Why do my wings flap?

177 Abel6669  8.8 years ago

I'm building a massive jumbo, i've got my wings on but they constantly flap, to the point where they snap off.. what can i do to fix this (without xml mods)

i want to build a big jumbo style wing but the size of the snap point is so small, part of me thinks that the distance of the edge of whe wing makes it worse...but i cant do it any other way.

    @Abel6669 go into overload, and change the wing type from Wing-3 to Wing-2.

    Use a structural wing for parts without flaps and a normal wing where the flaps go. It should make it better. I can give you an example later but i gotta go to work now.

    or you can make fuselage 0.5 thickness and hide wings inside them

    Try connecting it to another wing, that usually fixes it.

    It's cause you're a majestic eagle who needs to be set free

    XMLs won't help you, with the exception of control surfaces on structural wings. Upload it in an unlisted post and I can take a looksee.
