Welcome to the new impossible challenge of Baldovino! The "Jet Glider" Race!
NO XML MODDING ALLOWED
You will have to prepare a single-engine aircraft with ONE "Blasto J15". You can not put different engines, or more engines. No rockets, no alternative powertrains, no propellers, no other type of Jet, no pure glider.
The plane must have a gear, and must be able to take off is controlled by me, which controlled by the AI. If it does not take off it will be excluded.
YOU MUST NOT GIVE YOUR ENTRY BEFORE:
Sunday 02 / 21 / 16 to 23.59 hours Italian time. All entry issued before that time will be considered VOID, and will not participate in the challenge, but you can (indeed, highly recommend) while preparing your plane, in order to present a truly amazing finished product.
You will then have two weeks from the start of the competition to release your plane, or up to:
Sunday 03 / 06 / 16 at 23:59 Italian time, but ... although it will not be finished on time, the contest will end when there are 50 registered aircraft. You can quickly release your model, ensuring a place in the competition but withount studying your opponents, or wait to try the other planes, but taking the risk of being excluded because 50 plane enter before your.
The plane must be a successor to my ad, and will not accepted no successor entry aircraft. I'm sorry, but this time I will be inflexible. It MUST be a successor.
Only one entry for player. When you enter one, THIS is the final version, you are NOT allowed to change it. Think before press "share". I will download the first version and I will not change it. You are able to think and try, before hit the share key, I'm sure.
HOW TO NAME THE PLANE:
You MUST name your plane "000 JetGlider yourname". Please, I spent ours to keep trace off which plane was made by who in the last challenge... use this method. The 3 zeroes made them on top list, and your name made all easy.
EVALUATION CRITERIA:
first examination, HOW IT FLIES controlled by me. I will test them all, taking off and doing stunts, assigning 0 to 20 points for the flight to my discretion. I can assign more planes the same score, it is not a ranking but one vote. If it does not take off, do not go to the second.
Second race, DAREDEVIL under AI control. The first 34 arrived take the first 35 points, the second 34, and so on up to the thirty-fourth, that will take 1 point. From the thirty-fifth onwards, zero points. All those who do not complete the race because they crash, zero points.
Third race, EAGLE PASS under the control of AI. The race consists of 13 rings including the last. TWO points for each one of the first 12 rings, and well TWENTY points if strung also the last, the finish line.
Fourth examination, AS BEAUTIFUL is for me. I judge the structure and coloring. Keep in mind that I like very realistic or very innovative structures, the paintjob I love those very realistics and less the very imaginative ones. Here, too, from zero to 20 points and I can be assigned to multiple planes the same score.
ONLY publish the total, do not ask the individual votes, do not you ever tell them!
As you can see, even if it fails totally one race, there are enough points in the others, if he took the ultimate in all. You have to make choices and strategies.
When challenge will end, leave me some time for the judging, I fear it will be a giant work to do.
You can upvote this if you want, but be fair and kind, do not forget to upvote the other planes if they are beautifull. I will upvote all the entry, and 10 upvote to the winner, 5 to 2nd, 3 to 3rd.

@Baldovino I've built one, but it always fails on the last 30m of the Eagle Pass course. :/ Deltawing design, all wing parts beeing flat-bottom, small fuselage, not much fuel, just one Blasto J15 and it still doesn't fully make it. It looks a little bit like a micro-F-35. :D
@BRuthless chose your design, you must have a strategy. More glider, more racer, or half and half? Wich one bring more points? You must chose. ;)
Does it have to be designed like a glider, with long wings and all that?
@AviownCorp use this
@Benny332D2003 :) read rules, mate... you did not, I think
@Sirstupid ;) nope
