Build: AirLifter
The AirLifter is an airplane that can actually fly thanks to a robotic lifter.
The plane and the lifter are like two acrobats; one hovering in the air and the other holding it up.
Their gaze is reminiscent of a light and happy bird and a strong and good-natured hippo, respectively.
The plane is easily detachable from the lifter and is designed like a top loading cargo to play with minifigures.
The model is built with only the parts included in the Mindstorms Robot Inventor Set (+ 1 optional 36 tooth gear).
The plane can be piloted with the remote controller, or on autopilot by placing colored tiles on the ground.
The plane behaves very differently on the ground and in the sky.
Commands are queued for later execution, for instance, you can place multiple tiles together in order to perform a procedure after landing or taking off.

Upon landing, the Lose sound is played if a collision occurred during the flight.
