Are you planning on making a F-15E?

Sexy plane
@ReinMcDeer OH! And, let me know if that air refueling tanker is going to be released, I have a special spot for that and you in my battalion ;3
@ReinMcDeer Dont forget to pin that list (if you want)
@ThatKindaWeeb Well it's based off my name so I don't mind :v
@ReinMcDeer wow that was way more help than I expected... thanks
You like the callsign?
@ThatKindaWeeb Hmmm... A lot of the way I build comes from how I used to build back then but I can offer a couple guidelines:
- I don't do canopy lines because A) laziness and B) I'm going for a simplistic look
- I use default wings for the same reason
- A trick for default wings is to resize it to 1,.5,.5 (or smaller) to get it more precise; just remember the game calculates its lift as if it were normal size, so don't resize too small or else you get too much lift
- If wings are EXTRA THICC, I use fuselage and angled default wings
- I used to use default landing gear but now I use custom
- I use blueprints and go for 1:1 scale, although I'm not focused on 100% correct dimensions
- I only use smoothing on "glass" and nosecones because 'i'm weird'
- I use default parts as details to save parts (i.e. my launch rails are resized pylons, I use default airbrakes sometimes)
- I put hidden airbrakes that use |Gforce| (|Pitch| on older planes) so they don't turn at 1000 km/h.
- Fuselage cones are your best friend (You can paint 2 colors and adjust size of color)
- If elevators are a weird shape, I use a custom control surface made of default wings (Most WW2 planes)
- For asymmetrical features (i.e. offset gun), I set drag and mass to 0 so the plane doesn't roll on its own (Not always perfect)
Protip: 1 SP fuselage unit = 2 meters
Good luck!
@RainMcDeer can you help me replicate your style (I've also given you a callsign :p)
AWACS Phantom: "Rein 1, engage"
also handling is good.
me loike ur style
RadiumOxide?
@GuyFolk U rite
@ThatKindaWeeb
lol
If Galm 2 was Lennon, Cipher would join him too.
@GuyFolk XD
Galm 2(Cipher): frightened silence
@ThatKindaWeeb
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
John lennon is Pixy confirmed.
@ReinMcDeer
lol true.
awesome build you got there. Saw the fight against the Pixy. It was awesome!!
@ReinMcDeer lol hell of a battle though!
@GuyFolk im pretty sure he's still killed me more than ive killed him :P
@GuyFolk "yo buddy, still alive?"
Oh..
This is the one that fought my AI Pixy and come back to tell the story.
Nice job.
Awesome!
@ReinMcDeer you were close enough!
@UltraLight @EngineerOtaku that's interesting. I just assumed it had something to do with g force because the inlets move down when the plane turns.
@ReinMcDeer yeah, if you think about it it makes sense. At high AoA that up Inlet is like a giant drag paddle in the air. Lowering it allows for more efficient turns and more efficient airflow collection.
Like on takeoff, that isnt typically including high-g pulls, but the inlets go down because you need max power to climb those first few hundred feet(the most dangerous altitude) quickly. You have a high AoA just after rotation because: low speeds + high desired rate of climb + high power = high AoA
