This is a prototype, don't expect it to be flawless. I'm doing this as a concept plane to test the effects of overlapping engines to see if the plane would go slower or faster if the engines were more separated. Try it! (This aircraft does not have much fuel, only 231 gallons split between two 950 HP engines and one 1000 HP engine. Have fun!
