Seyid Elters
Are the wings moveable or do you have to pick a position while building?

They can still be moved but just not in unison.

You have 2 options.
- Fully extended ~ closed wings : C30 and C31 parts
- Fully extended wings only : C29 and C32 parts
When the wings are in asymmetrical wing sweep, the F-14 can fly and land.
