  • Maybe you should put the smaller wing in the back and stretch out the body a little, that way you'll get more stability. Oh wait, that's what they did 108 years ago when the Wright Flyer became the first plane to fly, AND CRASH, at Kittyhawk, North Carolina. I'm sorry, but your invention is a Century out of date.

  • @unambitious Personally, I wouldn't trust an aircraft named the "Walrus."

  • maybe he was deliberately maneuvering the plane that way for test purposes. Did look sketchy though...

  • scary little mankiller some lessons dont need to be relearned.lower canards usually crash.thats why burt rutan switched to canard mainwing in the same plane.a little research and this thing would not have been built.

  • That was scary as hell

  • Very interesting plane. I hope they improve it's stabilty. Could be a great new design.

  • OMG VERY UNSTABLE PLANE

  • What a unique little aircraft.
