After years of constructing obscenely overpowered propeller planes, engineers at Kerbatros Aviation finally decided to develop a more modest power-plant.
The end result was the P-2 Firetail series of aircraft powered by a measly combined 30 units of reaction wheel torque. A pleasant surprise to everyone involved, this small engine ended up being highly reliable while still possessing a fantastic thrust to weight ratio.
The lightweight construction of the Firetail (under 3 tons) affords it spectacular maneuverability while its aerodynamic shape allows a decent top speed in level flight at 115 m/s.
The simple and rugged design of the aircraft (not even employing retractable landing gear) makes it a favorite to daring pilots looking to impress the KSC R&D facility with wild aerobatics and novice pilots alike.
Controls: Alt+Q/E Throttle the engine. Action group [9] toggles high speed propeller pitch. Action group [10] toggles engine power on / off.
