We're creative about the landing gear.... sometimes we just leave them off and slide in on the wingtips. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] With the planes built from corrogated plastic sign material... you won't hurt a thing this way.

The "Star Wars" X-wing has appx 30 to 40 deg between the wings... or about 15 to 20 deg off horizontal wings. If the fuselage could be made light enough... then a flyable R/C model would work out operating similarly to a flying wing. In the late 1970's or early 1980's someone built a X-Wing by adding a clear plastic (lexan) canard near the nose. It worked Ok, but was somewhat unstable (inadequate canard surface and no rudder... it had problems getting out of spins.)

The more you think of trying to do... the more you find has already been done. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
