The best handling, do anything and everything, go anywhere, off road, on road chassis in simple planes. It doesn't matter where you drive it it will beat anything in category's of speed, handling, suspension, aircontroll, it's got it all!!! being and 8x8 it's has redicolus amounts of power and suspension to take that power and put it to the ground while still allowing the vechile to handle like a dream, but the biggest part is it is THE ONE AND ONLY!!! Vechile in Simple Planes to have sway bars, and in case you have no clue what those are, they keep real world vechicles suspension from rolling the vechile in curves, with out them, most vechicles will roll on a tight turn at probably 15 to 30mph depending on the vechile, but with them I kid you not this simple planes vechile can take controlled turns at over 270mph, with chassis roll that's probably under 2 degrees, it's not to say it's perfect but It rarely flips and when it does, it's probably because the vechile went airborne in a turn. and it doesn't stop there, not only is it the most and best consistently handling vechile ever, it's got speed and suspension range like you've never seen on such a big and complex vechile. it's too speed it over 309mph and it's able to take a corner (in which it slows to 270 while cornering) at this speed, and it does not flip, it hardly ever even spins out and that's just on road, off road it's a dream, able to take jumps and bumps with ease as yes it's got sway bars but no it's not handicapped in at way for each individual suspension arm still has full range of motion when hitting a bump, therefore making it the best most balanced vechile in all of Simple Planes, and it has aircontroll! it can recover and land even the most poorly or surprising jumps using the simple rule of accelerate to pitch up, break to pitch down and steer into the roll of the vechile begins to roll, EX: if the vechile jumps and begins to roll clockwise, turn right and just like an RC car the vechile will r

@Maximum777 lmao we all are embarrassed by our past selves it's fine lmao 👍👍
@Blobfish21 ya, looking back on it it's not that impressive, it just seems to work, and boy oh boy did I brag about this, I think maybe making semi working swaybars got me a bit too excited about it, anyways ignore past me, my more recent uploads are not this bad... I really did just copy and paste the suspension 4 times and put a nose cone on it lol
It's been about two years since I posted this, I have come a long way, probably time to revisit it and redesign the suspension here to make a really well handling on road 8x8 vehicle of some sort.
Ngl this is kinda bad. Yea there is no roll but that's only because of the stiff suspension and relatively wide body. It looks cool and the suspension is complex but other than that it's not that cool. I know my creations arent that complex but it still doesnt flip at any of the speeds it reaches and it still handles. Still pretty cool though !
@Maximum777
There is a lot of head-scratching designs that don't make any sense, and this one might be one of them.
Basically you are kind of bragging how low your center of gravity is. It is very low, I admit, so good job.
You did a good job replicating the suspension and made a absolute monster out of them.
hahaha,you'll laugh at this thing, It's kinda like the spin tires 8x8, and the things just stupid! It wheelie's and has 4 sets of solid alxe suspension, and the things really tiny, it's probably the smallest most complex thing I've made, I still have to upload it though, I'll Link it in a minute here.
, so I took a look at that Lockheed twister and we'll just look at my other vechicles, I see independent suspension and what looks like rocker biggie, I made a full rocker bogie crawler and it worked really well.
With your skills I think you should be doing more than just conventional suspension. You should try doing outlandish stuff like this and this. Should be a decent challenge to make something that works better than those. If you're interested in doing something similar, I can give you lots of resources for the lockheed twister
Hideous body but brilliant suspension. Kinda like my stuff in a small way. It isn't the only vehicle to use sway bars though. I have seen multiple vehicles that use sway/anti-roll bars but it would be very difficult to find them.
Controlls: Pitch = forward and reverse, Yaw = steering, Break = break, Steering in air = right to roll counter clockwise, left to roll clockwise, Forward/Reverse in air = pitch up/pitch down. Break in air = will make the vechile pitch the opposite direction it is moving once it goes off the jump, EX: if the vechile is pitching up, break and it pitches down, and vise versa. ENJOY!!!
(This one took forever to tune and build)
So... The um... The whole discription didn't fit in the... Ya, I'll re state the controlls since thier cut off.
