Auto Credit Based on GJW14's Glider Challenge

One of my best gliders. You can start in the air or on the ground. Throttle to 100%, wait until you run out of fuel. Then activate the first activator. I added on boosters just for fun, you can get rid of those. But if you want to use them for longer gliding periods, just activate activators 2-6 in that order. This glider seems as if it can glide forever, and I mean forever. Have fun! (Btw, the reason I said you can get rid of them, I mean that so you can get the full gliding experience, also, I suggest taking everything extra off, for the fullest gliding experience)

    When I landed, the only problems were that I was going too fast and the rudder being inverted but it didn't explode

    @grantflys I just added the engine for fun. And yes, this is a repost. So just take the cart off and start in the air
