Tailsitter Challenge (my first challenge)
Hello y'all, here is my first challenge:
THE TAILSITTER CHALLENGE!
As the name suggests you must make a tailsitter!
RULES:
XML is allowed (includes infinite fuel, structural wings, negative mass ONLY IF I ALLOW IT, Funky Trees, etc)
Only Android compatible mods are allowed (Fire-and-forget guardian, Hispaniola 20mm, etc)
No unrealistic weapons like dimensional tearing nukes
No more than 800 parts
Can use any engine
MUST BE A SUCCESSOR
GRADING / POINTS
You can get a total of 450 points in this challenge. They can be obtained as follows:
Logicality (50 points max): Is it logical? I'll be judging your plane's logicality based upon how logical your craft would be in the real world. If your plane could be built in the real world, then you're good. Note that infinite fuel is an exception: You can use infinite fuel without harming your score.
Performance (200 points max): As always, I'll score performance by trying your plane out, and seeing how realistically it handles in flight. For example, is the stall speed, max airspeed, maneuverability, acceleration, deceleration and climb rate realistic?
Appearance (75 points max): I will rate appearance based on, well, appearance. Does it look like a pile of trash stuck together with flex tape or does it actually look nice?
Features (125 points max): I'll rate features by checking out what special features your aircraft has. Examples include:
Funky Trees stuff (i.e. Autopilot, automatic ejector seat, etc)
Custom wings
Custom Landing gear
Custom cockpit

@NexusGaming so...... whos the winner?
@RandomDisplay what is it, i may allow it depending on what it is. it BETTER not be a helicopter though (exceptions: Rotary Rocket Roton, etc)
@NexusGaming ok, i have an idea about that
@SonicManiaOVA yes
@RandomDisplay sort of, it needs to fly like a plane too
so, is hover ok?
Is the deadline still March 5th 2021?
I was actually working on one originally because of Mustards new video on the C450 Coléoptère.

@THICCtheCHICK oki
im in
@NexusGaming I made some good fuselage art for both of me challenges and basically no one joined, it took me a solid 30-60 minutes to complete, so wasn't worth it.
@NexusGaming i might entering this challenge
@PapaKernels yeah true, once i did a challenge and nobody entered, probably it's because of my fuselage art
@NexusGaming I'll keep it in mind. Just be glad you have such a high amount of people already joining, my challenges barely get 3.
