stable craft. It is also now able to take off (and land, hopefully) from water, although you should take off quickly otherwise it will fall over. I also fixed the slight pitching up I noticed.
Now onto controls.
- Activator 1: Bomb bay doors (VTOL up to open)
- Activator 2: Activate top turret
- Activator 3: Activate bottom turret (VTOL up or down to move 180 degrees)
- Activator 8: Rotor control, deactivate to lock.
All credit of course goes to the original builder, I just saw this, and had a stroke of inspiration. Be sure to upvote theirs as well, as it really is a great aircraft.
