Spectre Drone

Spectre Drone is a gyro-stabilized version of my Spectre aerial rocket turret. The craft is best suited for ambush attacks agains soft targets. The suspension of the landing gear is capable of withstanding somewhat rough landings. Control with pitch/roll and throttle. The craft hovers at around 53 % (fully loaded). Cruise speed 150 mph at sea level.

I suggest you take a moment to get familiar with the handling close to ground. And yes, I bet you'd love to have a variometer in the instrument panel...

Operating instructions:

1) AG1 to enable flight controls. Use roll and pitch and throttle to maneuver.
2) TRIM UP to raise landing gear.
3) AG2 to enable the turret. Use cockpit view and roll/pitch to aim. Be sure to disable AG1 while aiming!

    I'll keep a good eye on this drone but currently I'm too busy for acquiring any new aircraft at the moment. Maybe in the future I may make an acquisition of the Spectre Drone for my navy and air force.

    Also here is my fictional nation: nationstates.net/nation=pavelania

    Thanks for the compliments @JohnnyBoythePilot! Ambushing the convoy is exactly what the drone is good for. You can also sneak close to a USS Beast fleet to take down the cruisers but you need to be quick or they'll shoot back. Feel free to use the Spectre for your Air Force or Navy if you like, please give credit where applicable. :)

    Freaking genius! This is a fantastic drone! This drone is perfect for short-range recon or a light ambush on a base. This is literally a flying artillery truck! My Air Force or Navy would kill to have a drone like this! Nice job! 👍
