Just felt like building a plane that used a more exposed mechanical control system. AG1 for turret, VTOL for L-R, Trim for up/down. AG2 for trimming aircraft (VTOL). Take-off speed is around 68/69 mph. On landing, I advise everyone to let it land its self, any pitch correction causes the plane to go into an uncontrollable stall. I don't recommend making quick pitch corrections in flight either, it's tail-heavy and loves high speed stalls.
