The tyranny of the cylindrical fuselage is over. Now is the era of the squiggly, twisty, bean sprout shaped fuselage. This obviously superior design will soon replace all others... Shut up! It totally will! Give it full power on takeoff. After it passes 50 mph move the VTOL down to the bottom to extend the wings. Then pull up gently. You'll see. Armed war version to come...

I did a few times. Tricky but doable. @Thenumber171
Interesting design, you should try landing it though.
wtf awesome
Thanks! I picture the poor pilot gazing up to the cockpit thirty feet up. Maybe they could use one of those thick high school type climbing ropes... Better get some installed ASAP. @ThomasRoderick
Thanks! @LordGardevoirX
Thank you! I like start with an insane shape and then see if I can make it fly. @Jamesonastick105

I think I've used the name scorpion few too many times already. Thanks! @CenturiVonKikie
It's a miracle you didn't call it the scorpion. Great job!
Amazing! Very cool! Looks like something you would find in Star Wars.
interesting
SLEEK!
Of course, the reason that cylindrical fuselages dominate is due to their simplicity and practicality. Nonetheless, it is interesting to verge away from standards and experiment with unconventional shapes like this 😋
