That seems...dangerous
I can imagine the pilot fighting the control to bring it back under control only to have it all ripped out of his hands as hes fire involuntarily out the bay windows.

Just watched an interesting little video speculating that when the aircraft touched down, the vanes over the lift fan closed to prevent it from lifting off again, but because it bounced the main engine thought it was still flying so throttled up automatically.

Mental health took a blow as i was fighting with my girlfriend at the same time. And then to top it ...

3D printed parts??? Nice ! Right??!! It's the only way I would've started one of these.
