About This File
X-Plane 11.40+ Bell X-1 Version 2.1. This is a completely new build of my earlier submission which incorporates more sophisticated modelling and animation techniques. This famous plane is probably familiar to most enthusiasts, but there is also plenty of information on Wikipedia, etc, the movie "The Right Stuff". Check out the enclosed pilots operating PDF and another PDF which is one of the original NACA reports from the project. Why not take it into your aero' lab' and experiment with building/testing different airfoils. This aircraft got through Mach 1, but the final one, the X-1E, broke Mach 3. Version 2.1 includes a new ZIP with revised .ACF’s for the Jacques Brault's B-29: b-29_superfortress_xp1105.zip and the X-1 which gives better positioning for airdrop and a config image for setup. Please see the included documentation for further details. By Ray Hill.
