[Read Description]
This is an updated version of my F-35 that includes a turning rear engine and retractable landing gear.

[How to use it]
Press 1 to engage VTOL/hover mode. When taking off, throttle up to no more than 40%. Then wait 5-10 seconds and then throttle up to about 50%. Now slowly toggle the VTOL switch back to the middle and throttle up to 100%. Press 1 again to deactivate VTOL and deactivate the RCN (optional).
Press 2 and slide the VTOL switch down to raise the landing gear.

[!]
For some reason the plane sometimes likes to roll and yaw. I don't know what causes this problem and I don't know how to solve it but it sometimes is there and it sometimes isn't. It might be a bug. If you know how to fix it, suggestions are welcome! I hope it doesn't cause too much trouble. Have a nice flight!

    @Matthew240 Oh sorry. Uhm, try to build most of the thing using wings. Get some good images and blueprints and replicate every perspective off the craft. I don't really have any other tips. I hope it's helpfull.

    VTOL is tough, but that seems to be par for the course for VTOL models. Flight characteristics are a little sensitive, but once I got used to it, I found it a blast to fly. Flying through the canyon in this baby at 450mph is a hoot. The build quality is exceptional, and about as close as you could probably get to the real thing I think. Great job!

    @Teus gladly, @Night raider you're right about that one. I just had it happen to my War Frog. It keeps failing to upload but I'll "submit it for the approval of the midnight society" as soon as it let's me.

    @Teus usually for me on my other planes sometimes the roll is caused by the rotators moving objects into wing parts and breaking the planes physics.
