SP.39 Albatros

Auto Credit Based on JustAMiko's Improved

A trainer jet. I hope you like this. Credit to Cronvia32 for doing the custom landing gear, the cockpit and some visual changes.
VTOL for Flaps.
There are some problems with ground steering, but I don't know how to add yaw steering to retractable custom gear. If you want to help me with this, thanks!

    @Cronvia32 Ok I will try this! And thanks for the thing with the flaps, I probably have forgotten to invert them again after I mirrored the plane

    Also its actually not bad beside from the fact that one of the flaps needs to be inverted

    The steering is possible the wheels are just car wheels just resized to measure the turning radius just click the gear button then use "Turning Radius" And select the max angle you want

    but this seems pretty complicated

    I just found this "smooth(clamp ((Pitch - (Roll/2) + (clamp (VTOL/2, -1, 0))), -1.1, 1.1), 4)/clamp (IAS/150, 1, 3)" in the input for tailerons in a downloaded jet.

    @Numbers The gear uses an hinge rotator with the input LandingGear. I have no idea how to create a second input in XML

    I tried but then the gear does not retract anymore

    @Numbers The front gear just has no Yaw input and I don't know how to create one

    @Numbers I know. The problem is that this gear is all custom and operated by an hinge rotator. So the normal Yaw steering doesn't work
