*You must have scripts turned on in the world settings*

I decided to attempt to build a VTOL spacecraft now that Spaceengineers is much more stable and the Vanguard is the result. Making use of Whip's rotor thruster script to make flying this easy.

Capable of travelling between any planet and orbit whilst carrying a large cargo of vehicles, space engineers or goods.

Deck 4:
Bridge

Deck 3:
Engineering - Life support - Manufacturing

Deck 2:
Living quarters

Deck 1:
Hangar

Weapons:
- Custom heavy rocket turret
- 4 x gatling turrets
- 1 x interior turret

Pilot commands;
1 - Unlock engine rotors
2 - Rotate engine rotors

4 - Extend landing gear piston
5 - Un/Lock landing gear

7 - Open/close main ramp
8 - Open/close hangar doors

Thanks to Whiplash and RDAV for their fantastic scripts

Hello PacSMG. Thank you for your complaints. To turn the Vtol thrusters from the pilots seat use buttons 1 and 2 to lock/unlock the rotors and rotate them. It definitely does work in atmosphere as you can see in the screenshots. Have you got scripts turned on so that Whips rotor thruster script works? The slight drifting up I believe is a side effect of having large masses on rotors or the rotor script not perfectly balancing against gravity.

@MACH Velocity I want to like this but I have some complaints: the ship seems to accelerate on its own (flys up by itself but seems to be fine once the vtol thrusters are removed), does not work in atmosphere even if though it has atmosphere thrusters?, and how do you rotate the vtol?
