neurotex;

It sure looks good.

Out this morning with it and had a couple of good flights. I believe I've
figured out the basics of getting this type of plane to fly but there's still
some quirkyness to them I don't understand.
Adjusting the canard neck all the way up and toward the wing I can get
it to almost hover with no stalling. Adusting the neck straight out and forward
the plane is faster. Adusting the canard itself makes it climb and dive.
Still a bit unstable even after adding winglets but you can ease into turns.

If I had a way of controling the adjustable fuselage during flight I would
have one crazy stunt flyer.
The neck is broke now so (wicked nose dive) I'm going to build another
plane. Lot'a fun this one was!
