No Control Surface Challenge

105k RailfanEthan  8.5 years ago

Simple challenge due on the 25th. Make an airplane without surface controls on the wings, so something similar to this. Be a genius, I don't care if the whole thing is VTOL. Just no control surfaces. Will be judged on looks, ability to move, creativity, and of course, reliabilty. Reliabilty is can it land, take off, and do useful things? What are those things? Ask yourself that.


Scoring!

    No control surfaces*.
    Flaps are only the things that go down from the wings to assist in takeoff and landing.
    Also, does it have to be a new creation, or can it be something I've already made?
