Your design suggests stability may need further consideration. A contra-rotating, pendulous, approach might offer fewer aerodynamic challenges and provide better payload space and lower vibration...

Cracking eggs by the way.

Yes. F104G.
In 2011 on an airfield near Harringworth. (Can't remember the name).
A French guy I was flying with at the time was thinking of buying it, but there was too much corrosion.
