Flying Wing Tornado? How fast can we barrel roll?

 

The Raptor 100 is pretty maneuverable stock, but I wanted to see if I could increase the Raptor 100's barrel roll rate to an insane level. Do a rapid diving barrel roll and you have a tornado!

To accomplish this, I doubled the throw distance and eventually doubled the size of the the elevons to give it massive control authority with impressive results.
