At least there won’t be wing tip vortices ! Seriously – anyone know what the point of this design is?
For the mathematically inclined, a lot of work has been done in the Parsifal research project covering boxwings. The main advantage is low induced drag.
It also ends few eternal debates: low vs high wing, front vs tail gear, turbine vs piston and biplane vs one wing
Now that we are drifting towards innovative designs:

The 45deg prop makes it a wired mix of rotary-vs-fixed wings
