    Detail is in the eye of the beholder, I guess. Reference the below, following link: not a glider, but a slightly-tweaked SimplePlane with internal thrust, that outraces all other challengers on the Daredevil race. The paint job is a disguise. Performing Daredevil at 56 seconds like clockwork is the real design.

    Thx for the vote! When I get my Windows hardware platform, and add neat GUI things like fine tuner, I would hope to add more detail in the future. This is an iPhone 7 build, I just build these because the results can be a riot to fly within Jundroo. @EternalDarkness

    Not bad, but it could use some more details.
