Original wings were flexible and they would change shape based on how quickly you were traveling, also when you started to take a turn the wings would actually Flex to allow you to turn at a tighter angle of attack, it didn’t work out because they figured out no human could possibly survive the Gs that were involved. It was an insane amount, I want to say 14 G’s
