is that weird Yak#2 steam-powered ? - I see a chimney  :blink: ;D
you may as well all give up -- the truth is much stranger than fiction.

I'm not sick ... just a little unwell.

Or an autogyro and that's the rotor mast.

We don't just embrace insanity here.  We feel it up, french kiss it and then buy it a drink.

Upturned wingtips, large mast?  I'd also suggest an autogyro.  A fighter Rotodyne?

An Autogyro is one option but I am not sure? other ideas were under consideration so wait and see. Some more concepts started, Joe really needs to stop sniffing that liquid glue lol

The X-wing kinda reminds me of something from Crimson Skies.

Strange you say that, need to dig "Crimson Skies" out and try to finish playing it one day.

threw together another one over lunch today, a bit more pedestrian this time, standard kit with some bits added to make a 'tankbuster' with added vertical fins on the tailplane and a few bumps to cover the breech  :blink:

hmm, a vg. X.5 equivialent sounds a fun idea, especially with swinging wings, poss a MiG.9 as a basis? or a Yak.23?  :wacko:
