Update 4 November 2021:
The mod was updated for the latest game version. The wing now has the same color like the stock parts:
I can't solve some problems with airfoil selection. You can think the airfoil button does nothing:
In fact, this button does work. You just won't see any changes in the designer until you reload the aircraft or enter the level:
There is one known bug: It's possible the wing can become extremely large and get a weird geometry when you open the settings menu:
The cause of this bug is not known, however you can see all the sliders in the part settings menu have been maxed out. If this happens, I recommend you either delete this part and create a new one, or undo and get a previous version.
Do not forget to delete the old version of the mod.
Mod Description
Hello!
I present to you my new mod: Variable wing.
This mod allows you to create a 3D model of a wing with an airfoil:
The settings can be tweaked to create complicated wings:
Important note: The part has no physics. It is just a 3D model.
The mod contains a Variable Wing part in the Structural category::
Usually at the begin of the description i write about part attributes. But now i show you how to create wing that you can better understand meaning of the attributes.
I recommend you to use default airfoil NACA 0012 in this tutorial.

If you like this mod and want support me, see description of my channel
@shiwoshiwo2 idk
How can i use the rotators i can't find them
Meanwhile me with fuselage slicing technique
Wont download onto simple planes for some reason
that one known bug is actually from the game itself. it happens to every part with sliders.
how do i add control surfaces
@GorillaGuerrilla Can you give me an example?
@Korzalerke the game already having trouble with limited calculations already, let alone different airfoil and aerodynamic properties. i think the airfoils that come with the game has hard coded properties to simplify number crunching
Why is this not in the game yet?
@TheGliderGuy oh okay thank you!
@XDarqness Simple planes doese not suport android anymore if it comes to mods.
for Android ??
@PlaneFlightX I have consider most part of your advices. The description has been edited. Tutorial have been moved to tutorial wing. Thank you!
@MOPCKOEDNISHE Okay, I understand. I will write the changes in an unlisted post and tag you when I am done.
@PlaneFlightX Sorry, but i cant do it. I dont want to mislead users. You have not relation to creating of this mod, for this reason i cant add you as contributor. If you have any advices to description, you can write it and i will consider them.
I have a contribution I would like to make to this amazing mod - I have some changes I would make to the description to make it easy to understand. If you add me as a contributor I can make the changes.
This and Variable Fuselage, both need to be added to the vanilla game! :P
But simplifying their menus would be the really hard part... :( heh
@PlaneFlightX Yes, i have restored tutorial today. In first time i have used imgur for showing gifs. But in one time google chrome have stop showing imgur's gifs. I have make a decision, that imgur account not need me anymore and have deleted it. But im absolutely forgot that many pictures of my mods have imgur hosting too. For these reason all pictures have been deleted too from all my mods. Now i use postimg for pics and gfycat for gifs and chrome show it both without any troubles.
Im happy to read that you use this mod. Enjoy!
I just logged on now as well and noticed the tutorial Imgur images have been fixed (they show up now) I really appreciate your efforts to keep a great mod great and keep the tutorial available. This mod has just the right amount of customization for wings. Not too much where I spend 1 hour making 1 part, yet not too little where I can't even change it. While there is a fuselage slicing thing to make wings of a similar shape in vanilla now, I will stick with these wings because my planes are pretty high part count anyway, so most mobile users wouldn't have access anyway.
@PlaneFlightX Mod was updated. Please read the update description and check your airplanes.
niiiiiiiice，👴 like this mod
