Auto Credit Based on Halfstrike's MAKE THIS FLY!!! Challenge

This is for a challenge to get an awkwardly shaped and loaded block to fly. I decided to mirror it to make the load more symmetrical, then added to hollow front to improve drag at minimal weight. This can take off & land reasonably well. Handling is a bit mushy and wobbly, but you can still do aileron rolls and vertical loops if you want to.
