This is Protoflights third 500 part build, a F-35! The F-35 is a stealth multirole combat aircraft. Like the real one, this craft comes with a swivel nozzle, which redirects the thrust to enable vertical takeoff and landing.
I tried to keep it as simple as possible this time, so there are three modes, which you select in the activation groups.
Ag1 - Vertical takeoff: use this to takeoff vertically, and to land vertically
Ag2 - Flight Power: this mode is for level flight
Ag3 - Rolling start: the angled nozzle lets the craft takeoff while rolling
To transition from hovering to stable flight, I find it best to go go from Ag1 to the rolling start mode, to build up speed and then into flight power.
This one took some time to make, so enjoy!
New
- Full self-stabilization of the craft while in Ag1 hover flight
- Optical improvements
