While experimenting with the previous prototype, I discovered that there was some rather... Unnecessary drag issues going on. To counter this, I had an entire section from each side removed in order to counter this at the cost of more fuel, but with an enlongated fuselage the fuel should be sufficiant for more stable long distance flights. Take off instructions are the same as before; VTOL down 50% and throttle up 100%. Landing takes practice and a steady hand (and not going over 200 mph), but it IS possible. Whilst flying straight, this baby can hit 850 mph on it's own.
