The Harriers thrusters on the nose, tail and wing tips can only compensate fully for angles of 10 degres or less pitch or roll. any more than that and you may end up dead. The GR1 was not powerfull enough to achieve a vertical take off while carrying a payload. Short take off is easly achieved by using 45 degrees vector. For vertical takeoff without external payload, select 80-85 degrees vector and apply throttle gently. Vector angles of 90-100 degres will enduce reverse flight.
