An aircraft with four rotors, a fixed wing, and an adjustable v-tail to allow for both vertical take-off and landing and the capability to fly in straight and level flight. The angle of each rotor and engine, with respect to the airfoil surfaces to which they are attached, is adjustable, allowing for thrust to be directed either downwards, allowing the craft to hover, or backwards, allowing the aircraft to travel horizontally while lift is provided and controlled by the wing and v-tail.
