This was my first attempt at a plank-style flying wing. As you can see, I put much more thought into the design than the model name! Oh well, it was a real sweetheart in the air. It was basically a powered glider, but still had enough pep for some sloppy rudder and elevator aerobatics. The best part of flying was getting up to altitude, then gliding around after the engine quit.
