Slave 1 (Atmos-ready)

Description
Vanilla ship, no mods

Took a lot of calculating and recalculating, but I managed to finish a vanilla and aesthetically pleasing version of the personal ship of the famous bounty hunter, Boba Fett.

FireSpray-31 Patrol Craft, Kuat Systems Engineering
Mass: 500,000+ KG
Seating: 2 (1 pilot, 1 passenger)
Cargo: One small

Feature List:
2x Large rockets
2x Auto Gatling turrets
Jump Drive for long distance travel
Cargo loading ramp
Medical Room
Oxygen tank and pressurized Cabin
Rotary atmospheric thrusters

Piloting Instructions:
Toolbar#1:

Key 1 turns the rockets on.

Key 2 switches your atmospheric thrusters between two modes, vertical thrust and forward thrust. Use Forward Thrust mode when taking off (Use >= 1MN for best results) or when you need to move quickly forward. Use Vertical Thrust mode when you need more stability or better turning in atmospheric flight.

Keys 3&4 control your atmospheric thrust. When flying vertically, I recommend using around 2.5MN for stable flight, and increase when turning to turn faster or to dodge obstacles.

Toobar#2:
Keys 1-4 allow you to manually control the rotors for both your atmospheric thrusters individually. This lets you perform different maneuvers that you normally could not, but is reserved for skilled pilots. If you aren't comfortable, don't use these options, you WILL crash the ship.

! LANDING TIPS !
Learning how to land this ship in atmosphere is a little bit tricky. Inertial dampeners do not work on the wing thrusters, so you need to manually control them. The safest way to land the ship is to bring it to a stop while you are in vertical thrust mode. Once you are moving slow enough, toggle to forward thrust mode, and tilt the ship into landing position(gears facing down). Reduce your thrust to around 1-1.5MN on the atmospheric thrusters, and then FEATHER your forward Ion thrusters to slowly bring the ship down, keeping the gears aligned with whatever surface you want. Once the gears are in place, lock them, and then turn your atmospheric thrusters off.
