**Tested on highest setting, low settings the suspension is really bad!!**

Well this is what ive been building in my very limited free time. Big thanks to the community for the ideas for the chassis(@mixa4634 inspired the idea, others I improved upon their concepts). VTOL up and down determines forward and reverse, and roll is steering(you can change it to yaw if you like that, make sure to switch the steering wheel too :)...). 1 detaches from gas base with modded tank(had to keep the piece count down for mobile users) and 2 activates rear axle steering for tricky spots. The wheels tend to explode if going too fast over jumps. This thing can drive in the water, but the engines die right before the water goes over the hood. Enjoy, this ones for you @Wakescar!

    @banbantheman No wheels, no shocks, it was rough making stuff in the stone age of Simpleplanes, but rewarding when it actually worked.

    So that's how suspension was made back in the dark ages... So much easier now

    You know I've seen one of these. It's was a walleys jeep (sure I spelled that wrong) just really jacked up suspension and crazy tyres fitted. This is a lovely representation of that

    @PhilipTarpley, thanks for the rating. What is incredible is the amount of possibilities in this game, the physics still blow my mind. With the tank I just made, I just laughed like a little school girl when it started rolling around. You guys are geniuses.

    @Mkenz the chassis for this build is under my airplanes, its the 4x4 challenge. If you wanted to, you can delete all the fuel cells and add a modded one as a detacher(they weigh a ton)like the one on this build to keep the frame rate up. Its the piece count that Fs that up.

    And the framerate dropped to zero. Can you put out just a suspension like some people do for mobile users?

    @StrawHat, Glad you like it, you should check out another variant of this chassis https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/688sB1/Dune-Buggy. He did an awesome job on it.

    @Wakescar, i guess having to fix all of our rigs ourselves from trail abuse gives one an eye for building things in fake life lol. Hell of a lot easier and cheaper.

    @Scriefers, thanks for the rating and feedback. Means a lot coming from you, and its nice to see all the 4x4 enthusiasts coming out to show love. Such a fun pastime blazing up and down trails in a jeep. Cant wait to bust a few U joints and break something else on my 4x4 this spring(79 ford f150), this build just let me get my kicks without all the fixes.
