this aircraft uses VTOL controls for the pitch and rudder controls to rotate aircraft on z axis for a full view of rotation. this aircraft's max speed is roughly 10,000 kph sorry for the metric units because i do not use miles. there are no mods required. i definetly recommend going into slow motion to get the fell for this air craft. it uses VTOL for lift at it's back and one large engine for the main propelssion. GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN!

Glad to help.
@atgxtg oh great!, thanks alot bro.
Sure, under Parts->Propulsion you will see three types of Inlets. Inlets, the standard; Slim Inlets, you used a bunch of those; and Fuselage Inlets, the round looking ones.. Fuselage Inlets can be shaped and sized like fuselage blocks and cones can. You can even put them behind another part, and they will still manage to take in some air.
So you could add a fuselage inlet to your "Needle", maybe instead of one of the fuselage blocks, or inline with one, and your vehicle could keep the same shape, because you could shape the fuselage inlet. That would let you get rid of some of your small inlets, reducing the drag and weight and making the Needle a bit faster. You might be able to take 500 points off your drag total that way.
Nice idea
@atgxtg thx for that but what do u mean by the fusalage thing, can u please re-explain that
Its an interesting idea. As far as possible improvements go:
1. Try to get your Center of Mass (red Ball) in front of your Center of Lift (Blue Ball) so the nose doesn't keep pitching up.
2. You could make it more stable by adding a gyroscope.
3. You could make it more streamlined and get rid of some of your intakes by putting a fuselage intake behind the nosecone (yes you can actually block off the opening).
PLZ COMMENT on improvements i can make to this aircraft, thx
