KerbalX

Description

Oversized drone with contra-rotating props. Has two docking ports on fuselage for cargo. Top Speed @ sea level and no cargo: 122 m/s; Highest Altitude no cargo: 10500m. Carries up to 13t.

To toggle prop pitch, press 1 when a prop is selected. Be sure to toggle it when going above/below 70m/s and above/below 8000m, which ever comes first.

To fly:
1. Stage to detach engines
2. Press and hold ALT+Q to spin up the back left & front right engines. Press and hold ALT+E to spin up the front left & back right engines.
3. Detach from launch clamp. Keep in mind to toggle prop pitch at 70m/s and/or 8000m.

To land:
Press ALT+X on either two or all engines to cancel roll torque and descend. Land as a normal aircraft and press ALT+X on any remaining engines.

** If the engines don’t spin or fall out of the fairing, you may need to re-build the fairing. I haven’t really had this happen, but if it does then there you go.
**Props cannot handle flying past ~130m/s, even when pitch is toggled correctly.
**If the prop breaks mid-flight, deploying the fairing should release it.
