Strange little sea plane, has a nose down problem, but is easily compensated with taps of the pitch. Use VTOL full up to take off. This is also an excellent carrier lander, line up with the carriers and reduce throttle to 12-15% use vtol up to compensate for lost lift. You want the approach to be slightly above the carrier deck. As you get closer, reduce throttle further then cut it to drop onto the deck
