Yeah, and a lot of that is due to the wing design, I think. Delta wings present some challenges.
@atgxtg I did a version with two small jets in the rear wheel pods, it wasn't any faster and had a few balance issues, actually. Surprising just how much the props do.
Nice pusher prop. Handles well. Has possiblities.
