Re: Lambda Shuttle controls

Yeah, and we all know how the Emperor likes a smooth ride. The pilot must have been kacking himself, hence the leisurely take off.

Re: Lambda Shuttle controls

I think the lambda is just one of those pro crafts u have to master in FS, a little like the choppers in BF2 i guess, most noobs crash the bf2 choppers pretty quickly. What i wouldnt mind seeing is a more powerfull and responsive VTOL engine, as it seems too struggle too get the thing off the ground and doesnt respond very quickly when u let go of S too land, engine seems too keep powering for ages making landing too slow for combat. Could definatly do with sum tweaking.

Re: Lambda Shuttle controls

I tend to just shift to another seat other than the pilot seat if I'm going in for a combat landing, that really cuts the power quickly and drops you like a stone, of course the worry with that is if someone spawns in the pilot seat before you land a screws up your nice little glide path.

Re: Lambda Shuttle controls

I fly with joystick. Trouble there is finding the sweet spot for no engine idle between VTOL and flying,

Thats the scene with the Rebel Strike Team taking off in their stolen shuttle from the MC Carrier smile
