I have a dream to fly! Pt.2

It is me [again!](https://www.reddit.com/r/LEGOFortnite/s/rNoPm8bebD) With my dream to fly with physics-based vehicle. Well, I'm no expert but it's close enough to my liking and the best part is, all the parts used are basic parts obtained in the odyssey! (I think? Correct me if I'm wrong)

Also all parts were built without any glitch methods too! (I don't even know how, but I saw some posts that mentioned this thing)

I actually accidentally destroyed the main part of the old vehicle while customizing it, so I had to build it from the ground up. Since I was at it, might as well upgrade it!

Lo and behold! The Mk.2!

The video is long because I'm showcasing all the controls for it, and trying to show all the parts I used.

Down here are descriptions of the Mk.2:

• I added steerable tyres to it for better land navigation (no reverse thrusters).

• Still retained the balloons for the "Oh sh\*t!" moments.

• It still retained the hovering ability like previous iteration and can navigate in 3D plane (like a quad drone), if I desire so. Included in the video.

• The turning thrusters were replaced with smaller thrusters. 2 pairs near the nose and another 2 pairs at the back; simulating a rear rudder. At first I only added the rear pairs but it made the plane spins while turning. As such, the front pairs were added as counterbalance.

• The taking off steps from ground can be done in three ways:

1) Use balloons to gain verticality, then forward thrust.

2) Use hover thrusters to lift off, then forward thrust.

3) The realistic way (somewhat, and showcased in the video) are done by priming the nose climb thrusters, then use hover thrusters to lift it up a little, then immediately hit the forward thrusters. Additionally, if I find a climbing ramp or hills, I only need to prime nose climb thrusters and hit the forward thrust until it lifts off on its own!

• The Mk2 now fly with better stablity! No more nose dives/climbs if I angled the plane correctly. I can barrel roll on all direction without needing too much of a correction too.

What do you guys think of my vehicle? My next project would probably be a helicopter. Until then!
