    I believe there is a custom gear with the hinge rotators and small rotators set to be activated on Gear
    It's on Tully2001's post @Verterium

    Nice! I love the stiletto! Always wanted a try at it. If you still need a hand, let me know and I'll make an honest attempt! Welcome to SP by the way! I have made many great friends here and I'm sure you will too with your very positive attitude! Cheers!

    @Warbirdnation VTOL Up. I have a hinge in there. I used Fine Tuner to hide it and make it look like the wheels just move up with some hidden mechanism.

    How do you get the wheels to fold up?

    @Warbirdnation One tip, you should download Fine Tuner, it helps so much. I use it all the time, that's why my lines/connections are so smooth.

    @Warbirdnation :D
    I have actually played this game for 3 months before I made an account today. I have like 50 planes already made, but most of them suck.
