Yes! Stowaway motor! Using the new blocks, you can now stow the jet engines when not in use. They begin outside of the aircraft, because of game issues if they were started when they were stowed. Use detacher 1 to activate the rotator, and then you will be able to freely rotate the engines. Down on the VTOL stick brings them down and stowed, up causes issues. 2 to start engine.

    The jet engine is useless, unless you want to get tail heavy when climbing. Otherwise it is very hard to get out of a dive, but however, it is actually pretty good for the look.

    Just thought of another method of launching the engines. Stay tuned :)

    Very cool plane. The stowaway engine is neat though it produces an overwhelming torque on the plane and causes it to nose dive. Still cool though.
