Variable Sweep Back - Experimental

1,253 Bolter  7.9 years ago

This is an aircraft that can rotate it wings to reduce the amount of drag allowing for very high speeds. Use 1 and the VTOL slider to activate the swing back capability. This is experimental so excuse the handling issues. Hope you enjoy!

    These are tough to build. Maintaining stability and agility in both swept and unswept positions is one of the hardest parts. I built three concept variable-swept wings myself.
