I don't just mean turning down the performance. Do you ever intentionally add poor design feature to your craft?
Stabilizers that can hit the ground if landing is poor? Unstable landing gear? Something else entirely?
I'm talking things that you could've very easily avoided without compromising your core design, but you left in purposefully.
To be clear, the reason I'd suspect someone would do this is because many aircraft aren't perfect. Many have quirks that have to be worked around.
@Graingy ye
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 I see. You built it, looked at its performance, and thought "yep, just what I was looking for."
@Graingy no...I just wanted it to be kinda unstable in general
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 You just intentionally built it poorly and took what you got?
@Graingy no
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 I see.
Did you specifically try to induce particular kinds of instability?
@Graingy yeah, since irl it never flew
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 You intentionally made it unstable?
@Graingy it's at times unstable, and all and all just doesn't fly great
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 What's the flaw in it?
my most upvoted plane yes
When it comes to most of my planes labelled with the “99s” company I genuinely make sure that it’s as terrible as possible. As in I ignore the performance of them and the only prerequisite is that it flies. But for an actual example my Moebius has the capability to fall flat on its front and cease functioning, and its design can cause a lot of death spiralling.
@DDVC that was intentional, yes?
Wonderful example. Structural limitations.
The wings on my D-75 can snap if you dive and fully pull the pitch. Unfortunately it only works on mobile and with low physics
@XEPOH Pardon?
@THEOKPILOT See Me 163.
Pilots had to be extremely careful with the thing, lest they either explode or be melted alive.
@Graingy On purpose? Or for like combustion fuel efficiency reasons?
@THEOKPILOT I mean, some aircraft do use volatile fuel.
I usually chuck a small bomb in a few things, don't pay in cash, you will pay in blood.
The closest thing I do is compromising stability for sweet sweet turn speed
@Graingy i never deliberately put flaws into my aircraft.
if i do my aircraft would not even take off due to the already existing flaws
@XEPOH If you intended me to see that, maybe consider not deleting every damn thing you say.
@Boeing727200F Not what I meant.
not intentionally, but most of my aircraft have a flaw in it that i just cant kink out. so i guess it is just a feature.
