Experimental low drag boxtail. (Supersonic)

2,091 BadmanSalam  4.0 years ago
Auto Credit Based on airlinerbuilder's electric plane challenge (closed)

Simple iOS iphone build. Some more experiments with a low drag fuselage, the Synergy Boxtail wing configuration and NO mods/xml edits.
This has 1192 dragpoints and will attain a speed of 722mph in level flight at 50000 feet using a single 6 bladed scimitar prop at 1000hp power. The speed of sound at 50000 feet is 660 mph.
Was going to be an “electric” build for a challenge but unable to mod rotators on my iPhone :(
Not good at naming so any suggestions?

    @BadmanSalam if you want you can build a second plane using the tutorial i added in the comments of the challenge, it should be easy using that technique

    Of course dude, I forgot to sub assembly what I’d created and replace the cockpit. Just got really frustrated trying to mod/edit the rotators and concentrated on making the fuselage as slippery as I could, went back after I’d uploaded and got it down to 1123. @airlinerbuilder
