Hello all, first off I would like to thank you all for the support thanks to you I have 2000pt!

Today I bring you something a little unusual, a vertical takeoff and landing airplane. This combines the operating flexibility of a helicopter with the speed range and comfort of an airplane. it is difficult to fly so do read the flight manual!

Flight Manual:

Preflight:
1:start engines
2:set controls to locked
3: turn on joysticks
4:open slider 1 (you will need it later)

Takeoff:
1:set throttle to full power
2:wait until altitude is ~100m
3:retract landing gear
4:slowly and incrementally push slider one forward to increase speed
5: once engines are completely forward deactivate landing and takeoff mode (AG 1)

Landing:
1: fly to landing spot
2: activate landing and takeoff mode (AG 1)
3: put down landing gear
4:set throttle to ~60% or lower
5: put slider one to the rear to quickly slow down
6:quickly descend to the ground

Notes:
It is hard to control at low speed so watch out
Don’t pull to hard on the pitch it will loose control
If a loss of control happens turn on landing and takeoff mode (AG 1)
Don’t leave your rotors at an angle in between up and down past 60ms it will do weird things when you try to put the rotors to down position
It was inspired by this thing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AgustaWestland_AW609
And have fun!
