And another one!!! This one has variable sweep wings as well, which are controlled with the VTOL slider. This was another fun build, and it was even more fun to see that it flew very well the first try. Please be aware that the nose is very pitchy when the wings are swept all the way foreward, you can even fly backwards if you pitch hard enough. Once you are off the ground (takeoff speed=~185), for optimal flight, reduce throttle to about 75%. Bombs drop with AcG=1,2, and 3. Have fun and don't forget to come back to rate and give me some suggestions or concerns.
