Gonk with the Wind - Stunt plane for Draygo's Aerodynamics and NO GYROS!

Description
Will update with more info soon! But as promised, the finally working and FUN version of the plane from the current survival series :)

Setup using control module for full WASDQE controls and also bound to a gamepad using left stick + triggers.

Has a backup gyro but is powered off.

Takeoff: Set thrust override to max. Turn thrusters on. Plane will take off on it's own.
Landing: Drop to 60-80m/s and somewhere around 100m up. Disable thrust, plane will land on it's own.

Flies best with Drag-mult set to 100 and in a world with increased speed limits (recommend 500m/s)

Enjoy!

@DraygoKorvan Fun! GG man, you made this actually be a thing you can do...

Most dangerous contraption ever created.....

What is this sorcery.

Good hint, @Const. With the Aerodynamics Physics mod normal blocks will create lift, too. That's why it's also working with 1x1 blocks. It's even recommended to switch Digi's lift (calculation) off via command line "/drag-digi off".
Without the Aerodynamics Physics mod this elevator may be useless, though ;-)

@w4stedspace, i realized my error. i did not have scripting on for the world i created. Another question i have when i was working through your blocks. do you add an argument when you add the EA Prog to a timer?

@Mr Renderd With the mods as listed?
