I'll be aiming for this Russian oddity: the Kalinin K-12
This Site claims this proof-of-concept pre-WWII was a test for a larger tail-less Bomber. After successful demonstrations of this Bird-feather-painted working concept, the designer was arrested prior the larger version was finished.
While the Amazing Painting Scheme caught my eye,
It was the trailing reverse foil that got me interested.
Plus I can fly my mini-arrow with comfort now, so the failures here will be less Pilot error, and more design related.
I'll start with these planes here:
