Maybe the third time is the charm. I figured how to make an annular wing that is (kinda) round on both inner and outer edge. Idea for eye-like paint job came from @tsampoy so kudos to him/her. It flies ok but needs lots of trim up to keep nose from dropping.
The usual controls, Trim for pitch trim.

@tsampoy thanks! The funny thing is, the more circular it gets, the worse it flies.
btw thanks for the idea for paint job. I tried Sauron's Eye but it was way too lame without serious decoration, which I don't have the skill. So I settled for more conventional eye.
Now that's circular!
Thanks @Jukkelus
@alexchub1 thanks! Btw I just followed you. Nice work you got :-)
