I didn't have much time today, so I decided to do what a lot of people IRL do when they don't have time to build a full plane--just build a glider... However, this does have an engine like a lot of modern gliders, but like most of the modern prop driven gliders, the engine on this folds away (Slide VTOL down). It is best to start off in the air with her, seeing as she only has one gear. Have fun with it!

14.0k ElijtheGeatthanks for the feedback, Yes it doesn't glide quite as well as a normal glider would, so I chose to put an engine on it to get it going. the builder knows his planes best, so I was happy with it, but I guess it can be a bit hard to control if your not the one who built it :) @Vikdesigns9.5 years ago

14.0k ElijtheGeat@Vikdesigns Have you figured out the problem yet?9.5 years ago

14.0k ElijtheGeat@Vikdesigns thank you for your feedback. Where are you having a problem? If you are having trouble taking off, please read the description. This is a glider, it's not meant to takeoff by its self. If this is not the problem that you are having, I'd love to know what is wrong so that I can improve my future planes.9.5 years ago

835 Papaantho3Reminds me of a glider from Microsoft flight simulator x. I'm glad you can't see the pilot in this, because the stock pilot from that game had a bad hair-can and I couldn't figure out if it was a male or female. It always bugged me.9.6 years ago

14.0k ElijtheGeatI'D say so-- at least you get that moment of joy as you pass over the line between silver and gold. Other than that you don't really get any benefits. Strive to be better :) @tominator9.6 years ago

7,745 tominatorYea same here. It's okay constructive criticism is always accepted. At least I know that your a real person. And have an opinion. Btw what is it like to be in gold is it really worth it. I like my little community of people who hang around me in sp9.6 years ago

14.0k ElijtheGeatNo offense taken @tominator , sorry if I sounded all big and mean. I just see it as wrong to tell people to rate your creation. But I don't really mind, after all, my Mother's Day card got like 13 ratings, I only made it because I couldn't secretly go buy a card for my mom, seeing as how she is my driver :)9.6 years ago
