This was a record braking hot rod, not meant to be distributed to a larger community.

the Second is a layout of Fritz, so my thoughts were the following;

getting the vertical stabs back on the wing instead of behind it, for sure it would never compete with an Facet Opal in therms of speed, but for sure would be a nifty little flyer fitting almost into a garage.

the whole thing built with a thick Fauvel F4 Wing Airfoil.

A straight wing, no tapered wing tips, like the red bird.

An easy to fly one piece aircraft

this would be a FritzPlank

what do you think?
