I got my piston engine working! Its still rather finicky but i managed a flight from wright airport to wright isles airport and from wright to USS Beast, so ive deemed it a success. Its still very finicky, but i figured id upload it for yall to fool with. To use: throttle up to 90% at a moderate speed (just a little slower than fast); if it backs just restart, its easier; be gentle on the stick, both it and the engines like to stall; prop pitch is on VTOL; use VTOL to control your speed because the engines might stall if you throttle down to much. Need long runway, takes off by falling off the cliff at wright airport (it is capable of catapult launch, just ignore the fire). Be careful pulling the brakes on Landing...
