Part Efficient Aircrafts!
Yep, another PEA.
This time with the Japanese Raiden! I don’t know why, but the J2M’s design as always piqued my interest, so about time I make one for myself.
And to kill two birds with one stone, this J2M3 shall (hopefully) become the first Raiden in Monarchii’s PEA series.

@Majakalona How does one accidentally kamikaze into spongebob tho
@TheUltimatePlaneLover yes
@Majakalona yea
but who spongingboy
Spongebob or smth?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover yaknow how you couldnt understand that no honduh rule?
@Majakalona Who Spongyboy?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover sponging boy died
i kazukamied him (on accedent)
@Majakalona To be fair, it's historically accurate, the J2M had some flight issues at first, so I should probably (eventually) make a final improvement with working flight controls
the guns are red and white
bleeding and coeming
the autopilot doesnt work, it wobbles around, looses elevation, and then meets spongingboy
@Majakalona Well, older devices were built to last, most old devices actually work decently, the issue being people don't like to deal with their slow-ness
@TheUltimatePlaneLover as someone who just has an old iPod touch sitting around, it has Minecraft on it and can run Minecraft (albeit a very old version)
@Majakalona To my knowledge it's potato phones, iPods are below potato phones (as an iPod owner I can confirm)
@TheUltimatePlaneLover
Part efficient?
isn't a part efficient thing supposed to be like it's able to run on a iPod Touch? Or am I misunderstanding it?
@Majakalona Aesthetic accuracy is more important than performance cost
That's (part of) what makes PEAs special
this is more preformace expensive than goldonlajet
I blame the unnecessary details (rounded wingtips)
@TheUltimatePlaneLover hm, play with the dead weight i suppose? that's easily adjustable and then you can reduce mass here and there to have the exact weight you want it to have of sorts
@Monarchii I absolutely can, the issue is actually getting it airborne, and if I can get it airborne, then I have to worry about flipping
@TheUltimatePlaneLover (you can adjust the mass lmao)
@C47skytrain Aight
Underweightness, unfortunately there's little to nothing I can do about that provided you want a decently-flying aircraft, but overpowered engines I can, one of the main issues I'm going through right now is making sure the Me 262 doesn't exceed 600mph in a normal setting (I know the top speed is only like 540 mph but I'm cutting it high)
Also, please avoid overpowered engines and underweightness like the plage. It can ruin a perfectly good plane, and it breaks my heart :(
There are so many planes that I want, but they can only be made so fast. And as well meaning as the creators are, I often find the planes to not be realistic enough. It is quite hard to make super realistic planes, especially without trickery, so I should hold planes and creators that do achieve those standards close. I am grateful for your work, and I wish you good luck :)
@C47skytrain I know, I started making the PEA F4U and it's hard
Ok, though those other corsairs are tough competition
@C47skytrain I'm still gonna make an F4U since we haven't actually gotten any Corsairs dedicated to the PEA series, but I'll add the GeeBee to the queue
2 actually!

@TheUltimatePlaneLover wait, can you make the GeeBee model R? It would be very cool to have. Also, there is already a good F4U on here, I have the link
