VTOL powered, but not designed to be a VTOL plane, extra weird wings and the most aerodynamical aircraft of the Semedian Industries, behold: the first plane designed to glide forwards and backwards. While you fly backwards the roll is inverted. Please rate this plane, it toke me a lot of work.

31.5k SemedianIndustries@hypnotoad actualy this plane started by being a regular glider that had a too responsive pitch. It pitched up too quickly and stalled. I was still pulling the controls as it was going forwards and the plane started to level up and flying backwards! Because it was propeller powered it couldn't get any power to fly backwards, so I made it VTOL powered. And that's the history of this plane.9.6 years ago
