Yes. No more such basic fuselage wings. I tried the complex one and it somewhat worked. No custom control surfaces for now.
VTOL and trim down to attain stable fight. Landing is tricky, so land gently then bring the nose to the ground while braking. When turning, pitch gently and slowly. Yawing may help stabilize the craft.
