Challenge-OP-Moebius
This might be my best design to this day.
the design:
-was inspired by a moebius loop
-keeps rotating during flight
-has fancy moving lights on it
-possible advantages of this shape might be
=> improved stealth capabiiities
=> better sensor/radar range
=> battle damage is distributed evenly
=> reduced drag because there is only one surface all around the aircraft
the controls:
-the aircraft savely transfers from vertical to horicontal by itself.
-don t interfere with the inputcontrols to much during transition, this might cause unstable flight behavior.
Transition is completed at 400 mph.
=> AG8
gives you blinking red lights on the back for orientation
(turning fuselage can be a little bit confusing sometimes)
=>AG1-4
give you control of four different autoguns
1 big spread short distance
4 small spread long distance
-regular flight inputs behave normal
-procedure for takeoff
=> give some throttle
(throttle is linked to groundspeed. 100% equal 800mph)
(setting throttle to zero will start a controlled decent)
=> retract LandingGear
(extending LandingGear during flight will start the transition to vertical mode)
-procedure for landing
=>extend LandingGear
(the aircraft will slow down)
=>reduce throttle to zero below 200 mph
(aircraft will start a slow decent)
the weapons:
-the four autoguns take care of everything you might encounter.
-select your target and fire guns
-easily takes out any ship
-convoys can be a little tricky depending on your speed and distance
-effectiv on 10 miles
-360 degre lock and engage angle
This aircraft is OP in every way i could think of.
-The controls are pritty sophisticated.
-The weapons are on a different level and beyond current capabilities.
-Its close to indestructible.
-the apearance with a rotating fuselage is also highly uncommon.
Lore
In a far away future this might be a combat aircraft fighting for airdominance.
The green lights are possibly caused by a protctive energy shield.
The powerful engines might be fit for interstellar travel.
Enjoy

This is truly amazing. I really like this plane. (Plane? Or ufo)
Here are your results:
Look-9/10 (really cool)
Agility-6/10 (not so agile, but bonus points for a very nice flight mode.)
Coolness-5/5
Quality-4/5
Weapons-7/10 (auto guns are nice, but a couple missiles would be good too)
Extra-10/10 (amazing design)
Total-41/50
Good job, and thanks for participating!
Please pin this comment.
@TheMouse i will try to implement some improvements. I will upload it till monday
@Galeo
Thanks ;)
@TheMouse sure i will upload a seperate subassy for you
Hey, do you think you could remove the auto aim for me to use? I have seen many auto aim ssytems on the site, but I really like how yours works. I have tried to remove it from this, but with no success. (I may use it for the project)
@CrestelAeronautics thanks. looks cool and i am glad you like it
Mobius, that’s my first thought when seeing this
And my Mac is very fucky wucky
@Graingy it flies well on linux with outdated hardware ;-)
Well, I don't trust it on my computer anyhow.
Nice sculpting.
@TheMouse thanks for the good rating. I am working on a doomsday-missile-launch-system. Maybe i will upload a version equiped with it. I will have to reduce some parts inorder to do so. The Beaconlights will have to go
@Graingy the engine configuration is not build for efficiency. its build for performance. Thats what causes the high performance cost
@Noname918181818181818181 that was what i intended. thanks
@TheMouse thanks
@TheMouse My iPad has plot armor
It's been a while since I've seen this kind of weird shaped aircraft, the best part is it's handmade as well! I can run this pretty easily, and it flies so well lmao, also it's so trippy when it rotates, like it's going inside and out
@TheUltimatePlaneLover
I doubt it. My computer was having trouble with it.
@TheMouse I can probably run it on my iPad lol
Not at my Mac.
Besides, the performance cost looks a tad high
@TheUltimatePlaneLover
If you got a computer tho, you really should try this. Its amazing.
@TheMouse I SEE COMPETITION, I MUST DEFEND MY HONOR
@TheUltimatePlaneLover
It appears you need to step up your game a bit. We just got a new entry, and it is amazing tbh.
@TheMouse thanks
This is a very cool looking design. I will look at it shortly.
@Graingy thanks, but why can you not test it?
