The final result of my experiments. A singe seat four wheel drive with true go anywhere abilities. Group 1 activates the car engine to drive around. VTOL controls the engine forward or back and roll steers. Group 2 activates flight mode. Throttle will then spool up the rotors. Lift off is arounf 72% throttle. VTOL Then controls a cruise jet for fast forward speed. Very stable for a VTOL Flyer, but still needs to be flown. In addition, landing gear control rotates the wheels to flight position.
