Is the tail motor tilt angle permanently adjusted at some inclination ?

NICE JOB!!! this is the first volt style RC build I have seen can you share you code & build experience with issues that need to be resolved?? with the community ??? I was wondering of this is possible on the APM any one willing to pick up the challenge because this would be the best for hindered gass & electric volt plain

Hi Stephen , 

that is a great step ..an hybrid bt a plane and a copter ..it will save lots of energy and time bt waypoints ..genial.

Really nice! Thought about something similar and now it's already reality!

As Fernando said, it will save a lot of energy while flying fast and long distances but lacks nothing of the quadcopter benefits. This concept has good prospects. Carry on!

Looks pretty cool Stephen.

Cool, I'm working on a VTOL concept too, but for fast speed.

What about put a pusher as rear rotor and make it tilt backward/down to get a trimotor ? :D I love the concept.

Excellent ! might want ti wrap the motor wires to the boom I like how it took off when you got to altitude !
