RPM Hydrofoil Mk1

Auto Credit Based on mallthus's Paddlewheeler

This is my first working hydrofoil in Simple Planes. Take it to full throttle then let the vanes go to work without input. The vessel will go on plane at about 160 mph. Use pitch controls to raise or lower. The rudders are controlled using yaw control.
