Default Flying wing design proves to be efficient

HEllo everyone. I am obsessed with flying wings at this point. The first couple of pics are the flying wing i built yesterday evening, and- eat this dave powers!!!- FLEW WITHOUT A TAIL WITH NO GYRO!!!!!!, i took the two vertical tails off and it flew under very good control.

the tiny wing with a penny is a new design that has a 6.2/25 L/D ratio. ( i checked), also, three inches away from the tip. it has a 13 degree washout, technically i think they are blended winglets

if you want to test out the glider here are the specs:
Wing Span: 16.5inches.
Main Chord: 8.25 inches
Tip Chord: 4 and .125

i am planning on taking the EDF out of this other wing and slapping it into the new design!!!!.

what do you think Guys??
