It is pretty fast. It would go +Mach 2 but but then I added my first panels to the top wings and it slowed it down. The panels actually help the wobbling some. I didn't panel the bottem wings because it slowed it down too much.

    @AviownCorp Sure, I wasn't planning on doing anything else with it. It is fast enough for me.

    @SteadfastContracting can you wait for me to test it tomorrow again?

    @AviownCorp Ok. It became more of a test with panels than anything else towards the end.

    @SteadfastContracting ok as you wish. I am not in pc now to test and modify the design.

    @AviownCorp No, because those are there to spread the high-speed stress out among the extra area. They are necessary to the design.
