An old design I made. Fun to fly.

You can actually see the WINGS BEND when pulling hard! The price to pay is that they break easily, avoid to max pitch and max roll at the same time.

    Haha I swear I've designed and name this more than one month ago, I don't want to upset ImFauxReal! And I save the risky wings because I really like to see them bend when pulling on my elevators

    Hah nice. Giving ImFauxReal some competition for The Bat title! Flies real nice aside from the occasional catastrophic failure. Try making some sections of the wings structural wings instead of primary. It might solve the whole wings falling off problem.

    Very cool design! Not the most practical machine, but definitely beautiful. Great build
