Hello there! Thank you for checking out this plane! This is my first flying wing type design, and it's better than expected. It started as a combination of my old style and one I saw AGES ago, I don't quite remember who originaly uploaded the craft that inspired this. Anyways, It's a prety nice plane. It takes off at around 400 mph (640 kph), and cruises at around 600 mph (960 kph). Pitch isn't great, but roll is amazing. Unfortunatly, it's rather short range... It can't even get from one island to another. Infinite fuel variant comming soon!! Honestly, I don't know if I will ever bring it out of the Prototype phase, as I feel it will require a major redesign to work well.
