This aircraft may just be the fastest piston aircraft in the game. An all new contra-rotating 16 cylinder engine strapped to a specially build airframe in order to break the piston speed record. In it's early prototype stages it reached speeds of 290-300 mph. After I made several modifications to the plane and the engine/prop, it's now capable of 390 mph.

POWER OUTPUT: 30,000 lbf (28,000 HP)

On takeoff, throttle up to 50% and lower the VTOL slider to adjust the propeller pitch. As you gain speed, lower the pitch even more. Rotate at 100-120 mph. It may have a strong yaw in the beginning, just keep the plane going as straight as possible and it will automatically correct itself. If the situation gets really bad(A stall), increase throttle and prop pitch and fight your way out of it, the plane should have enough power.

I just found out the wings are actually not symmetric, the right wing is one segment longer than the left one. I recommended you fix that before flight.
