VA-DADV-X3 Magpie

[RedDwarfIV]

The Veto Aerospace Duna Ascent/Descent Vehicle Experimental version 3 Magpie is a rocket-powered VTOL craft capable of basic manoeuvring in Kerbin's atmosphere. It has not yet been tested on Duna. The craft is intended to be capable of both VTOL and STOL, though STOL landings are recommended.

The Magpie follows after the Sparrow (abandoned for falling over sideways) and the Robin (Fuel balancing issues.)

Action Groups:

1 - VTOL engines

2 - Main Ascent Engines

3 - Interplanetary/Deorbit Engine

4 - Wheel gear

5 - Landing legs

well just tried it for some reason gravity is heavier on my planet because i couldn't even get it off the ground. not sure if im doing something wrong i tried VTOL and rolling it down the runway just didn't have the lift or trust that it needed not sure tho.

The wings are for control, not lift. It will usually take off with VTOL at 2/3rds throttle.
