FLYABLE
TWIN-ROTOR PASSENGER AIRCRAFT

- GTFO! enabled
- automatic banline avoidance

[ IMPORTANT ]

Due to a current SL viewer bug with animesh, region crossings will sometimes make the vehicle look bad for a second or two after crossing. It's jarring and frankly untenable.
Until the viewer developers fix this bug, there's unfortunately nothing I can do. Once LL fixes this, however, the bug will no longer happen and crossings will work flawlessly.
That being said, it is just a visual glitch, it still functions as it should.

Great for friends to hop into and fly around SL. The controls are intuitive and navigating quickly becomes second nature. The best flight experience I've had in SL.

Very detailed vehicle with a few issues.

This is one of the most detailed vehicles I have seen in Second Life. The way the rotors move while flying and the way the land gear retract and extend is amazing.
The vehicle itself is easy to fly and auto-attaching hud is very easy to use. I also like the ability to easily swap pilots. The vehicle does have a few issues. When flying, it seems to require constant adjustments especially when changing directs or after a direction change. Additionally, when landing or taking off vertically, the vehicle tends to also drift forward or backwards. You can cut engine power to zero and compensate for this, but it's still there. One feature I would like is to have a resize script in the vehicle. When I try to resize it manually, the doors never seem to resize with the vehicle. One additional request would be to have the body textures included so users can create their own paint schemes.

Smooth Vtol
full star full star full star full star empty star Posted June 07, 2023 by LykanXEclipse

One of the best mini Vtols I've seen in SL, it fly like butter, can do cargo and passagers.

Looks like takes inspiration from the vtols seen in the avatar movie and Call Of Duty Advanced Warfare but taken to another level of it's own,The voice alerts are useful to known the state of the aircraft or proximity to banlines or security orbs, very professional.

Note: This aircraft does not have auto keep cruise speed or hover like other aircrafts in SL so like a IRL pilot you will use the controls a lot WASD and E(in my case space key) and C keys.

Anyway was a worth purchase to add to my collection.

This is a very smooth transport. It has voice efx when powering engine on/off. The raised dust at ground level is beautiful (and efx over water). The landing gears are well detailed and raise/lower realistically. I'll be flying this lil' baby for a long time to come!
