    Very cool design. A little slow and wobbly on the controls, but I understand how difficult it would have been to make it fly as well as it looks. Great job!

    @JShay Yea I know what you mean, I was very surprised how this one stays as it does. Really was expecting either a massive nose down due to the weight of the engines, or a terrible pitch up, given the centre of thrust; but neither! Very cool. I will have to play around with this idea and see what I can make, won't be as balanced as this I can almost guarantee

    @hypnotoad Thank you! I'm quite surprised myself at how well this one balanced out. I can't imagine what you could come up with based on this style!

    Really surprised me. I have never played around with having the COT at the front, always worried me, but this is great! You know by my planes that I think the style of this one is perfect, totally what I like and I think you did a good job making this maneuverable with the only Control surfaces you gave yourself. Really good work dude

    It doesn't really do much but go forward... and you can't take off/ land with it. Interesting design though
