Conquest X-30

5,802 DragonAerotech  8.8 years ago

After waking in the middle of the night I decided to build something from my childhood - and from my son's; GI Joe's Conquest X-30. This is purely from memory so I don't know if I got many details right. She's fast, has modded guns in the nose, modded wings for strength, modded engines and 2.64 mil gallons of fuel. If you remember the Conquest and her pilot Slipstream from your' childhood - give her an upvote if you will.

    @Feschterohjo I'd love to check it out! This bird looks a bit deformed due to trying to stay true to the memory of that toy. After a little testing I discovered if you add 1k dead weight to the bulbous canopy the thing will loop each way and roll for you all day long. I still need a USAF wing insignia of the appropriate size though... OMW to check out your' bird!

    Really nice airplane! I would be really pleased if you would look up my new airplane (Concorde v2016) and maybe leave a upvote? :D
