My first real experiment with V-Tail designs, the theory is that less stabilisers=less drag=more speed. Unfortunately, this has reduced yaw to near uselessness (Doubling up the control surfaces was adversly affecting flight stability when they were in use). It's also worthy to note that the plane tends to wobble a bit when using keyboard controls or you don't pitch gradually enough, so be a little careful about that. I made a couple of other tweaks ove the aircraft, but nothing really noteworthy. Pylons (Now coming armed) are on 1-4.
