A grader! After many months of working away at this project, I am happy to say I'm "done", for now...

Controls:
PITCH - forward/reverse
ROLL - turn front wheels
YAW - center articulation
BRAKE - brake

#1 - VTOL UP: open rear radiator fan
VTOL DOWN: drop deck and blade
TRIM DOWN: 50% centers deck

#2 - VTOL DOWN: 50% centres blade
TRIM DOWN: blade pitch

#3 - VTOL DOWN: rotate blade CW
VTOL UP: rotate blade CCW

It doesn't work well on pavement, so try the grass or sand. Hope you enjoy it!

    Wow, this is awesome man. I enjoy mechanically complex builds, and this certainly fits into that category. Great work all around here.
