alpha
One of the most maneuverable and difficult to fly planes on the site
alpha
is a PSM variant of a plane I've been working on for a long time. It's a stunt plane, and it doesn't come with any weapons or anything. It can do post-stall maneuvers without thrust vectoring; as you can see in this GIF:
Which means it can do some insane stunts:
since it doesn't have thrust vectoring, it uses a gyroscope (Activation Group 2). You'll want to keep it on most of the time. Some people consider this cheating, but I wanted to make a plane truly unique to SimplePlanes. It's probably my favorite plane to fly around at the moment, and it utilizes a flight model I've stumbled across that is in my opinion one of the smoothest flying planes on the site. link here
It is mobile friendly, and I can run it on high graphics on my $400 potato laptop without getting frame drops. Those GIFs do have low frame rates; that's just because they are GIFs. My actual framerate was ~30 FPS
It may look terrible but try it out. You won't be dissapointed.

Anyway, thanks for reading and have fun!
