    @ToastyTaco the answer is both yes and no. So you can make the shape of the wings using fuselage parts but you need the actual wing parts to generate the lift. What I do is make the shape without any wing parts and then when it’s done, I add the wings but I scale them down to 0.1,0.1,0.1. If you take a look at my last couple builds and take them apart, you can see what I mean a bit better. If you’d like help working with custom wings though feel free to ask!

    @Mustang51 I have a question, can you use fuselages as the wings of the craft?

    This is a cool looking a nice flying jet! If you want the takeoff to be more smooth though, you should move the landing gear a little more forwards. Just behind the CoG is optimal (that’s around the CoM)
