Default Need help

I have been playing around with Visio again, and came up with another new one I am going to build. It will use a rear exhaust 61 with pipe running under the canopy.

I need help coming up with a name for it. Right now I am calling it the BPAMk1 (Ballistic Pattern Airplane) LOL. This seems kind of lame to me so help me out with some names guys.

I think the square angular looks prompt the name of R2D2. It would need a nose gear though!

I am still learning to use Visio, I am having a little bit af a hard time with the curves. LOL

It will end up being rounded off like the Venom was.

Being that you are at it again and we know how fast you can go
from the building table to first flight, I thought of two possible names

Keine Zeit - Germany for No Time. Because you will have it in the air
in no time.

or how about " Quick Draw ", Baba Looie? For the same reson as above

I kind of like quick draw.

But it will be a little bit, I still need to finish the second and third Venom airframes.

I decided to change it slightly. I added retracts and changed the canopy.

Or, Umwandlung.

Whoa! I really like the new look a lot. The change seems to balance out the overall profile.

The canopy looks sort of Escape-ish, but the fin is a bit DB-ish.

I think 8178 would like Dreiradflugzeug.

Looks like a mix of Escape and UFO, I like the look also.
I like names "Fortschritt" and "Umwandlung" but how
about "No Escape" ?

It has the wing from a Deception and the Stab from a UFO. Now that you mention it the vertical fin does kind of resemble the UFO, that part wasn't intentional. LOL

I kind of like No Escape too.
