These are the weirdest I have flown by far. They are for the AIAA Design, Build, Fly contest. To simpliy the rules you basically want to be able to carry a 5 and 3 pound payload with the lightest weight and shortest wingspan you can.

Hey DD... Yes, it flys great. I have to post a promo video so you can see it in action. I put it on the backburner until next Halloween Also, I built it to hover so it resembles a real ghost ha ha ha. Thanks.
