This was just a little fun build inspired by the highly modified planes built for the Reno Air Races.

This plane is designed for SPEED and Its top speed is almost supersonic!
Very fun to fly around and you can do some very fun aerobatics aswell!
There is however a downside to this speed,
Its a pain in the trousers to take off and land!

For take off;
If the pane starts yawing roll untill a wing knocks against the ground whilst pitching up.
This is trial and error but usually works.

For landing;
Approach with engine at below 10%throttle.
Gradually reduce altitude untill you are almost touching the runway,
Now brake and as you are about to hit the ground pitch up to land on all three wheels.
If you mess up a landing approach press 7.

8 toggles smoke and night light.

!!!ENJOY!!!! :D
