Flying wings are intrinsically unstable and are only flyable with computer

The Facetmobile was reputedly not difficult to fly and "departure
resistant" (says the website). It doesn't classify itself as a
"flying wing" but it certainly falls into the category of lifting
body type aircraft.

It was damaged in an off-airport landing after an engine failure
and subsequent collision with a barbed wire fence, so hasn't flown
in a while.
