NOTE FROM THE DESIGNER
Back in 2003, there was a TV series called "Firefly" and it was a sci-fi western set far into the future. The "Serenity" was their ship and was a Firefly class cruiser that the cast and crew used in their adventures. With this design, I attempted to re-create the "Serenity" with some simple profile designs and the end result was really surprising. If you keep the build light it will float great and with the correct CG, it performs very well.
The Serenity Firefly is a good performer and while its not aerobatic, it faithfully flies and is pretty simple to build. I use foam from modelplanefoam.com but depron or foam board from your local dollar store should work just as well. Be sure to check out my other designs on my website!
