    @dturner ok have posted a successor based on my suggestions to save you the time, you should get bonus points for this, and I hope you like it dude. As said I didn't want to mess with the looks too much to stay true to yours. See what you think. All the best

    @dturner it's a tough one to improve. for me they would only be slight. Given this thing handles impressively well I would suggest you could chuck a whole lot more power at it and it would be really fun to fly around fast, but I guess that would take it well away from the origional. That said, and I know this sounds silly, but giving it less pitch might be good for others. I managed to stall this quite easily, but recovered it fine. I would think that's a combination of the limited power it has and it's ability to pitch so sharply. I very much like the design look, so keep to that, perhaps just play around with the design and see what else you can do. I'll save a copy for myself and see if I can make anything out of it. Keep at it either way buddy.

    Great concept d, very nice, I had a lot of fun flying this around, it's so serene, and responds well. Took me a while to master it mind you, but each plane is different, so I will put any issues down to my skill ot your design. Well done sir.
