The main fighter plane from Crimson Skies. Due to the lack of pusher props, it is a non-powered plane. It does however make for a great low-speed (80mph) glider after detaching the wheels. This may be my favorite build so far. I will update it once pusher props are introduced or a sufficient glitch can be exploited.

19.3k SkipperBingI've just uploaded an update to this design that is actually powered. Didn't end up using the hidden jet engine but rather a combination of three props for the visual effect of a push prop without the nearly-impossible-to-control speed that a jet engine creates with this design.9.9 years ago

Dev weebabyseamusSo Skip I mave have found a solution. Its a bit tricky, but if you get a med jet engine jammed in the middle, then attach a rear mounted prop engine behind it, then it has enough force to push it to fly and it looks like its a push prop. I built a crude concept on your build, but the COM is too far back with the medium jet engine that it doesnt fly. So the engine has to be pretty far forward to offset the COM past the COL, but it is possible.9.9 years ago

1,217 SmeagolFishNice! I've been waiting for push-props to do more Crimson Skies planes, but looks like you've got the jump on it. Keep up the good work.10.0 years ago
