Glider Challenge [20 Upvote Prize]

28.0k Armyguy1534  4.8 years ago

Deadline

Extended to whenever I can


How this will work

I will spawn at Wright final approach. I will not control the plane, but will turn on autopilot immediately (and turn on fast forward). Immediately before you crash, I will pause the game, save the spot as a location and record the distance from Wright Final
Physics: High
No wind
I will not control it at all


Prizes

  1. 20 Updoots and a spotlight if possible
  2. 15 Updoots and a spotlight if possible
  3. 10 Updoots and a spotlight if possible

    • 10 Updoots for the best looking

      All entries will get an upvote

    @Armyguy1534 Umm, quick question... I was testing out a new glider, what if we fly all the way to Krakabloa and the plane at the end of the runway at Maywar despawns?

    Since we seem to be rolling back to the old challenges here, I suggest your next challenge to be a fighter challenge. No missiles tho, just guns. A test of maneuverability and design. I love entering these kinds of design challenges!
