The Bandit Run race is going to happen soon. For this race I decided that if anything was aloud, I would have to build an exceptional aircraft. Meet the F-25 "Yellow Jacket". This plane was designed on four basic principals; weight, speed, manuverability, and balance. For the weight factor, I decided to make a single engined, basic shape. This would ensure that no complicated wings or surfaces would give extra weight. After this, I layered wings to give lots of lift, and in turn, manueverability. The speed factor comes from the huge engine in the rear. Finaly, the balance is made possible from fuel distribution, making small trajectory vectors possible. I hope this aircraft is enough to get me far into the competion, and maybe it will win. As for you peeps- good luck... Enjoy!
