This Aircraft, Is based on a digital painting I did a while back. It comes from the same force as the Gyroplane I designed and the two share many design cues. To takeoff in stol mode hit 2 slide the vtol slider up and apply max thrust. Hit 2 again to return to normal flight

I intended it to be a heavy bomber that would be both capable of. Mach 1 while still being able to use smaller airfields and the decks of large carriers

    @Average3323 I wanted to add a bomb bay,and I did. Then I realized that I had controls bound to the vtol slider already. So I couldn't open it. Needless to say that was left out of the final. I found bombs under the wings spoiled the look, so left them out. It can defiantly take the weight though. Adding them under the main wings wont spoil the flight characteristics a bit glad you enjoyed it.

    @fusionkb Thanks, I know it would have been easier to just move the engines up to the CG but hey, it looks cool and that's how I drew it

    This is really good! Love how you added the VTOL to adjust wing thrusters. Great job!
