Auto Credit Based on mikoyanster's 50s Cold War Challenge [CANCELLED]

*Note; Not for the Coldwar Challenge!*
This tilt rotor aircraft was designed by my grandad. I have reconstructed the aircraft in Simple Planes for your enjoyment! It is pretty easy to fly and quite nice to look at. Here is how to fly the aircraft properly; VTOL up for rotor tilt. 50-60% power @90* for vertical takeoff. 100% power @45-50* for cruise... Enjoy!
