Auto Credit Based on DragonCreations's Folding Wings Challenge

This is my entry for the folding wings challenge. The plane is built from scratch and it is not based of any real plane. When moving the VTOL-slider forward the main wings fold backwards, the landing gear retracts and a pair of front canards pops out. I am not overly happy with this plane, mainly because of the fact that it cannot land. Feel free to modify it and try to make it better!

    I love the asthetics but the performance could've been better, and I did mamage to land it, without the front landing gear though. @kickasshes
