    I haven't watched an FT video in a while. For a bit, it seemed like some of the "charm" was gone and you kinda started just pumping out videos. But this one, this one has all the original goofiness and playful fun that I loved back in the day. Please keep doing these funny, off the wall builds! The last couple videos have been fantastic. I have so much respect for you folks, you've really done this hobby a major service just by being yourselves. Thank you Josh and team!

    It basically is an inverted channel wing plane, the propellers create an high pressure zone over the wing that reduces lifting. Moving them on the back would change that zone to a low pressure one, that would increase lift. Still great project anyway!

    A single wheel interaction with the wind is the magnus effect. If you reverse the wheel direction, it will produce lift. Especially with the amount of surface tension. Maybe use a trike (to prevent wheel / wheel interactions, maybe have two wheels up front, one in the back) and fly that. Would be something to see. No wings flying trike?

Would be amazing to see you guys do a Storm Trooper on a Speeder, maybe using similar build design like the Harry Potter Broomstick. I was thinking with the design of the speeder having fins in the front, and alit more area in the rear, carbon rods/foam board for the front assembly, foam board rear chassis, and storm trooper vertical. would help a lot with stability.
