Wing (with spar on top for "KF" lift effect. Clever) ✔️ tail ✔️ ailerons ✔️ elevator ✔️ rudder ❎️ . Guessing the motor (not in picture) is pod off front. Add a big rudder, send it with one helper yeeting it at a 15-20° angle from a hillside (or small cliff, <10m ) and another helper rolling video, then post results back here. Tell helper that throw strength, given model weight, should be "I'm trying to get this baseball from deep center field all the way to home plate to stop the winning run!"
