***** ALIEN FRANCHISE TEAM BUILD ******* I teamed up with usernames WeeBabySeamus & Wakescar to build 3 different machines from the movie Alien. This is the first in a three day release of our creations. Stay tuned for Wakescar to release Ripley's mech walker --> released Friday the 27th!!! And be sure to be on the look out Saturday for the grand finale --> WeeBabySeamus will post his APC!!!!!!! ***** INSTRUCTIONS FOR DROPSHIP *****. - Activate 1 for tail engines before throttling up, then take off like normal VTOL. Tail engines are on an activation group so that you can shut them down for landing.. This thing is very landable, I tried to make it handle like I thought a dropship would. - IMPORTANT --> once in the air she likes to nose dive slightly due to where the weight of the ship is distributed. To achieve level flight adjust VTOL control half a noch down from top. ******** IF YOU GET INTO AIR AND SHE WON'T STOP ROLLING ONE DIRECTION OR THE OTHER JUST RESTART UNTIL SHE FLIES LEVEL ********* she is a solid flight just acts weird sometimes.... >>> THANKS FOR LOOKING >>> PLEASE RATE AND ENJOY <<< SUGGESTIONS WELCOMED >>>. ******* DONT FORGET THE EPICNESS CONTINUES FRIDAY 27th & SATURDAY 28th ********

    @WeeBabySeamus haha I really appreciate that man!!!! I'm always so torn about paint.. I know a lot of people on here prefer a true replica with true colors.. But I always end up changing it up a bit.. I like the shapes to pop a lil better so I like to mix up the flat and gloss quite a bit.. Can't wait for the APC!!!!

    I love how this thing flies, the vtol is like a space ship, you have to be on both VTOL and joystick to land this thing. really good job, and Im not bromancing you :) Also your paint jobs are wicked good, i tend to stick to the flat military look, but you go all creative with it. Like the tie fighter, so mean, the paint really sets it off.
