Really stable for a flying wing, but manuverability is not the best. ~350mph crusing speed and red for your crashing pleasure. (No guns, as it is a sport model) BTW I know it's not 100% correct, the Ho 229 V3 was more of a template for this design.

Good advice, I'l try that on my next design!
Nice looking flying wing man. Some hidden vertical stabilizers in the body would help with the yaw wiggle.

Thanks! It took a large about of research and trial and error.
Flies very well for something that is basically one big wing
