13.7k OrionAstronaut  8.0 years ago

The Lynx is a space tourism space plane designed by X-COR, a private space tourism company, that is designed to take a lucky or very wealthy individual to a sub-orbital trajectory, giving them an amazing view of the Earth from space. The Lynx is also powered by 4 rocket motors and takes off and lands horizontally on a landing strip. You will get the chance to pilot the Lynx through this replica, which features two seats, a cockpit, and a working Joystick ( the one on the passengers side doesn't work). To taxi it to the runway ( or just mess around), press 7 and move the vtol slide up to go forward and back to go backwards. When finished with your taxing, press one to decouple the spacecraft. AFTER THAT, PUT THE VTOL SLIDER SLIGHTLY UP FROM THE MIDDLE POINT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO DIE A FIERY DEATH!!!!!!!!!!! W ell then, you must then throttle up and pull up to around 60 degrees until you start slowing down. at this point, cut the engines and enjoy the view. ROLL IS EXTREMELY SENSITIVE. THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE.
