This is the Vertical Assisted Takeoff Recreational Propeller-powered Aircraft. It has a top speed of around 600 mph. It is not a performance plane in terms of maneuverability and agility, however the roll rate on this aircraft is pretty fast. For pitch controls DO NOT give a massive amount of input, for whatever reason despite the past week of troubleshooting it if you do give to much pitch input it rolls and goes into a recoverable but unwanted spiral. VTOL controls for the wings and press 1 to activate forward facing engines. For takeoff angle the wings forward keeping the wheels under the wing engines touching the ground. I have found it is better to use the main wing for pitching if you roll the top of the cockpit to whatever direction you wish to go. The wheels attached on the planes wings are so that you may land .
