This is a little thing Ive been playing with lately, after seeing a very interesting model by a contributor whose name currently escapes me ( please let me know if you are the one who built the very nice jet with the red stripe; you really do deserve credit for the idea behind this method of thrust vectoring).

Nothing fancy here, just take off and fly as normal. You can activate / deactivate the thrust vectoring assembly with activation group 1. Note that you can trim pitch with VTOL and trim controls.

Have fun.
