MA-03 Viking II [New DLC-free variant!]

[Guest]

A stable and fun to fly VTOL aircraft using a J-404 Panther as a tiltable main engine and 4 J-20 Juno engines to provide the balancing forward vertical thrust.
This variant uses RCS for control in vertical mode and has enough fuel to do several takeoffs and landings.

Action groups:

2: activates the afterburner¹

3: automated transition toggle

NEW VARIANT!

Welcome to the MA-03B, a version that sacrifices the tilt-engine design and some agility in exchange of being easier to manufacture (it's DLC-free). It uses a J-404 Panther as a main engine for normal flight operation and 8 J-20 Junos spread across 4 service bays as engines for the hover mode.

This variant uses RCS for control in vertical mode and has enough fuel to do several takeoffs and landings.

PS: I don't know if it's more convenient to transform this into an "Emporium" tipe thread or just to post new crafts in new topics.

I'm also using them in my next VTOL (maybe, I have 3 working prototypes so far and plans for a fourth) a light cargo plane that's something in between a Dornier Do 31, an Osprey and VTOL VR's Kestrel.
