This light sprinting plane features 2 five-rotor coaxial propeller engines for a total of 10 props. The high-speed, low-drag design allows it to accelerate quickly, and maintain a high top speed of around 730 mph. Though this propeller plane is able to reach transonic velocities, it isn't incredibly maneuverable, and requires wide arcs to make turns, so it isn't suited for racing. It's pretty stable though, and is best for crossing distances quickly without spending too much fuel to do so.
