Auto Credit Based on SemedianIndustries's Glider challange

My somewhat gull wing glider entry for the contest. You can get it down to about 28 mph without stalling but its fun to cruise around at about 35-40ish. It also has a small tendency to veer off to the right but a little bit of rudder correction fixes it. Have fun!

    Excellent design. Great job. Well thought through and I do love the wing setup. Meets and beats the criteria by a wide margin.
