Overview:
Experimental aircraft made by DX Aerospace. It has no vertical stabilizer, and is thus unstable. Couple this with 3D thrust vectoring, and you've got a plane that's ludicrously maneuverable, but also quite dangerous. To counter this, the aircraft can be operated both manned and unmanned to prevent death and blackouts from high G-forces. It uses two next-generation Atlicus-87 heated plasma engines.
Controls:
AG1: Enables plasma boost. Basically an afterburner.
AG2: Enables 3 dimensional thrust vectoring. You can do crazy maneuvers like flat spins, mid-air loops, and more.
AG3: Limits the elevators for less maneuverability, but less G-forces and therefore less danger.
AG4: This is supposed to be a gyroscope to aid with landing, but due to some reason, it does not function.
AG5: Enables air-to-air missiles.
AG6: Can't remember.
AG7: Can't remember either.
AG8: Once again, can't remember.
VTOL: Adjusts the engine flaps. It's only for cosmetic purposes.

Alright, i've done the testing. Here are the results:
The aircraft still remains stable, but it likes to "drift" in the air.
The weapon holders that were accidentally made to be wing panels caused the aircraft to still have some stability.
If anybody else is wanting to try it out like that, here is the instruction to do so:
(Overload is required)
-Select the wing piece.
-Open OL.
-Click on the OL window's top drop-down-list and select "Wing".
-Set "EnableWingPhysics" to false.
-Confirm the changes (check mark button)
-repeat for all of the pylons.
Now, the aircraft should have become unstable.
Try it out and you'll see just how hard it is to control.

@TomekHellFire niice
Yep, same with this one.
I almost wanted to play deja vu on the phone and drift the plane like it's initial d
@AccilianMilitaryAircraft
@TomekHellFire The in-air drifting is a common thing on rudderless aircraft. I did flight testing in various stages for my F-15 replica and the testing before I added the rudders experienced a ton of said drifting. It was actually kind of funny watching it happen
Alright, i figured it out:
i accidentally used wings instead of structural panels for the weapon pylons, and it seems that that small of a wing area is enough to make the aircraft somewhat stable. I'll try to convert them into s. panels using XML and i'll see what the results are.
@AccilianMilitaryAircraft
Strange. I might check out if there IS a hidden vertical stab in there.
(i call stabilizers "stabs" since its easier and my tongue won't become chernobyl trying to say it)
@AccilianMilitaryAircraft
@TomekHellFire That is peculiar... Normally all my rudderless planes are rediculously unstable
It does actually NO vertical stabs, not even hidden ones. I have no idea how it made it semi-stable, as it is quite an old build.
@AccilianMilitaryAircraft
I like this concept.
