- change the color theme to Orange-Black
- add rescue platform
- add ecu for main jet engine, will now actively reduce output if battery is full
- add ecu for aux jet and will now limit the max rps in case of engine meltdown
- add synthetic vision
- set the sunroof and floor screen to only turn on when look at
- add new set of floodlights
- add 4 extra exhaust for aux engine.
- changed fluid jet to propeller
- add weapon armory at the back of the passenger seats
- redesign the med bed so it can hold more item under the bed
- redesign the manual power panel
- add Mid-air stabilizer mode (still WIP)
- redesign the entry of the main fuel tank at the side of the craft
- add extra motor for variable lift power.

-change fuel rate to 1-2 digits decimal for more accurate reading(main fuel tank LR).

-change default blade motor throttle to 1 for easy maneuvering

-remove aux engine throttle limits for more speed output

Speed
Full thrust and afterburner 760
Full thrust 745
Eco 700
Quick charge 525
Non jet 300

Main generator 3-4 hr 300
Full thrust 15 mins 760

-Fix aux rps display

-adjust the ECU for main engine for more output at sudo idle mode

Problem pending fix:

-need to add link control with aux engine throttle and duct fan so it don’t push the vtol forward when throttle is zero.
-link starter battery with main set of battery in case user forgot to switch on the breaker for charging.
-first time switch from vtol mode to forward flight mode always have left right motor rotation was not synchronized, causing unstable flight during the first change.

Future plans:

-May need to consider reduce weight or increase lift power.
-fix the wiggle problem
-finish the fps fire hose system.
-remove unused system or parts
-implement synthetic visions
-beacon triangulations display system
-weapons?
-redesign the aux power system to see if it can provide the same level of thrust with more fuel efficiency.
-redesign the interface of the whole cockpit
-maybe less monitor?
-reimplement the fire detection and fire fighting system?

Updated Hardy - Self preserving focused multi-use VTOL.

Hardy update log 18/4

Added:

-Ducted fan at the front of the Aux Engines, added reverse thrust function, will engage for 4 secs when aux engine “shutdown”. Fixing autopilot overshooting target destination when going in high speed problem.

-Floor display into the virtual windshield system so now can see thru floor.

-ECU for main engine, if main battery set is lower than 0.97 it will start running full power, else remain sudo idle mode for fuel reservations.(sudo idle mode still enough to cover flight power usage)

Adjustments :

-Overdrove the main engine so now it can provide the same amount of electricity needed with even less fuel.(4-5/s to 1-2/s)

-Extend the fuel tank to cover the ducted fan, total fuel amount now increase from 33000 to 38000

-R.I.S.E system will now automatically turn off once alt is above 10.

-fixed pitch and roll input for the hud display, now can correctly display artificial horizon on screen.

Problem pending fix:

-need to add link control with aux engine throttle and duct fan so it don’t push the vtol forward when throttle is zero.

-link starter battery with main set of battery in case user forgot to switch on the breaker for charging.
