the birds uses different ways, by spreading the outer wingfeathers, rotating up and down wingtips. some with help of tail to.
WEell, ists a chance to make some functions... the props will be worst.

It's called "Wing Warping". The birds twist their wing up or down to maneuver.

"Birds visibly use wing warping to achieve control. This was a significant influence on early aircraft designers. The Wright brothers were the first group to use warping wings. Their first plane mimicked the bird's flight patterns and wing form."

In WW1, we did the same thing, at first.

then the Thrust vector system is in place! and as on picture , sideways movement is alike as the up/down. some small touchup back and then ready for paint. Of course the endtip is fitted to be right with the EDF specs. It will also have ailerons .

the brown ones too!
I like both. I use the brown and I like it. Then I use Dollard Tree Redi-Board and I like that. I always want to think the brown is tougher and heavier. It might be tougher - maybe - but it weighs the same. It's at least 1mm thicker than the white.
