An aircraft inspired by the movie Radio Flyer. Take off and landing is a bit tricky. For some unknown reason, this thing pulls to the right during takeoff so you will need to compensate using yaw. To land, shut off the engine and push the VTOL slider up just before touch down.
Note: If anyone can help me resolve the takeoff issue I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks @jamesPLANESii. I didn't notice the engine was offset, thanks for letting me know. I'll see if it corrects the problem.
Nice plane though!
I think it pulls to the right because the engine is slightly off centre.
@Liquidfox, Thanks for the spotlight!!
@Patrick20206, Thank you for the spotlight!
Again, thanks a lot @Kerbango. It does fly halfway level with the trim down. I have put way more work into this thing than I should have. And I really do appreciate your feedback.
this is great! just put trim almost all the way down while in flight for nice level flight. As one would expect from a flying wagon.
Thank you @Kerbango, I really appreciate your upvote.
