I've figured it out... It's right on the tip of everyone's tongue, and here's a clue: It's the transition section, although James' version is a bit simplified. Think of the Laser-X.

Very good combination of ideas, James! And although the A8-3 doesn't give it much of an altitude boost, I like it in the list. It allows you to fly in tight areas without having it drift away.

Addendum: I also just noticed it qualifies for the VR class...
