design goals:
1) low observability, rcs lower than b2; adaptive camo w/ angle of incidence dependency
2) active e-warfare: high degree of interference performance to hostile guidance systems/ tracking systems (theoretical but hard to implement on sp...)
3) 1400+ kph at sea level with excellent acceleration
4) high energy retention, some degree of psm without losing too much energy for maneuvers, retain better handling than early non stealth fighters.
Special: this thing actually does YAWS better than 90% of planes out there (10% goes to planes with gyros and TVCs.)
it can actually make turns staying flat & stealthy. (think about slide and run engagements.) probably better than all planes with tails.
i think it's about 60% complete, with new updated flight controls, better but not perfect.
the adaptive camo is from JoshuaW. great thanks to him, he builds really cool stuff and u can get the camo here_.

@Blackbron2000 well, theres no aoa limiter on this thing to begin with, for the twitching elimination i think theres a way to do it with the funky that involves with agl, so the control surface correction will not react to the near zeros corrections while on the ground
@GorillaGuerrilla I suggest something like a disabled aoa - limiter. so that, for example, the air brakes and the ellerons do not twitch at the start. Like here https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/FJzaE4/X-02S-Strike-Wyvern-Archange
Or here (automated yaw stability system made the switchable on a separate button) https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/vLq93W/Normont-Grummer-Invisibomber
@Blackbron2000 oh yea, it was ok earlier then somehow the back of the wing airfoil/panel got connected to the fuselage along the process, i will fix that later for the while u can diy and get them disconnected if u want to enjoy it... btw what u mean by switchable automation?? u have any specific suggestions?
really cool model, but there are problems with the left wing. it doesn't add up. and it would also be nice to make a switchable automation
@ZeroWithSlashedO my planes are mostly heavily modified evolutions from previous models, so it's probably from the same cockpit or flight computers, i will fix that later
why is it a successor to my challenge though?
either way this is still getting upvoted since I still owe you like 8 upvotes
@tarikGR thanks, it should for a gen 7+
Kinda unique lol
