@dan242 You get it to fly yet?
@dan242 Ok then. give it a shot. I don't plan to.
@Shipmaster,maby but the engeins don't really matter unless it's volt
@dan242 Sure. I think it has something to do with where the engines are.
Cuse it will only take 5 mins
So if it doesn't fly can I make it fly and give you credit for the design?
@dan242 BTW I followed you to help you. I do think you build good stuff.
@dan242 Did you fly it because it doesn't fly.
Aiy dude that's good
Even with that, i really think you should. And im glad to have a positive impact @Shipmaster
@hadesrocksz I don't know about that... I really am just amateur leveled in plane building skills. But it means a lot to have a silver member tell me that.
Yhea, it may take a while to get notticed, i got lucky, tho, you definetley deserve more though @Shipmaster
@hadesrocksz Ok. I can't believe I have as many points as I do. A week and a 1/2 ago I only had 200 from 10 months of being in the community.
Hmm, maybe a mig? @Shipmaster
Mate @Shipmaster
@hadesrocksz Thanks. I'm thinking weapons and some finishing work and I will be done with this one. What should I make next???
Just 1 thing... what does "m8" mean.
Cool work m8
