PART-EFFICIENT AIRCRAFTS!!!!!!


fwk this, fwk that, FWK THIS AIRSHIP AGHH

ahem, anyway... i wholly helly despise this Airship... well, not hate it in a sense that it's British, more so because i can't use rudders/wings because y'know, slip.(and because of the challenge too)

so i wanna yeet this block(or sorry, cylinder... sausage.) of metallic silver across the room, but atleast she is per technical a proof-of-concept i made that uses PID and sum to ascend/descend, still though, agh.


R101 was one of a pair of British rigid airships completed in 1929 as part of the Imperial Airship Scheme, a British government programme to develop civil airships capable of service on long-distance routes within the British Empire. It was designed and built by an Air Ministry–appointed team and was effectively in competition with the government-funded but privately designed and built R100. When built, it was the world's largest flying craft at 731 ft (223 m) in length, and it was not surpassed by another hydrogen-filled rigid airship until the LZ 129 Hindenburg was launched seven years later.

[ Controls ]

  • Throttle : Forward
  • Yaw : Turning(don't even bother, it slips like a damn banana in the air)
  • Trim : Ascend/Descend

[ Guidelines ]

just fly, I don't even wanna bother... alright fine.

[ Flight ]

  • Throttle 100%, Trim to change altitude, yaw to turnaturn

[ Landing ]

  • nah.

[ Armaments ]

  • british
  • uhh... idk, are british not a threat enough?

[ Notes ]

  • as a concept, it works, as a challenge build? shyte.
  • had intended to use airbrakes to correct slip but... it doesn't work like i want it to, oh well.

Free to use!

if ya want to make an airbase, or maybe make an airwing for a carrier, or maybe to help battleships lead their shells, you can add and use any of my planes (unless you claim them as your own creation, i will damp your pillows if you do.)


Want More Part-Efficient Aircrafts?

come along come along! we(yes, we.) have a lot of low part, simple, and realistic performing aircrafts for all to use and fight against! light performance cost and AI-spawnable, there's no reason not to! we have the little beloved Fuchs, the graceful Muromets, and... a lot of obscure aircrafts... ANYWAY COME JOIN US!!

P.S. if you want to throw in an idea, maybe a plane, a ship, anything really(I even got an interdimensional interplanetary vacuum cleaner).. go do it, I'll pick it up if i find the idea interesting enough.

    @IslandSinker well, PID and some sum(X) function and stuff, basically it'll hold itself on a certain altitude and this altitude is change-able with the trim, open up the variables tab, the FT code's there

    for me, it actually flies quite nice...
    how did this even ascend properly like a real airship??? I wanna do something like a replica of the Hindenburg (not burning) but idk because SimplePlanes only has physics for heavier-than-air aircrafts and not lighter-than-air aircrafts.

    @Monarchii The air defences will never see it coming!
    The only sign it ever did was the total mess of their rear it left behind.

    F-22 Raptor!
    It's more fun to imagine it was named after dinosaurs.
    I originally thought that, and I still chose to believe.
