After years of work, innovation, and design we finally have it!

The XGA - 20 Mark 14 - 1

This marvelous piece of technology had many intentions put into the design.
This includes the idea of:

  1. Primarily being that it be a multi-role space-plane (If you may even call it that.)

  2. Planetary anti-matter bombardment, although that is the old way here at Space Time Administrative Military Police (S.T.A.M.P, as seen on the side of the wing.) Meaning this is a old era S.T.A.M.P space-plane, but widely used in service!

  3. Close ground air-support, you can this of it as a sci-fi A10 Thunderbolt, as it is pretty fairly resilient to damage, it is weaponized to take out ground forces, it can do the job quick and easy, and it really is not meant for dog-fighting!

This sounds all good right? But how do I even fly this thing?

[I actually wish to clarify as the engineer of this project, I am not that into simpleplanes anymore, and I have not been spending dedicated time making any new builds or this.

You the downloader are free to strip or build off of this design, hopefully making something better or this even better..]

Controls:

1/7: Gyroscopes.
2: Warp drive.
3: Additional engine vectoring. (VTOL bar.)
4. Parachutes.
5. Eject.
6. Thrust vectoring and air control.
8. RCS.

Trim: Deploys weapon bays.

Tips:

When flying this thing, before you take off I recommend you activate, 3/6 so you can actually fly, and maybe deactivate RCS unless preferable.

When taking off, and just to note, if you are not careful you can easily lose control of the build causing it to spin out or whatever; this can apply to doing hard maneuvers and taking off, but if you are able to stabilize it quickly, that is good.

Meaning take off with a low throttle until you have stable flight.

Also, this build can freak out at high speeds, but this is differentiable at different atmospheric heights.

I prefer to fly with 10-30 Throttle percentage at 1k through 15k feet. (To sea-level.)
At higher atmospheric heights such as 30k through 50k feet you can fly at a faster throttle percentage.

And just to note, when taking off you only need a small amount of throttle percentage.

Hopefully, this will all benefit you when flying this aircraft.
Stay safe and have fun!
