Working on a jet fighter design.

[Senior Space Cadet]

I did a very preliminary design on OR.
I'm trying to keep the build as simple as possible while getting the general look.
I have a nosecone with canopy that I was going to use on an X-15 build, but kits are back and I'm into doing something different.
I'd be interested in seeing similar projects you guys have done.

Here's one. Flew fine.

Looks like an SST.
Looks fast standing still. Pretty cool.

This was one I did:

It flew alright, but had a little wiggle on the way up. I may try moving the CG forward to see if that helps.

And this one:

Did the better part of a loop on its first flight, so it probably won't fly again.

That one looks like an SR-70, the precursor. (No, not really. The precursor to the SR-71 was the A-12, which looks 99% the same.)
