ive slapped together some crude airbraking flaps. they also help make the craft more stable for landings. next thing im going to tackle is adding some vacuum engines to allow for orbital adjustments.
capable of speeds in excess of 4400 m/s while also drinking fuel like a very thirsty fish. have fun! XD
note: it can get into a huge elliptical orbit but it will still reenter without some kind of additional thrust. reentry is easy.
"Engine braking" ag must be turned on for them to work. After engaging the activation group, increase brake slider to 100 percent and then increase the throttle to apply reverse thrust. It's pretty effective for shedding speed but it still may take a bit to slow down if near or at top speed.
This craft is insane and needs to be treated like a flying squirrel that eats chili peppers and shoots fire out his butt fast enough to propel him beyond Mach 10 (or Mach 13 for a short time)
Full throttle along with thrust vectoring on the pitch axis allows for extremely high g maneuvers which would technically end in killing the pilot in real life, so obviously this is a fanciful craft built purely for amusement. However I am thinking of building a version with more realistic capabilities.

@UPGIndustries Not Yet, but because of that description, a morbid curiosity arises. Will fly soon!

@ExplorationAerospace lol it's also pretty accurate. I tried to keep it PG 13. Have you flown it yet?

That was quite a read, if I do say so myself.
@ExplorationAerospace Nice, pls Ignore the lack of interior, it will be added in the next update!
Also, feel free to critique the squirrelly hyperjet! I know how it feels to me but I like getting others' opinions. V0.45 is probably the fastest and most unstable BTW since I added another 3 engines. (2 total engines if you disconnect the tanks in the designer which makes it much more stable and controllable) either way, hope to hear what you think XD
