Uh oh! now my foil is obsolete. And can you see the flood of twin-tippies starting to foil? This is not good.

I'd like to see him go a little faster. See how that thing handles.

Probably can't due to drag. Smile

So impossible design? Just no way to match the performance of a single front wing with a stabilizer?

I can see that you would have to get rid of the anhedral on the wings and just use a vertical stabilizer.

Again, anyone vote that this design will never be a match for a single front wing?
