Auto Credit Based on hopotumon's Simple Fighter Challenge (Closed)
Caution: this build although 100% stock menu parts is rigged as an AI Dogfighter. Entry into @hopotumon Simple Fighter Challenge. Competes well in Far, Medium, and Close AI combat. Folks, rationale for building this from scratch: I have not seen competitive Delta Wing builds in AI contests, yet. Have fun testing, it may surprise you. Especially in AI combat. A slow racer, Oceanview course in 2:02, Daredevil course in 1:55. Again, a fighter, not a racer.

Simple Fighter Result
Thank you. The front/rear pitch control is interesting to watch. This completely new build will shoot down both of my other two entries to this challenge at far and medium ranges. The Jundroo "close" range ends up with all aircraft looping around until one of them runs out of fuel. Caveat: a slow target builds will just hang in there until you shoot it down. You have a new delta body to play with. The cockpit does not affect performance. Tested with cockpit on top, same performance. So for cosmetic appearances I mounted a scaled cockpit (your's now) behind the aircraft build's nose. @hopotumon
Thank You for this special edition plane. @stingray
