This is probably one of the best planes I have ever made. It has the ability to switch between normal and canard surfaces. Use Vtol down to switch to canard mode when on the ground (pitch will be reversed on takeoff, one you are in the air, roll over),use Vtol up to switch to canard mode if in the air (as soon as you switch, roll over) It is much more agile when in canard mode. Only land this plane in normal mode. This plane took me a really long time to perfect, so I hope you enjoy!

    @General360 thanks! It's actually not my idea though :P Someone made a plane like this a while ago, and I got inspired. This is the second plane of this type on the site
