I took the P-51 and turned it in to some experimental jet.
It has shown great performance in landing and can actually use its own speedbrakes for a virtual trim.
100% brakes will pitch the aircraft up, and anywhere below, like 50% brakes, will cause it to pitch down.
This has been used while landing and it helps very much, keeping in mind that the normal pitch controls can be too sensitive.
VTOL up is just for extending a little intake at the bottom of the aircraft. It increases drag for landing.
Pitching up too much at high speeds will put the aircraft in a spin.
Be careful with the controls and have fun!
