DAAs first ever spacecraft, this is the new STX-78 Space Fighter and it flys the same as its looks which means its very stable even at low speeds. The space craft has special S.U.S foils which open for more agility and operation of the lasers.

Landing is tricky because of the tiny landing gear.

VTOL down for the S.U.S Foils to open.
VTOL up gently for the S.U.S Foils to lock closed.

    Looks similar to an X-Wing from Star Wars

    Oops, my mistake. I think maybe the lack of yaw on the vertical stabilizers threw me off a bit too. Really nice craft. @DAAviation2015

    It is on but it can't turn that well at high take off speeds @Acer500

    Great work! Was easy enough to land IMO. If I may make one teeny tiny suggestion: enable turning on the front wheel for taxi
