106 TrasdLooks like I have enough points to rate now! As of this post, this vehicle is the current leader of my glider contest (http://www.reddit.com/r/SimplePlanes/comments/306621/how_slow_can_you_go/) more than doubling my longest glide-time (and I thought I was being so meticulous)! Nice design, it's taught me a lot. Thanks.9.7 years ago
