I attempted to make a cool looking contra-rotating superprop that goes pretty fast (>700 mph i think)

Ok! Thanks for the feedback :D (this is my first ever post so I still have some learning to do.) I made it go super fast (like I said ~700 mph) and of course this is very unrealistic but any aircraft going near that speed without sweep IRL would suffer from wing flutter or the wing would just snap off entirely. Also, thank you so much for trying out my plane and giving feedback :D
Looks very decent. Only things I want are that the wings should be straight instead of swept back (assuming prop planes cannot go fast enough), the base of the wings and fins should be thicker, and the propeller hub should be visibly separated instead of being attached to the hull (like putting a small gap between the fuselage and the hub).
