    No problems with your modification of my Tomcat as I did the same of someone elses, however if you read the instructions you would have discovered that solely afterburner and solely wing-sweep as well as wing-sweep plus afterburner is available with variable thrust as opposed to a single after-burner speed in your design. Furthermore the flaps, slats, elevators, rudder, glove vanes and other control surfaces (spoilers) are in perfect working order which I have checked following your upload (including against your edited design at the alternative page). I also noticed you have disabled the exhaust scale which significantly takes away from the design and is also technically incorrect.
