I present the Valkon Planes from builder BeefTenderloin!

Just finished the Valkron series of aircraft - The Valkron and Sea Valkron

Valkron

http://www./view/m2viwd2q90uhmzg/Valkron.craft

The Valkron is a stable, single-engined jet, with decent stock range (it can go to the continent to the east of booster bay and back.) It's stable, maneuverable, and features tilted leading wing edges that allow for shorter take off distance.

Sea Valkron

The Sea Valkron is a modified version of the Valkron that can perform both water and runway landings. It is slightly slower, and less maneuverable than the Valkron, due to the large flotation devices slung underneath the fuselage.

For water landings, the following process should be followed.

1) Cut engine power.

2) Begin to glide, holding a nose-up position.

3) Let your speed drop to at least 50m/s.

4) Level out, and try to hit the water with minimal downwards velocity.

5) Hold position upon impact, and once you begin to decelerate, allow the craft to tip backwards. Do not let it tip forwards.

For takeoffs, simply throttle up to max and hold pitch up.

Hope these are satisfactory!

But wait! Hold the dang phone! For the low low price of only £9999.99 you can get not just 2 valkons and sea valkons, but we will JUMBO size the second set!!

Jumbo Valkon

The Jumbo Valkon - For when flying three Valkons in close formation is just too difficult! The Jumbo Valkon features a 3-man cockpit, two engines (that's 100% more engines than the standard Valkon!) and tri-composite wings with a tilted leading edge. It features easy-2-go takeoff technology; if you just activate SAS and throttle up, the JV will lift up into the air with no control input.

Jumbo Sea Valkon

The Jumbo Sea Valkon is adapted in a similar way to the Sea Valkon, by having flotation devices mounted underneath, and a counterbalance added to the tail. As such, the landing process is similar.

1) Cut engine power.

2) Begin to glide, holding a nose-up position.

3) Let your speed drop to at least 50m/s.

4) Level out, and try to hit the water with minimal downwards velocity.

5) Hold position upon impact, and once you begin to decelerate, allow the craft to tip backwards. Do not let it tip forwards.

For takeoffs, throttle to max and hold pitch up. SEE BELOW for the rest.

Note on the Jumbo Sea Valkon - Working on a new wing to remove the need for the rolling maneuver. EDIT: Released

Updated the wings to the Jumbo Sea Valkon.

Takeoff procedure is now hold pitch up until around 25m/s, quickly press pitch forward, then continue pressing pitch up. The craft should rise out of the water.
