Prototype VTOL

7,051 Rawhide  3.7 years ago

This is a proof of concept vehicle I made to test how propellers inside of wings would work of a plane, and how it would affect lift.

Controls

Use VTOL to lift aircraft up, around halfway up the slider is a stable hover

Use AG1 to go into landing or takeoff mode, this helps the aircraft stay stable

All other aircraft controls are the same
