Description
Short animation demonstrating the wing mobility. Download for larger size.I still need to design an airflow system through the wing so that when the wings turn they wouldn't produce massive drag.

I think another issue you may have is that when the wings begin to fold in they will cause the craft to pitch or roll as well.... basically the wing becomes a giant rudder, flap, aileron, etc. I suggest that the wing should skin should retract across the entire surface before folding up, that way air can pass thru the wing rather then the wing becoming a sail.

Yeah, that's what I meant when I said I needed to design an airflow system. This ship would tear itself apart otherwise.
