Auto Credit Based on StrykrIV's Eidolon Dreamchaser (Glider)
Fixed some minor flight issues compared to my previous design. Again, use detacher 1 to get rid of engines + fuel and begin gliding. Please rate or comment if you download.

38.8k hypnotoad@StrykrIV no I think, though I can't be sure; that's it's actually helpful on this one. I can see that if there was a major nose up it would begin to be a pain, but given you have gotten this one down to a usable level I recon it's actually contributing to it, given the slight working to point down increases speed. There is a real art to gliders mate, and you cracked this one. I had real trouble balancing the things I tried to make, so appreciate what you have done here.10.0 years ago

5,138 StrykrIV@hypnotoad yes the main problem I was having with the old design was the nose up. It's slightly lower on this one.10.0 years ago

38.8k hypnotoadWell done chap. I have been intending to build a glider for a while now. This is excellent! You clearly put a fair bit of wok in to get it that balanced, forgivable slight nose up as this aids gliding, and must have been a swine to get like that given the surface area you were working with. Really like your style sir.10.0 years ago
