@TMach5 you are welcome
Thanks! @Luftwaffe0
Name: Simple BF-110
Me: I CANT EVEN MAKE ONE LIKE THAT
Thanks, @DanDaFreakinMan . I doubt it, I never follow the rules ;-)
Man you LOVE this tournament huh? I think you're winning... in my opinion at least.
Thanks, I’m glad you like it ! @LancasterAce
@TMach5 Oh, thanks alot.
@SodiumChloride here it is
@Mmdben Ah, you want YAW control like this: YeOldBertie
The key is to balance the Center of Mass, Lift and Thrust (pressing the spacebar activates in Windows) This can be done by adding and shifting weight on the centerline of the aircraft. When CoM,L & T are lined up like Bertie and the BF110 you'll get that nice level YAW without rolling.
@TMach5 I know the mods and the usage of these minimized wings , But making the plane move the same with yaw like this plane is what I can't figure out, it just roll slowly to the opposite side, fly this and use the rudder to understand what I mean.
No problem. Thanks, will do, I’ll hopefully make my way there slowly before I die. Haha @TMach5
@Mmdben Oh, no problem. DoubleClick on the wing to open the Part dialog box. From there, you can resize the control surface to increase/decrease it's size. Also, Download the mods I mentioned and this unlisted post: !Magic Wings These are miniaturized full scale wings that can be concealled in any fuselage or wing. With the Magic wings you can focus on styling the aircraft instead of trying to cram wings around other parts.
@SodiumChloride Maybe @TMach5 can tell us how did he get it to work on this plane?
@SodiumChloride but they take a lot of trail and error to make , I wonder if there is an easier way.
@Shnippy Thanks! It's still o.k to lust for upvotes. Keep practicing and Gold/Black Status will come ;-)
@TMach5 Nonononono, I didn't mean the cosmetic one, I meant how did you get the yaw o work , for me even if I tried the default wing or a custom control surface the plane will roll very slowly when you use the rudder.
you used a default wing for the rudder but for me I can't figure out how did you get it to work.
@Mmdben
1. Download and install two mods to customize parts; !OVERLOAD and !FINE TUNER
2. For the Tail Fin, you will need a "Hinge Rotator" and a Cylinder sized to fit the control surface you want to make. i.e. Aileron, Trim etc.
3. In OVERLOAD, set the "disableAircraftCollisions" value to "true" for the hinge and cylinder. This allows the parts to move freely and not lock with other parts. It's especially important for custom landing gears so they can fold into the wings or fuselage.
4. Since most wings are angled, use FINE TUNER to position the X,Y and Z variables to correctly place your hinges.
5. All this is easier said than done, but it's a lot of fun once you've mastered the tools.
6. You can always just rip-off and copy any parts I make and add them to your planes. I don't mind. ;-)
Awesome plane by the way @TMach5
That’s true, I also really don’t care about winning competitions and just do them for fun. It’s also fun to support sp builders 😁. (This and the next part I’m being truly sincere) I’m sorry, I feel ashamed. You are a god and I am a mere mortal. 😔 @TMach5
@TMach5 How did you manage to make the rudder work?
I've looked at thousands of planes trying to fin a working rudder
please tell me how to make it.
You’re not wrong. Once I reached 50,000 upvotes, I stopped caring about winning competitions and focus more on refining my building skills and supporting cool SP bros with their contests. Winning challenges is fun, but building cool planes is better 😁@Shnippy
Please correct me if I’m wrong, and I don’t mean this in any bad way at all, I could very well have just missed something, but wasn’t the limit of guns only four? Again I could have missed something and if I did or I’m wrong, my apologies and just let me know. Thanks.
(Arnie accent) Enter! Come on you can do it! @SodiumChloride
Here you go! @LancasterAce
