An expirimental design for all those intersested. It basicly moves the center of mass around in order to rotate the plane. WARNING: UNABLE TO LAND ONCE IN THE AIR! DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DECREASE THRUST WHILE FLYING! How to take off: VTOL and thrust to 100%, wait until speed reaches about 300 mph, use act 1 to detatch the launch vehicle, once at a reasonable altitude, use act 2 to detatch rear fins. Then use pitch and roll just like any onther plane. It is very slow at movement, so it will take a while to manuver. Happy flying!
