Arion Cruiser MKIII

195 Geryz  4.1 years ago
Auto Credit Based on Geryz's V-11 ''Hawk''

(Arion is a brand name I made up, my newer airplanes will also be called that) The Cruiser was made solely for, well, cruising. It's not very maneuvrable, easy to take off/land, or fast. But it does have a lot of fuel and very efficient engines. Great if you want to travel between islands, or just enjoy the view. Controls: Group 1 to activate Gyroscope, hold pitch up while gyroscope is active for cruising (I reccomend to do this only at a threshhold of about 470 km/h or 292 mp/h) The horizontal stabilizers will pitch up, while the gyroscope counteracts this movement just enough to create a flight that faces slightly upwards. This is why pitch is inverted below the threshhold because the gyroscope is stronger than the aerofoils below that speed.
