"Transfer drive"
A new form of propulsion. This craft propels itself into the sky using car engines. Thanks to the torque that is generated once the wheels are touched.
Be careful though, it tends to be very shaky.
Instructions for takeoff:
Throttle up.
VTOL up to just below max
Trim up half to set the propeller pitch (You can mess around with this to see what gives you the most thrust)
Advantages: This engine can handle a lot of stress. It's fuel efficient, reliable and gives little torque. Also it doesn't need much power(tested with one 50 hp engine and it flew), can drive super large propellers.
Disadvantage: Makes a loud sound that can be heard in the entire map...

@Visify It wil be called "T-Drive" though, so no worries.
Oh god you MUST think about this on planes using fuselage blocks.
@Visify do you mind if I, say, use this concept and build a entire different plane? I think it was....left out and so.........yeah.
I hate to see stuff wasted and "hanging around". Same goes with bikes-my bicycle comes from a scrap yard, with new parts. Frame? GT, Avalanche 1.0
Oooooo............
Hey this is a new method of propulsion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will DEFINITELY TRY IT OUT.
@FlyingThings I was too :P
Im suprised that it works.
@Visify no problem!
@Visify ok it's better if you don't hear "squeeeaaaalll" day
@MrSilverWolf Thanks :)
Awesome!
@JMicah4 I can build a silent version, it will have lots of torque though
@Delphinus :D
@Visify it's all the time though, perhaps the sound could be redone.
@JMicah4 Same lol
@Visify I hate it when my cars create that noise when they drive.
@JMicah4 Yup
is it the tire squeal noise?
@JMicah4 It's the most annoying sound in the game ;)). And thanks for the upvote
makes a loud sound that can be heard through the entire map... I'll have to try this
@AudioDud3 Thanks dude
