Another take on thrust vectoring.
I tried to make it less complex, with fewer parts, whilst retaining good flight characteristics.

Nothing to turn on or off; just throttle up and fly.

Oh, there is a spin recovery parachute, as things can get quite "spinny". It is activated with action group 1.

Have fun.
