Not impressive? HAH! Nice joke.
@EternalDarkness
@dunodisko12 that's quite unusual. However, this build is not particularly impressive to begin with, and I'm not currently in position to investigate the issue.
I think it broke over the years. Whenever I download on mobile it’s just a mound of fuselages (as if they’ve all been reverted to their default shape)
@EternalDarkness ok 👍🏻
@MlgNoob the Empire State Building? It was obviously a copy of the one made by another user. Same part count, same size, same color.
This is good
And why you ban building what i made???!
@ESIOTROT121 canisters would contain some sort of fire retardant chemical. You throw them into the fire, they crack due to heat, and spread a foamy chemical.
Np
@Lightsaber70 thank you buddy
Amazing job once again
@Davisplanez thanks
funny
@Othawne @jlewisifer thanks guys
Love the concept of an ultra lite! Beautifully built!
Lovely!
@Dynimerous in Overload, go to "JointRotator", add a new line, and write "disableBaseMesh", and "True"
@jamesPLANESii ok thanks, i'll try that
You open overload, do a new thing and say something like disableBaseMesh (forgotten exact words) and do "True". @Dynimerous
Ok I've always wondered. How do you make rotators and hinges that actually work, but look like the free spin? Like here, for the control surfaces, they look like the the small, free-spin ones, but they are functional.
@PhantomBladeCorp yes
Awesome! Finally we have another fixed wing aircraft to fight the fires!
@EternalDarkness Np :D
@Sparrow007 thanks
Nice build! Very cute plane.
@Cedy117 lol thanks. I haven't made one since M.Corp became a thing
