This is supposed to be VTOL; I put everything where it is supposed to be, but it doesn't even lift off the ground, though the nozzles look like their working.

    Hey man. The aircraft weighs 18,924 lbs. and the VTOL engine only produces 13,490 lbs of thrust so you are going to need a second engine in order to lift off vertically. Also you are going to need RCNs for pitch control in a hover.
    Cool aircraft and good luck with completing it.

    It's probably too heavy.
