    @dilisvarskvlavi reducing the weight if your aircraft enhances its acceleration. It still makes the plane go faster but not by much

    If you want your plane to have better top speed, reduce the drag as much as possible..

    This plane has a single 10x powered VTOL engine. I choose the VTOL because it accelerate faster than other engines.. To make the plane turn really fast, i put all my control surface far away fron the CoL so that they exert more force when deflected.

    @BeryllCorp Yes, this demonic flying pencil won. I ran it against everything I had and it dominated. All x10 engine aircraft wound up splattered on a cliff face or dunked in the drink and everything with standard or x2 power that I had were easily outrun. I went back to the first aircraft I ever built, remodeled it with new parts, some modded stuff I've saved in my subassemblies list, a single x5 engine and managed to finish the course 4/5 times in 79 seconds; Still far behind your' bird but still it astounded me how spritely that thing turned out. I created an armed version of it afterwards, as it sorta resembles an anorexic Alpha-Jet with a pair of guns in each wing, a single underwing pylon and wingtip Interceptors. She still finished the course with those mods in 86 seconds! lol Do you think adding a modded weight reduction block somewhere on the airframe would improve that time?

    @CanofBeans @BeryllCorp Ok, i can't thank you both enough already. I'm trying to develop an XML jet racer, seeing how my prop racer was utterly demolished in the last competition. structural stability is becoming a major speed bump, and i feel the handling is subpar for they type of plane it is. https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/dHanOE/Project-Formula
