Auto Credit Based on SemedianIndustries's Glider challange
my entry to SemedolasPT glider challenge. It should be capable of achieving 70MPH level flight at sea level. can get up and switch off the engines. should glide for a fair way. If you just want to fly around its pretty good for that too. though the nose up I built into this becomes more profound at higher speeds. All the best

38.8k hypnotoad@SemedolasPT hey dude. Yea. I did actually make a better performing glider but it looked too much like a glider, if you know what I mean. So this was the best spikey glider I could make, didn't want to just wack massive wings on so kept scaling it down until it just about glided. Thanks for the rating and comment dude9.6 years ago

38.8k hypnotoad@ZFM99 ah dude you gotta keep going with it. Really know your going to be a deamon when you get going. Just make planes for you to enjoy. Given you the uber pilot everyone else will appreciate them aswell mate. Don't worry about the looks at first, get a feel for how you want it to fly and then you can apply that method or design into anything you want. That's what I do mate.9.6 years ago

38.8k hypnotoad@JacobHardy64 hey dude. Thanks for the rating, much obliged! I'm glad you could recover it ok, in my opinion it's not the easiest thing to fly, even with the low speed. All the best9.6 years ago

38.8k hypnotoad@ZFM99 Heya buddy. Thanks mate. I dunno I know it's not a true glider for sure. I recon I could make an ugly but functional one more traditional, but I just didn't want that. As always mate. You are too good to me. Thanks.9.6 years ago
