@JShay I know - really fun. Why does the land speed challenge have to stop at the end of the runway :-)
@ahappyape nice! You got that so perfectly balanced, it flies perfectly straight after it launches off the end of the runway. And excellent choice for paint scheme 😏

Had a play. Launch on south runway and just watch :-D
Managed to get it down to 2154 drag. No real difference in speed though!
