This was going to be my entry to the tournament, but I lost hope in it.
I spent around 2 days perfecting this beauty for the it (that's why I didn't upload yesterday), until I couldn't shave off anymore seconds from 1:35 without it crashing.
As always, hope you enjoy!

(P.S. Is this considered a Hypnoplane? Or a new style?)

@PinoyCraftG thanks!
Very stable, very fast, and very beautiful. Luv it :)
@BRuthles
@Flightsonic Hmm, lift should stay equal when they are all flat bottom. Weird.
@BRuthless They're all Flat bottom
@PhilipTarpley Thanks again!
@Flightsonic Good point regarding trim. Excellent design :)
@Flightsonic You probably have semi-symmetric or flat-bottom wings somewhere in the front? They gain lift from speed. So at higher speed, the lift in the front will become higher.
It's a hypnoplane
Np! Flies beautifully @Flightsonic
@BaconAircrafts Thanks as well!
@Flightsonic welcome
@PhilipTarpley @AviownCorp @Ironghost Thanks!
@PhilipTarpley That's why you guys put trim! :D Before, it kept pitching down no matter what, then it pitches up now, I have no clue why
Handling doesn't get much better than this aside from the tendency to pull up at max throttle.
@BRuthless Really? Probably due to drag
@Flightsonic My design with VTOL and J50 beats my design with one or two BFE300. :D
@BRuthless I probably needed to use the BFE300 instead of the '150 and VTOL
Couldn't get lower than 1:35? That's sad, it looks so great. My designs started at 1:15. I think going below 1:10 comes with too much risk in crashing, but I'm still testing.
It's more Hypno than a plane I'm working on and I thought it was kinda Hypno styled.
@JMicah4 @Liquidfox Thanks!
@KnightOfAraluen @Solarisaircraft @BaconEggs Thanks guys!
I remember when I first got SP, I was so confused at this style. Now it seems kind of normal to have weird planes. Nice job
First!
Woah!
