Boeing-X Sensor-Y (finished part 2 page 5+5, part1 page3)

Almost looks like a racing car! A little too flat I suppose.

[Tophe]

Yes, the fuselage can be very flat because the RW source (Boeing UAV without cockpit) has no human being to accommodate, just electronics, flat! But my craziness makes it a piloted aircraft, whif.
I have sanded again, then added putty again:

An electronic card, like a sheet of paper, could be either horizontal (flat yes) or vertical... but on an aircraft, needing lift, the natural choice is horizontal yes.

I will also have to "cut" away the fins, and this will be a hard work, with saw probably (and mask against dust):

I succeeded in cutting them:

And I made another sanding of the "fuselage":

I think I will not add the P-51 wing (the canopy is enough), I am rather satisfied with this aspect:

Hehehe, I LOVE it, but what does it use to move?

Or is it a glider?

[ericr]

it moves by the force if inspiration 

[Tophe]

Yes! Inspiration and expiration, providing brain waves.
(This is secret now, officially it will be discovered in 2028, with Nobel Prize 2037...)

The S-51Z Twin-Flatstang (flatstang zwilling for intended export) was the first and last airplane with two pilots and being powered by mental force.
Alas, it stalled then crashed when disagreement occurred between pilots about the direction to take

You may ask: what happened of the P-51 wing, discarded going back from S-51D' back to S-51D? Ahem, not gone to garbage but fuel tanks helped to build the two-seat flying wing W-51D:

Of course, there was a twin version of the W-51D:
