A remake of my prototype flies well but for optimum peformance either put the vtol slider just above the top part of the final arrow at the bottom or set all the wings to flat bottom except the very top of the wings... Doesnt go as fast as the origional but is so fun to fly

Mod TheLatentImageThis is really l good man. The blackbird is easily one of my favorite planes and you definitely did it justice here. Sleek and smooth, and fast as hell and she handles great. Excellent work here buddy.9.6 years ago

13.9k ABC123@Zing2000 I just saw your comment on my old plane from a few days ago (haven't been checking). People seem to like your planes a lot, don't worry so much! I think this one is a little too big to try on my device, but it looks quite nice. Anyway, as long as you're having fun, no need to worry about whether or not other people like your planes. I often find that my favorites that I make do poorly on here, while the ones I care less about do well. Such is life! :)9.8 years ago

6,133 thomasjafWing settings. You probably saw that you can adjust your wing from “symmetric”, “semi-symmetric” and “flat-bottom”. If you are wondering what the difference is, IRL this is it. Now how does it affect your plane? As all your wings in SP have the same angle of attack, if your wing have more camber, it will lift more. Meaning: “flat-bottom” lift more than “semi-symmetric” that lift more than “symmetric”. But hold on young designer! I already see you run and change all your designs to “flat bottom”, just don’t. Those options are here to allow you to balance your plane (assumption made here, post on the subreddit if you can prove that it brings more), it will require some testing to choose the right configuration for a leveled flight at nominal speed. Remember, to master this configuration imagine that you suspend your plane with wires attached to the wings, if you increase the camber, you’re pulling harder on the wire (see troubleshooting section).9.8 years ago

6,133 thomasjafHey I don't think you know what the wing setting is! you should use it! It increase the lift of the wing and ith that you can balance your plane a little more (noze heavy etc). You should read this! http://www.reddit.com/r/SimplePlanes/wiki/index9.8 years ago
