Saw this plane on a book cover and decided i'd build it. Max speed about 130MPH in level flight and can be used as a glider in a limited capacity. Nothing special, just nice to fly.

    @NexusGaming Yeah I looked it up, if I had known it was a real aircraft I would have built it more to the actual specifications, I just built a rough estimate of the small picture i saw on a book, lol

    @TheGamerPro I'm already working on a fixed version. The real one is called the Rutan Voyager

    @NexusGaming Lmao, I didn't even know it was a real plane. I made a beefier push-pull version

    @TheGamerPro Still though, the original only had 110 hp propeller engines and was slightly smaller

    @NexusGaming I originally built it as a push-pull because that's the way it looked on the cover but I wanted to cut down drag and just give it style points for the contra-rotating props i guess. As for the engines I wanted it to be very fuel efficient so I used low power/low consumption props.

    Great job, just needs a larger prop, plus a front propeller and maybe some other improvements. I'll be happy to do it for you
