This has been a bit of a project of mine, this is the 7th version of this plane though it's the second to be released.
This has a fully usable cockpit, every switch does something and is tied to the flying of the craft.
A bit of a warning, this craft is extremely hard to fly and can only reach LDO, the reason for this is that the use of tinker panel was only used for cosmetic reasons.
There's a very specific flight plan that you have to follow to acheive orbit
Step 1:
Take off and acheive an altitude of around 10,000m - 12,000m then build up as much speed as possible with the goal of around 500 m/s
Step 2:
Wait until fuel is at 10% then start pitching up and as you do so turn on the rocket engine and aim for 45 degree and then turn off the jet engines or you could leave until the run out of fuel.
Step 3:
Hold this pitch until you reach 80 km then pitch over to 20 degrees and keep burn until 100km and cut the throttle.
Step 4:
Just do your normal burn to orbit. when you're finished you should have 1-3% of fuel for the re-entry burn.
That's it!
Thanks for reading and have a fantistic day!

@Wills123 hmmmm I'll have to look into that. Also, I thought of another potential name for the craft(maybe better for individual vehicle names): The
Manta Ray
or
Stingray
Or really anything related to Rays(the sea life) due to the tail of the craft resembling the appearance of a ray

@YaMomzBox420 it could be possible to use the calculator mfd script and convert it to be a keyboard, which could remove a chunk of the work, I might give it a shot if I get the chance.

@Wills123 awww man! I was soo excited about the keyboard!! Lol it's still really cool though! I'm getting pretty good with vizzy myself, but still haven't figured out MFDs yet. Maybe that could be another project for the future(if I ever get to it given the current backlog of projects I've accumulated)

@YaMomzBox420 Thanks! The keyboard is actually just some labels and inlets, though everything else functions, I hardly know anything about vizzy, but it's something to keep in mind for the future. Also that video would be very cool!

I really like that custom control console! It looks great and blows my mind that you could make a full keyboard MFD (I also like the way it looks like those holographic keyboards that came out recently). Props on the detailing too since it looks like something that was actually designed and manufactured, not just a simple mock-up rendering. I kinda want to make an advertisement video for it now(kinda like Dreamchaser, etc) if you approve
Lol my phone doesn't like it! Too much lag lol but it's okay. My PC can handle it just fine! Loving the craft so far though! Maybe I might make some kind of vizzy autopilot for it or something if I get the time
