@Davisplanez Thanks, I'm following you too.

@SledDriver happy new year, I'm following you.

Thanks, @Davisplanez and a very happy new year to you as well.

wow! this is great! btw happy new year!

Thanks! And you :)@SledDriver

@belugasub Thanks, you have a new follower too. Oh, and happy new year.

They are very enjoyable!
I dot see a way of making these builds so fast and so good without some kind of programing XD

Keep up the good work! You have a new follower btw @SledDriver

@belugasub Thanks. Well, I'm a programmer and have done 3d modeling in the past, so I can build a lot faster (and smoother) than most people. No one should feel that they're competing with me or I with them, I'm just here to share my builds for people to enjoy.

Ive beenon simpleplanes longer than you but you have 10 x the ammount of points lol 😂

Amazing how smooth your builds are

Here's a short video showing what happens.

I haven't yet. @SledDriver

@PyrusEnderhunter Did you try scaling this one? Check the center of mass before and after.

Hmm, interesting. I've never had that happened with other builds of mine. @SledDriver

@PyrusEnderhunter Well, I've had it happen. I deleted the build this was happening on, or I could have shown you. Another problem is that if I scale an entire build, the mass distribution goes haywire and what used to fly perfectly now flies very badly or not at all. Try scaling this one. I scaled it down twice, once with "calculate mass" checked and once unchecked, and both times the center of mass moved behind the center of lift and the center of thrust also moved out of line. Maybe it's to do with my system configuration.

@SledDriver I did what you avoid for my latest build, a new tank—nothing fell off.

@PyrusEnderhunter I avoid scaling things whenever possible, especially entire subassemblies or builds. Scaled parts don't behave very well when attaching other parts, so modifying builds becomes harder. I've had problems when mirroring as well, with all the parts on one side losing all their connections when mirrored. Everything looks ok in the designer, but when you enter the sandbox, one entire side falls to pieces.

@SledDriver yes, but perhaps, after all that is done, use XML to scale the entire thing down to say a quarter of its original size?

@PyrusEnderhunter Yeah, the size is a requirement for the smoothness of the generated shapes. At this size, it takes segments 0.25 units thick to make the shapes look smooth, especially the stronger curves. If I used smaller blocks, I'd have to reduce the thickness, and that causes glitches like striped shadows.

Big boi

@dootdootbananabus The SR-72 was, in fact, on my mind when I was designing the side profile. Good eye.

Nope,not anymore

Theres a gold upvote train!

top view:looks sorta like mig25/31
side view:looks kinda like sr72
front view:looks like both of those planes above were combined
