Auto Credit Based on OrbitalSailorsAerospace's ST-05 "Sparrow Mk-1"

Successor of the ST-05 "Sparrow", the Vanguard-CH2 (VG-CH2) "Sparrow Mk-2" is a overall improved version of the plane, and even though it is slower and less manuverable than its predecessor, it has more features like VTOL capabillities and guided missiles.


Max speed (when not loaded): ~655m/s
Max speed (when loaded): ~550m/s
Stall speed: ~100m/s
Max altitude: 15.000m

How to properly take off verticaly:

  1. With only the VTOL engines activated, throttle up to around 50% and slowly pich down.
  2. When the plane is at around 200 meter from the ground turn on the main engines and wait for the prograde to be in a more horizontal position.
  3. When the prograde is at a horizontal position, turn the VTOL engines off and throttle up to 100%

This transition may be a little tricky and not that smooth some times but it's possible (i'm not that sure abount changing from horizontal to vertical flight though, every time i tried i failed (but maybe you can do it!))

Note: the front stabilizer is meant only for take offs and sharp turns, when used all the time it can really destabilize the plane
