ESJ 018 "Black Dart"

2,864 Esjope  3.9 years ago

This is a experimental VTOL plane made by the advance development branch of the ESJ company as a technology demonstrator for the governments that are interested on our planes.

That thing was very difficult to make work and is very difficult to fly but looks amazing (for me) and that's what counts

Take off institutions:

  • put throttle 100%
  • when it's a little high retract the landing gear this will made you advance a little bit
  • when you have like 350 to 400 km/h IAS down gently the VTOL to his minimum
  • finally trim half down

if you are brave enough try to land it
