Futuristic plane contest entry. This plane can only take off and land in water. For best take off: push vtol bar all the way forwars and slowly throttle. Slowly pull back on pitch when you reach about 135 mph. Landing is a bit tricky. To activate air brakes, keep vtol forward and press 1. To rotate the vertical stabilizers, press 2 with vtol forward. Plane flies best with vtol forward. DO NOT PUT VTOL BELOW THE MIDDLE.

    It's fine, I'd love to see what you can do with this plane. If you are able to make it more stable and you re-upload it, tag me in it and I'll see what I can rate it! :) @Bevm
