How to set a max rotation on an object in C# (Unity)

I am trying to make a space ship tilt upwards when it travels upwards or tilt downwards when it falls but I'm stuck this is what I have so far

 if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Space)) //If spacebar pressed
        {
            playerRb.AddForce(Vector3.up * floatForce, ForceMode.Impulse); // Add force upwards to player
        }

        // Rotates upwards
        if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Space))
        {
            if (transform.rotation.x != -maxRotation)
            {
                transform.Rotate(-rotationSpeed, 0f, 0f * Time.deltaTime);
                transform.Rotate(-maxRotation, 0f, 0f);
            }
        }

It just spins infinitely when I press down on the space bar...

Any help? Thank you

If you want to limit rotation of an object, you can modify the eulerAngles property value.

Example

The following script takes a couple of vectors and makes sure the object rotation remains in range between their x, y, z values.

using UnityEngine;

public class RotationLimitter : MonoBehaviour
{
    [SerializeField]
    private bool runOnUpdate = true;
    [SerializeField]
    private bool runOnLateUpdate = false;
    [SerializeField]
    private bool runOnFixedUpdate = false;
    
    [Space]
    [SerializeField]
    private Vector3 minRotation = Vector3.zero;
    [SerializeField]
    private Vector3 maxRotation = Vector3.zero;

    private void Update()
    {
        if (runOnUpdate)
            LimitRotation();
    }

    private void LateUpdate()
    {
        if (runOnLateUpdate)
            LimitRotation();
    }

    private void FixedUpdate()
    {
        if (runOnFixedUpdate)
            LimitRotation();
    }

    private void LimitRotation()
    {
        float x = Mathf.Clamp(transform.eulerAngles.x, minRotation.x, maxRotation.x);
        float y = Mathf.Clamp(transform.eulerAngles.y, minRotation.y, maxRotation.y);
        float z = Mathf.Clamp(transform.eulerAngles.z, minRotation.z, maxRotation.z);

        transform.eulerAngles = new Vector3(x, y, z);
    }
}
