    Tried it and it can still crash at the last rings but very rarely... nice plane flys great : ) I'm having serios problems with the last few rings 1430mph can to that... hope I can fix it...

    @iiRazor Use VTOL engines, don't have landing gear, and make the plane as light and with as little drag as possible. For maneuverability, make it turn well, but not so well that the AI actually ends up missing rings (this plane used to have a double wing that only weighed it down) . Having all 3 centers in line is a plus as well so the plane rolls along its center axis and can change direction smoothly from it. If the AI crashes a lot, mess around with the size of control surfaces.
