Edit: winner of the mod class tournament at Bandit Run :)
Racer for the mod class tournament on Bandit Run. Finishes in 1:02-1:06. It's pretty reliable on my pc, but I figure it probably won't be on Andrew's.

@chancey21 Thanks!
@Alienbeef0421 Sorry! We seem to match up a lot in these.
@hopotumon Thanks. Good race.
Congrats
I got killed by the winner again ;-;
Congrats... it's Very speed and agile plane.
It went wrong once or two times when crashed but it was expected. A former co-worker and friend suggested that there's a chance the AI enters in something similar to gimbal lock but only for Roll or Pitch axis (probably Roll). In a broken autopilot design a very high speed model cannot be reoriented to point center of the ring. If this happens and the model is going to overshoot the ring, autopilot tries to fix that and usually crashes in two manners: vertically into the ground or horizontally into the rocky mountains, impossible to set proper Roll/Pitch angle
Your design tracks more smoothly and faster the ring center at very high speed
@EarthwormJim
Ha, I don't deserve such confidence. There's always a very good chance something will go wrong.
@ACMECo1940 Thanks
