Just finished the A&A Models EWR VJ-101C-X2 German VTOL fighter testbed....
The main engines are in VTOL mode - with the translating intakes extended and the front lift engines intake and exhaust doors open.
The main engines horizontal in CTOL mode (when the translating intakes would be retracted and the forward engine doors closed)
CTOL.....
VTOL.
