This is my replica of the rutan voyager which was the first plane to circumnavigate the globe nonstop without refueling. This version should be able to go island to island about 25(maybe more!) times without stopping, so she's definately an endurance plane! Thanks, hope you guys enjoy!

this seems to fly great, though i did increase the fuel capacity and added some ballast in the front due the the fuel load throwing the balance off. Sometime I may test the maximum extended range to see how long it can stay airborne,
@kimo, i didn't either, two of those island to island runs took like 10 minutes
Really cool
Well done! Cool Project, but I won't test the max range;-))
