Phoztek P-13 "Starhopper"

6,375 Phoza  6.3 years ago

This is the first in my Phoztek series. This jet is a light, short-range fighter-bomber designed for low-cost agility. Featuring 5-degree pitch and trim engine vectoring, the Starhopper lives up to its purpose.

IMPORTANT TAKE-OFF TIPS:
Do not use trim or pitch during takeoff. It will lift off the ground by itself. Once airborne, pull the trim ALL THE WAY DOWN. This is crucial for safe flying.
