  • Beautiful. Wonderful job. A very nice flier.

  • @unkydon Thanks very much!

  • It looks more like it gliding in the wind than flying using it's propellors

  • @samir9382 That's because as clearly stated... it's a glider!

  • At first I thought it was a ducted fan model... But now I see that it is a home built glider... Very nice plane, looks like a nice place to fly... How are the break away engines held on with magnets or with pressure? That thing would be awesome with even just 2 ducted fans on the inside engine housings... I am impressed very nice model

  • @1Masterofwar Thanks for the comments! The aircraft has knock off engine pylons held on with friction AND magnets! It's designed to accept 4 ducted fans and one can get undercarriage as well for a rolling takeoff and landing when powered.
