"Orange Phoenix" - Elite Drone
This drone was made as a companion to my first plane, "Orange Eagle". To fully appreciate this drone, you need to at least look at the "Eagle", but it really doesn't matter as this one is better anyway.
High performance drone. Can reach:
91,000+ ft altitude,
1410+ mph diving,
1150+ mph easily during level flight.
Excellent maneuverability, easily the sharpest of the planes I've uploaded, which makes it very fun to fly. High speed turns are very fast and fun; this drone has a different feel while turning than my "manned" aircraft, which I like. Very difficult to break even on low graphics.
The imaginary backstory of this drone is that it was built using parts salvaged from several old "Orange Eagles", which had been mothballed due to their obsolescence. Because of this, it has a mismatched, thrown-together appearance that gives it more personality than my other planes. Since it was built from the metaphorical "ashes" of another airplane, I gave it a suitable nickname, "Phoenix". Hope you like it!

646 kellyJVery good. Handles well. Very few models on SP have the altitude/cruise speeds of your creation. It even beats my "F-22 Raptor 1100 mph cruise" mod (in dive speed only). Keep it up!9.9 years ago
