Plane that flies sideways (Follow-Up of the Reverse Plane)

[Aero_Knight]

Take a standard FT model and make it fly along the lateral axis. Flying wings would probably be too difficult a challenge so something like the Mustang or Scout would probably be more reasonable. Crabbing or knife-edge doesn't count. Must maintain "level" flight. I would say no chopping of the tail surface but instead I will say feel free to rotate the vertical tail surface 90 degrees. Enjoy!

The "Backup Plane" flew both forwards and backwards, but not in the same flight. I had to reverse the propeller and change the orientation of the flight controller.

Many planes have been made to fly backwards, even in the days of glow power. They are really just canards dressed up to look like they are flying backwards.
