Auto Credit Based on Garuda1ITalisman's Cyclone V2

I improved upon this plane because, like with the VTOL, I saw potential. Refitted, rebalanced, drag reduced. Check out the original by @Garuda1.

    Simpleplanes has problems with certain video cards in some device's so that's why every single screenshot I take is blacked out. I'm pretty sure the reason why I don't have higher ratings is because of that. People see the black picture and kind of turn away from it without actually checking the plane out. But, in this case I guess it actually drew someone towards it!

    @Garuda1 Thanks! I was actually drawn to yours by the blacked out images, but your description made me consider flying it, and I was surprised how much I liked it. I'm surprised your ratings aren't higher.

    I love it! Handles better than the original and looks and feels like a better plane. The drag reduction and the rebalancing created a smoother, more stable plane. Great job!
