replica (sort of, I know they don't have vertical stabilizers but this needed em) of a hang glider with a dude flying it. 1 to detach lift engines. glides great if a bit nose heavy but imho that's a ok for gliders. Please feel free to repaint the retractable undercarriage if I causes offence. I thought it was chuffing hilarious. tried to make a tug but got nowhere, let me know if u make one. *please rate, comment and check out my other contraptions. thank you*

I’m able to reach ~1400 MPH with XML modded Blasto BFE150s before this thing vibrates like crazy and explodes

@striker I'm sorry hun if u don't like it. It's a joke. Supposed to be light hearted. If u don't like it feel free to modify it yourself but I'm gonna keep giggling every time I lower the undercarriage

@lightning yea I know, but I do enjoy the challenge or reaching altitude first. To use a spawn location seems like cheating. But I do use that method to test my gliders

Hey you can save locations so fly very high in another plane then hit pause and save location...then just spawn up there in the hang glider....

Creative and fun! On a side note, you might be able to improve the pitching ability of a few of your planes by dividing the wings into multiple lateral segments coming off of the fuselage. The force from the control surface acts at the COL of the section of wing that the CS is on so, with those large single wings, you have the force pushing right next to the or in front of the COM (it's why some of your pitch surfaces have to be inverted even when they're in the rear of the plane)

That's very clever. When retracting the landing gear it looks like the beans are above the frank.

I stuck it there without thought to begin with. It was only when I came to paint it I thought...........Looks like his junk. And so pink it had to be painted. Is it odd in flight I keep retracting and deploying the gear, just to watch his winky disappear and reappear.
