Description:

My current version of a C5 Galaxy aircraft with semi-realistic controls and auto-pilot.
Improved controls and auto-pilot are still in work, but will be updated.

*If plane glitches out for any reason, repair/backspace and it should be fine.

Have fun!

Flight Controls:
[WS] – Pitch
[AD] – Roll
[QE] – Yaw
[G] – Landing Gear

Ground Controls:
[Left & Right Arrow Keys] – Steering (Auto Speed Limited)
[Up Arrow Key] – Forward
[Down Arrow Key] – Reverse (Shuts Down Thrusters)

Engine Controls:
[Space] – Thrusters
[Left Shift] – Increase Throttle (Increments of 20%)
[Right Shift] – Decrease Throttle (Increments of 20%)
[Left Alt] – Full Thrust (Hold for half a second)

Miscellaneous:
[Z] – Ramp Controls (Defaults Closed)
[L] – Lights

Auto-Pilot Notes:
-> Auto corrects Roll when the aircraft is banked below 30 degrees vertically
-> Auto corrects Pitch for steady level flight
* Plane has to be almost level at max thrust (WIP)
-> Aircraft rotates automatically at Take-Off (Carrier Runway Length)
-> Vertical stabilizers auto-trim for 60% – 100% Throttle setting
-> 40% Throttle setting near ground allows for a smooth landing
* Provided Roll and Pitch are Stabilized (should be after a few seconds of no flight input)

This is a cargo aircraft and isn’t supposed to do aerobatic maneuvers (although it can) and thus
for the "auto-pilot" controls to work it must fly at realistic angles (pitch and roll)
