My Entry for the 2019 Fantasy Aircraft - Flite Test Forums Challenge is the toy RC airplane called the Intruder. The Intruder was developed by Spin Master Toys, and sold under the Air Hogs and E Chargers brands back in 2001. If you have been around the forums and the Flite Test family for a few years, you are probably already familiar with this design. My Son Keegan and I made a pair of giant Intruders with 59 inch wing spans that we brought to Flite Fest 2016. They have been featured in a couple of Flite Test videos and both successfully flew in the Official Guinness World Record RC flight at Flite Fest that year.

Most of us know that speed does not scale, but Air Hogs rated the scale speed at 400 MPH! for a 1:24 scale model, that equates to an mind blowing 16.66 MPH.
There is enough to go off of with the two included views here to get the basic shape of the design. But, I wanted to take it a step further and found a like-new Intruder still in the original box on ebay.
