Not good, the only advantage is storage compactness but disadvantage is transitions can turn out to be problematic. You can remove the wings for compactness instead and transition only in pitch axis for better reliability.I find this concept a great idea that could be implemented on larger aircraft if stable enough.

Transition in 2 axes doubles the risk of complications and failure. Too much pain for no remarkable gain."transitions can turn out to be problematic"
Hence the "if stable enough" part.
"You can remove the wings for compactness"
Takes a lot longer though.
