Wing design

1,157 substygram  6.5 years ago

From what I see in the old SimplePlanes 1.4 update video, there is a highlighted airplane where the wings are shaped like an airfoil, instead of the normal square-edged wings. I would assume you make that from fuselage parts, or is it some other ways? Anyways, if you could tell me how that works, that'd be greatly appreciated.

    And that is why people need the hidden wing in the fuselage-wing. The wings are for wings, as for the fuselage-wing are just to make the whole planes looks more realistic ;-)

    As for that, sorry, as SP's physic, fuselage do not create any lift, only the wing will have the lift effect

    @Delphinos What about solid fuselage with no actual wing structure? And if it's part-wing-part-fuselage, will it affect the amount of lift?

    Yes, they are made from fuselage. The fuselage attached to the wing, and then simply shape it to look like an actual wings ;-)
