4. thanks for posting. some thoughts. so, does, rprv, stand for 'remotely piloted'. i Certainly hope that is what it means. if so, then, WHY is there a COCKPIT-shaped lump, at the forward fuselage. this non-conforming design makes EXCESSIVE USE of Drag. (upper and lower) drag at the wingtips. drag at the vert-stabs. drag at the lg pods and aft ventral FINS. aft ventral fins are sometimes called vortex generators. unfortunately, when used on ANY SMALL (low-re#) airframe, they do Not work; and they should be called, DRAG makers. and drag FORWARD, at the Over-large, DIHEDRAL CANARD. it's all just weirdness. cheers googletranslate
