Too bad most of the R\C scale ships only do laps! They are just bigger.

Love the B-17. Too bad it doesn't seem to be able to do anything but laps! And a heck of a lot of them!
Yes it is too bad but that is all I would expect from a scale bomber of this size in a control line set up. Still, all four engines going at once is quite impressive don't you think?
Now, how about that canard? It too only does laps but I think it could do better by having a more rearward CG. I can only guess how much the front canard is supporting the load in this particular plane. I think the CG should be right at the LE of the main or rear wing but something tells me that this plane does not balance there as the engine sits well ahead of that LE.
Thoughts?
Any ides of the span of this plane or its overall length?
