The B-47 went through many design changes including wing shape, engine placement, and wheel arrangement. Due to the bicycle wheel arrangement, the B-47 couldn't pivot for takeoff, so the designers mate the plane always sit at the required takeoff rotation

@TheW4terDrop I'm making a B-52 right now. it has a very low power to weight ratio (0.3~0.6) I am using an orthographic image from wikipedia
I see...
Well, just keep up making great planes for great results ^_^
@TheW4terDrop I've had this for almost a year (not the account) and my planes are slowly getting better.
@Avro683Lancaster Ok then.
P.S: welcome to the community, i hope you will be a great builder like me and some many other users :)
@TheW4terDrop I might try, using ones I have found here as a bit of a guide
Can you make the b-52?
@Jetliner101 It was designed to be as close to book and internet pictures while still being flyable. Few of the many bombers I've made actually drop bombs. Really the only ones that do are purpose built experimental ones
