I made some VTOL craft based on some real-life experimental ducted-fan craft the US Air Force tested in the 1950s and 1960s.

I used the following mods:

Kerbal Aircraft Expansion (KAX)

The first one is based on the Bell X-22

Its real-life counterpart

I couldn't find a cockpit in KSP that looks like the one in the above image... also I almost never see "square" fuselage parts...

The next one is based on the Doak VZ-4

This one is easier to control than the X-22.

The VZ-4 in real life.
