    I made the spyplane version of the U-2 a while ago, link here. As for the other one, I might be able to make it. @Frant24

    If you go into the engine settings there's a section that says pitch control, normally it's on auto, but switch it to fixed with a 70% pitch. @RyneKuczy

    Switch to a 5 prop scimitar design with a thickness of 2x and a fixed 70% pitch. This will get you to 650mph, also try to re-assess the airfoil types to be more stable. @RyneKuczy

    Yeah, It can get up to about 550mph in level flight. @Viper28

    @Thefalloutplayr Yeah, I usually don't try to win the Sky Cup. I didn't spend a whole lot of time on this, but I still wanted to enter.
