One project has got stuck in my mind .
Converting my multiplex Twin Star to VTOL. I can take the chance with this plane as it is really stable
Here is an article of the MULTIPLEX magister ( Elapor Version : MENTOR ) 40 size aircraft
http://www.rcuniverse.com/magazine/article_display.cfm?article_id=1010Here are Photos of the Magister a single Motor plane converted to twin for VTOL.
There are obvious advantages in such a conversion the Aileron's can be used to counter the torque roll in Hover mode .
On thinking the only factor that bothers me is the position of the motors when transiting from Hover to flight mode and back could affect CG as in the case of Hover the Motors are along the CG Line but when transiting to flight mode the motors move forward hence should push the CG forward and make the plane's nose drop and possibly dive , converse is the case when transiting back the CG would move back thus pulling the nose up and a possible stall .
Have look at the Twin Photo to get a better understanding of what I mean Looking for some inputs if my above concern is valid
Subu is the VTOL guy on the Forum looking for some inputs from him as well.
