VTOL controls the flaps, trim trims the aircraft and is best set to about 2-5% down after some speed has been gained, Flaps don't do too much ahowever they are useful for losing speed when landing. I was originally hoping to create something similar to an M.B. 157 but with a mosre open engine cowling, I got other ideas along hte way and now it looks like this, I don't mind it however I think it either has too short wings or too long a tail to be stable with high angles of deflection on the control surfaces. As long as the trim is kept to a minimum it should fly relatively well. Thank you, hopefully you can enjoy it.
