The T-1 Dropship is a VTOL capable orbital military transport vehicle with capacity for five total occupants. Per it’s name, the Dropship operates best as a rapid means of ascending and descending from orbit. It has limited capabilities for atmospheric flight owing to it’s dual wingtip jet engines. The Dropship is slightly unstable in orbital flight, and requires minor attitude adjustments with RCS.
On take off, use the Dropship’s gyroscope, heading lock and RCS to maintain stable flight. Activate Air Control Surfaces (ACS) for atmospheric exit and reentry. Landing the Dropship is slightly more difficult. Set the throttle to no more than 35% during takeoff.
As it’s name suggests, the Dropship is meant to drop. As you descend, cut the forward propulsion engines and pitch up the nose. As you bleed forward airspeed for altitude, the Dropship will enter a stall and proceed to drop. Activate the VTOL engines, extend the landing gear and control the crafts speed and attitude until landed.

I’ve noticed some odd glitches in mobile as well. I had another design that used single side bay doors on the edges, but one half didn’t close when activated. Gimbal ranges on the right side engines are all messed up as well. Apparently it’s some glitch when you use single sided doors. @Lkninml

Very cool. Goes completely out of control after a steady takeoff no matter what I try on mobile.
