(1.10.10) Vulcan | Steampunk Passenger Rotodyne

(Fictional)
As everyone else was all caught up in their normal airplanes, one single aircraft appeared that was unlike anything ever seen. It was known as a Rotodyne, looked like an airplane and a helicopter fused together, and was meant to completely change air travel. It had the speed of a normal airplane, and the takeoff and landing capabilities of a helicopter, which made it the perfect machine for underdeveloped places that don't have the supporting infrustructure for conventional airplanes.

Top speed: 136 Knots
Length: 20 Meters
Width (including voxels) 13.75 Meters
Height: 8 Meters


-Seating for:
1 Pilot
1 Engineer
16 Passengers
-1 Heater
-2 Toilets
-1 Double furnace boiler (linked directly to the coal bunkers)
-Fire extinguisher, welding torch, other small equipment
-Altitude hold
-Control surface stabilizers
-Cockpit lights, cabin lights, navigation lights, instrument lights, forward spotlight, landing lights


1: Turn the damper all the way up
2: Light boiler
3: Once steam pressure is up, you should be good to go


-When you are taking off and landing vertically, just slam the throttle of the rotor all the way up and use the pitch of the blades to move up and down.
-The "VTOL Steam Boost" will open the valve to the main rotors engine a bit more to be able to fly and hover like a helicopter.
-Only use the VTOL Steam Boost for vertical take-off and landing.
-The Main Rotor is designed to top out at 61 RPS and not go any higher.
-The Control Surface Stabilizers will NOT override the main controls, and will instead just make flying a lot easier.


-The altitude hold used when flying in place is slow, but it is as fast as I could get it without it bobbing up and down a bunch before settling down.
-The boiler is set to produce just enough steam to for both the main rotor and the side props to be at full power, but not if the VTOL steam boost is on.
