Zaineman: "Any faster and you are wasting your time. "
Me: "Are you sure about that?"
Designed to give Zaineman aneurysm, this plane only has 108 drag points which allow it to go to mach 3. The stability margin on this plane is designed to maximize turning at near mach 1, meaning it is nearly impossible to control at speeds below 500km/h. Fortunately, I have programmed a simple pitch axis stabilization to help with lower speed turns but the turn rate was significantly nerfed to reduce the chance of accidental stalling. Therefore, I would still recommend flying near Mach 1 (40% Throttle) to get the best experience.
Also, from my testing, I can finish Trench Run in 1:21, Indy Air Race in 36s, and Shark Tooth in 1:00. For high speed tracks, it can finish Sandsift drift in 46s.

Looks 10/10 speed 10/10 turning 10/10 ! ! ! I went tearing though the canyons at Wright Airport with no problem whatsoever. I even did it at 38% power which was still over Mach 1 I believe ! What a plane Ownedpilot ! !
@Zaineman Thank you very much! The only build I would like a spotlight is my F-15ES High Mobility Strike Eagle. And since that plane is already PSM capable, I think you do not need to work on that. Unless you wish to convert it to project wingman physics and give it a Monarch paintjob.
Congrats you won First place ! Take you time and let me know what build you would like me to spotlight. No hurry. Also, if the contest would have allowed multiple entries, you would have won second place as well. Seriously, no doubt about it.
I just finally read your description hilarious. Zaine says "Hold my Coolaid, I'm going flying ! "
