UAV Design

I have a totally noob questoin so please go easy on me :-) I made this plane in 3D and just theoretically, what if I actually wanted to build this thing? I know nothing about aerodynamics or what it takes to design a machine thats actually supposed to fly. Any suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated...

Hi, used cinema 4D for these. I just happen to be more fluent with c4D and it's easier for me to be creative. It doeesnt feel so much like work. But when I arrive to a design I want to build, I move to autocad. All of my renders are done in cinema 4D.

I don't know your workflow, where do you begin visualizing your ideas? Paper or google sketch?
