Bell X-1

135 Romansword13  8.4 years ago

The Bell X-1 was the first supersonic aircraft and it was powered a single solid fuel rocket engine. Because its simple planes, there are no rockets so I used a small engine... As a result it cant go supersonic, I have tried modded engines however they made the plane pitch too high. Excuse any innacuracies but I like my planes to fly and as a result I had to make minor adjustments... Enjoy : )
