Auto Credit Based on Sockdragger's B22b Sylex flying demonstrator Phase1

Phase 2 of my reworking of LocalCatNamedToroInoue's B22b Sylex demonstrator. This build now uses a rotator block to rotate the full front winglets and also uses some XML code both on the rotators and the back wing control surfaces. Just open the rotator blocks and the back wings in the XML editor to see what exactly I did and how exactly I did it.

Ok, long story short: The front wing now moves up/down with pitch and also for a small amount with trim. It also moves down when the VTOL slider is pulled down to ast as flaps.

The back wing's control surfaces now move with roll AND with Pitch and also move down as flaps when the VTOL slider is pulled down.

Taking off with full flaps (VTOL slider pulled completely down) the plane will rise by itself at 180 mph. For landing, with full flaps, it will hold height at approximately 35% power.

This build serves mainly to demonstrate the use of XML for combined flaps/control surfaces. However you can always use it as a base for your own projects. Feel free to use what you can
