Gliders!

1,270 TaylorWatson12  9.1 years ago

Hi People!

Let's see if we can get some love going for gliders! Planes with no engines (or little ones to get up there) which aim to reduce drag, increase lift and prolong flight! Modding them is good for the Short Take-Off and Short Landing too by the way! Feel free to use my designs in any way needed!

    @TaylorWatson12 Sounds perfect! Although when you say northern runway location, do you mean the final approach, or actually from the runway?

    @Skua Using this cockpit, submit your Golden Glider to compete against the best! The winner will have created a manoeuvrable, good-looking glider capable of flying the furthest distance from the Nothern Runway Location! Tips: get a low weight/m2, decrease drag and add some go further stripes! Good Luck! SUBMIT BY: 25th October!

    @TaylorWatson12 Just something to get everyone's attention on the main image, that's all. My challenge was a Warhammer 40k one, so I just made a big golden “40k" with the cockpit attached.

    I've only done one myself, and it was apparently much too specific to get any attention haha. All you need to do is make a logo (doesn't have to be anything complex), title it "glider challenge", and put the rules in the description. You need a deadline and a prize (normally about a week away and a bunch of upvotes for the winner, respectively). I can do it if you really don't want to, though

    @Skua I haven't organised any challenges so if you take lead I'm willing to help out?

    It would be good! Gliders work so well in this game and are underrated!

    Maybe we could try a contest; who can get the furthest from one of the default aerial starting points or something?
