50.4k Stingray@Zing2000 @hypnotoad Yes, tailess has been feasible yet few attempt it. I got a tailess ( ugly but efficient) Hi-Altitude Airbike model to pass 1200 mph as it passes 30,000 feet yesterday. I posted it, if you wish to see and test a comparison to this beautiful model.9.7 years ago

38.8k hypnotoadAmazing! Soooooo true to the origional it's crazy. Can't believe you got away with that tail! If I could give you 10 stars I would mate, this is some next level. ...... I even took the £1.50 data charge just to download and rate this ( out and about on my phone and no wifi and had to add data to plan) well worth it. I didn't think this design would be stable at all. Was confident it would fly, but like a slug, this though is great! Having read up on the origional, this was unmanned and bride by wire, and computers continually keeping it level as it's design is inherently unstable on almost all axis. Nicely done sir!9.7 years ago
