I decided to see how small I could make a plane, while maintaining the ability to fly. This is a bi-plane I made with that idea, and it turned out quite stable. It is not very agile, and pitches quite slow, but makes for a good casual cruiser. It rests around 180-220mph on average. And climbs best when pitched at, or under 20 degrees. For takeoff, max its throttle, and simply hold full pitch back when crossing the end of the runway. It will fly fine as long as you don't pitch too steep (20° or less typically works best) otherwise you will begin to lose speed, and even stall if not careful. Have fun:)
