    Even though you said it wasn't for the contest, I'll enter it in, unless you submit a new plane within 20 minutes, what country are you from? so you can get the winning country benefit if your country wins, or if you win I can give it to the rest of your country

    Wow, an inventive concept, I must try making a folding tail.

    Even easier fix: just set the actuators to different activation groups (e.g. 5 and 6) and lower them one at a time. Just reverse the order (carefully!) to raise them again. I tried it and it seems to work pretty good, though it doesn't look quite as cool as when they come down synchronized!

    I like it. Would rate if I could! Flys quite well, better then I expected. Hilariously violent crashes if you lower the VTOL instead of raising it (which was the first thing I did after download...didn't read the instructions :P). I think you can avoid the issue with the tail colliding with the wings altogether by switch from a T style tail to an upside-down T style (if that makes sense). I'd expect it to still fly well after some tweaking. Either way it's a promising design.

    would love to see the wings be able to fold back up after folding them down.

    love the folding wings, very appropriate for a carrier take off plane
