Thanks for the clairification on the wing. Interesting. It was a late night reading session. My laptop is in crash mode. Had to get everything backed up before I reformat it.

A reverse flying wing? Hmmmmm....... genetically altering a sperm whale to fly might be easier. Flying wings have always been touchy in the modeling world and the real one. I've seen a few nice ones even at the AA level. Horten. But a reverse one? I'm sure it can be done, but I bet its a handful to fly at least. 2 channels doesnt leave much room for corrections.

Neurotexs's cananrd comes to mind. A very well designed plane, tried so many unique things to get it going only to find a new characteristic to deal with. If he had 3 channels the stalling could have been compensated for with a single bump of the 3rd channel.

Just my opinion,

One of those things that would make a good long winter project.
