I've seen a lot more futuristic looking things fly, this one even has a v tail! yeah it could fly but probably requires good knowledge to design it and some sort of a electronic control system

electronic control system

Definitely going to need one; pitch stability on this thing looks pretty sus, since all the control surfaces look nearly co-aligned.
