For the Unlimited Class: Daredevil tournament. Heavily based on my last tournament plane, the Burt Reynolds Racer.
Usually clocks 1:02-1:03. Reliability is marginal; I'm sure it will crash out. :) I wanted it to break a minute (in which case the plane would have been named "Minuteman"), but I kept hitting a wall around 1:01-1:02, and I've invested as much time as I'm willing to into this.... I hope somebody else broke it!

@Pauciloquent Yes, the picture of your fast time will always be there to console you. As for making fancy planes, that is something I have no skill at... That's why I've been doing the tournaments instead of trying to make nice-looking planes like everyone else! :) I will probably stick with trying to make them simple and fast... even though every fast plane crashed out of this tournament really early.
@ABC123 Oh and we crashed at the very same place maybe even the same girder...
@ABC123 Yes slow feels very wrong... but I can make it fancy ; P
@ABC123 But I will always have that 0:59 picture....
@Pauciloquent Oops, we were writing at the same time. Haha. Yes, slower and safer is probably better... But it feels so wrong to make it slow on purpose!
@Pauciloquent Haha, thanks. It's ok, it was expected. I missed watching it, but that's probably good-I would have been yelling at it for crashing! :)
Also, I just saw yours race-sorry to you, too. No luck for either of us today! :(
Hehe double crash for me to ; P Oh well... I guess it's slow and steady next time... maximum speed just doesn't work to well...
Sorry about the double crash : ( ...stupid random A.I crashes....
Another beast! Nice plane @abc123
