Yes it was a serious squeeze, but I made it.
@captainhall
@AircraftoftheRedStar nice work! Well done for getting it in lol
It is done my man! Hope you enjoy it!
@captainhall
Thank you.
@captainhall
@AircraftoftheRedStar that's is fine. It'll take me a few days to judge all of the aircraft.m anyway. I'll mark the challenge as closed though
I possibly will need one more day, or either you can accept it tomorrow. I have to attend my older brother’s graduation which will most likely take up the rest of the day. The aircraft is finished, just need to edit some settings on the gyroscope and write a description.
@captainhall
My Super Tupolev is completed
@AircraftoftheRedStar that's perfect
No thanks. I’m am so close to finishing it. It’s not that it has a TON of decorations, it just is an incredibly weird shape to reconstruct. And also this is my first time making double-bogie bicycle landing gear. I will work extremely hard this week and try and get it and just a regular forum teaser out by this weekend.
@captainhall
@AircraftoftheRedStar I'm going to keep the extended deadline of June 7 as other people have already submitted theirs and are awaiting the answers. You could release a low part version for this challenge???
@Mustang51 yes it counts. As long as an actual aircraft was never built
I might need you to delay it another week because this double-bogie bicycle landing gear I'm doing is very hard, and I also am going to create a cinematic teaser.
@captainhall
Challenge accepted))))))))))))))))))))
@captainhall does it count as a replica of its something that was designed but never built?
@captainhall sure thing!
@AircraftoftheRedStar, @ProjectTank, and @Mustang51. I have delayed the due date by a week for you. Can't wait to see your entries!
Hello everyone. I have decided to delay the challenge due date to June 7 - an extra week to allow some participants to finish their aircraft without an extension.
Happy building!
Captainhall
@Alta2809 good to be of service!

Sorry it is taking long for the Super Tupolev to be finished
@asteroidbook345 this is perfect 👌🏻
