neurotex, that tailless stagger wing looks sweet. it would be interesting to see how it would perform with the AA parts, not to mention looking pretty cool going through the air. the design might aid in your x-wing, though yours might work out a lot better than mine did, mine was overweight and too small, your design looks a bit more fitting.

your idea for trimming the blue angel should work, how big are you thinking of going?

The stagger wing would make a good indoor flyer especially with s&t wings.

I would be guessing about a 5" wing span for each Blue Angel. That would be
all trial & error.

The plane in the pic flew straight but when I hit the turns it dived bombed to
the ground. Now I've cut off the canard, trimmed the tail fins an inch and added
a rear stab across the top of em. It's really quick and she turns good but now
I've lost my lift... especially in the turns. Now I'm adding an angled tail ramp-
but it's snowing.
