A forward-swept wing is an aircraft wing configuration in which the quarter-chord line of the wing has a forward sweep. Typically, the leading edge also sweeps forward. -Wikipedia-
-I've tried to make it as a VTOL take-off, but I have no idea how to put it so I've make it as a forward take-off.

There is VTOL solution: gotta make it variable-sweep winged. VTOL trust will climb thousands of feet. Retract wings back, at altitude, the COL goes back and the COM move forward - a smooth and fast ride, with practice.

@ChaMikey maybe its just a coincident..
looks like someone made it before me :p @Waemoth
