If it is one design, performance can take a back seat (think about that

)...if you are trying to get more involved in combat, it will be more important that it be pilot friendly to someone who just soloed and wants to try combat...than it be a high performance ship modeled after what the pros fly. It needs to be able to be built with a bottle of CA and a screwdriver at a max...just a screwdriver would be better. It needs to fly with whatever engines guys have lying around. It also needs to be cheap or free, or best case scenerio, included in the contest entry fee, and built at the field the morning of the contest. I do believe it is possible.
