It struck me that another way to interpret the CRi Cri with its twin electric motors is to facilitate electric motor propulsion via Tailplane tip motors?

Ok this requires heavy duty cables to this location from the ESC/bats in the nose, but would this kind of thing not be viable?

Maybe for a staggered biplane that is quite short coupled in pitch (ie. with lifting fus, and short overall length)?

Any comments?
