flight instructions. start of in one of the finale approaches throttle to 100% and pull up . The North American X-15 was a hypersonic rocket-powered aircraft operated by the United States Air Force and theNational Aeronautics and Space Administration as part of the X-plane series of experimental aircraft. The X-15 set speed and altitude records in the 1960s, reaching the edge of outer space and returning with valuable data used inaircraft and spacecraft design. As of 2015, the X-15 holds the official world record for the highest speed ever reached by a manned, powered aircraft. Its maximum speed was 4,520 miles per hour (7,274 km/h), or Mach 6.72.[1]. don't forget to come back and rate (-:

@picy yea thank you it's perfect but surface phase shows a small part of the tail and nothing more but it works :-D good for PC users who use high water detail ,,you can upload it to public :-D
@FennVectorCWA I got it working!
@FennVectorCWA so what if it sinks slowly and with vtol come up?
@picy thank you very much :-D
@FennVectorCWA I'm not doing anything at the moment and it's the least can do
@picy you are good builder , but again if you are planning for your own builds ...do them first
@picy yea true, my idea was like this : Activate VTOL nozzle points upward (submerge) ...deactivate VTOL engine ....Rise to surface with other 2 nozzels that will point backwards for propulsion ...my 2 problems are Turning (it's way more better than older versions) and buoyant fuselages that resists VTOL nozzle thrust ...if i decrease the buoyancy percentage it sinks if i increase the buoyancy it repels/resists the thrust and jumps out of water :/ ill give 10 upvotes for anyone who puts his effort in this project even if he or she fails
Well one problem is props don't work under water so I've put some vtol engines on
@picy thanks :-D
@FennVectorCWA I'll get to work on ur sub 😃
@FennVectorCWA thanks! haha lol
@picy you too you're great guy to bad that when iw as new ....i ve believe that pressing that star next to your airplane will make me a followers of yours ...then i knew it means favorite and i must head to your profile XD my bad ..,
@FennVectorCWA ur a SUPER nice guy 😊
@picy a gift ....points XD
@FennVectorCWA thanks again,
And btw why all the upvotes?
