Vertical Vinny

315 combatwombat363  2.0 years ago

Behold the future!!! This is a “tailsitter” aircraft, i plan on improving it in the looks department but hey, it works. To fly all you gotta do is put the petal toa the metal till it lifts off, then you gotta get to a good altitude (around 1500 ft or so) then deactivate ag 8, please note it will fall backwards (im trying to fix that) all you have to do is follow through with the tilt( dont fight it) and you’ll be fine. To land simply hit ag8 and throttle in between 45 and 20 percent, if dropping fast throttle to around 80% then when you touch down throttle to 0. The plane has normal controls and is relatively stable in forward flight. If you have any tips or improvements I’ll be happy to hear them. I hope you enjoy!!!
Your gonna wanna invert the lower vertical stabilizer, sorry about that!!
