Default RE: Suggestion for moderators

thrust to weight ratio much more than one together with large drag and you should only be concerned that center of drag is behind from the center of mass.

Anyway- this kind of planes are extremes and the wings lose their meaning- wing is supposed to create lift, with vectored thrust it becomes just a control surface and may be it should not be called wing anymore.

Parashute and dart arrow might be closer to your planes in the manner they move through the air than a regular glider is.
