MF-3-F Swanhead TV

Auto Credit Based on Xogo's MF-3-E Swanhead

This may be the last of the MF-3 model Swanheads - I don't think I can top it. It will probably remain the only one with thrust vectoring. Yeah, this has thrust vectoring (Sort of). The thing is, the Swanhead was never designed for thrust vectoring, so, to make it work, each engine had to be placed manually. You can't use the mirror function to make another. Now, there will likely be more Swanheads coming, but they're much more of a hastle to make with thrust vectoring functions - I'm really trying to make something to replace it now. Rockets on 1-3.

    @SelectAKey The vectoring is supposed to be used for pitching, rather than trim. I Wanted to make this plane more maneuverable than any of my previous Swanheads (Don't know if that worked), while taking out one of the inner wings to reduce drag. One or two of my really old planes have trim controls, but I stopped making them since I started using mouse-joystick, which lets you do trim just with minor pitch controls.

    (BTW,[shameless plug] if you want something to actually make you sick, try one of the X maneuvers)
