This is my entry into the 'Bandit Run' Tournament. I have tried to perfect its handling, and I would have given it a higher top speed, but the computer took too long to respond, or did not respond correctly (in the right direction) when testing around the Bandit Run course.
The design is very simple, to save weight, and to reduce air resistance, so the handling improves.
I have tested it on most of the courses (the computer in control), and it has completed all of the ones I have tested, except the Indy Air Race course, where you will need an exceptionally handling aircraft, or a very slow one to complete the course.
