Auto Credit Based on LordofLego's ***SOLVED*** Please help (NOT FINISHED)

Credit to @LordofLego. I changed the blocks and jet engine on the front to fuselage blocks which made it easier to adjust the fuel and weight. Also on my phone the wing landing gear screws up the wings and makes the plane roll when they fold up across multiple wing segments...so I made them one piece. At 150 MPH, pull back and she will lift off...build speed up to 300 MPH and she will pitch up ever so slightly. This is a good design and I like the inlet design on the bottom of the plane...I may have to borrow it! But I hope this helps you with your build!

    @LordofLego - you are right...That's what I get for rushing my testing...it hits 300 when pitched down slightly...if you want...you can change the bottom fuselage block (the one that covers the inlet) so that it has 5 gal of fuel and weighs 300 lbs...that will make it pitch up slightly at a top speed of 285. Takes a bit to get to that speed...and be careful on takeoff...if you pull back to hard the plane stalls.

    This works as advertised except it can't get to three hundred. It tops off at 279.
