My very old, not so good-looking design of vectored-thrust aircraft, featuring lots of compromisses in order to make this plane flyable. In given configuration this plane is capable of doing some amazing maneuvres, including vertical hovering ( for which you really need some skill and feeling or the slow motion mode=) ) Just activate the group 1 to enter the vectored thrust mode and make sure you don't hit the elevator too hard, otherwise you might lose control of the plane. Therefore i would advise you to turn it on only after the takeoff and gaining some speed. If you think that the elevator is too sensitive- just reduce the turning angle of the hinge rotators attached to the engines. Have fun and feel free to modify it;)
