This is another shot at annular wingform. Despite it's odd shape it flies quite well.
I used more and smaller wings I to get wings' outer line more circular. The price is greater wing flex and smaller fuel capacity than in the original Black Hole.
I got idea for it's colour scheme and name from a white beam I used as a ruler for wing shape.
The usual controls.

@tsampoy thanks for upvote.
True, with black-red-yellow colour scheme it could be made to look like Sauron's Eye. I'm quite happy with wings' outer line but inner line is bad. It would take wings that can connect both from the sides and also front and aft.
It's a little bit circular. It kind of looks like an eye! :D
