(CLOSED).SP Ultralight Challenge
Updated rules on desc
My First Challenge! (excluding the SPEEED Challenge...)
Please search ultralight plane examples
OK, light aircraft are always fun, so ULTRALIGHT should be even more, right? I have no idea, I've never flown one of these, but on simpleplanes it must be true.
Ok, here it is
RULES
NEED TO BE A SUCCESSOR
Only ultralight helicopters and ultralight planes
Fictional planes are allowed
NO Mods,Only fine tuner and XML
Maximum weight: 300 kg (661 lbs, amiricans)
It can be surpassed if it is a replica, but it must conform to the real plane.
Maximum engine power: 180 hp
Jett rules on desc, eletric planes alowed
It needs to have the at least the tail "structure" exposed, although some security coverage is allowed (if its inside weight limit)
It shouldn't exceed 350 parts, otherwise I won't be able to test it
Details will have less value because that
Must be on SP scale
Old builds allowed, but must change weight if not in limit
Max speed: 150 kph (105 mph, amiricans)
DON'T use other people's planes, that's not cool!
Should look like a Ultralight
Do not modify the massScale too much
Points

I announce that I will update the rules as I will basically be required to do so.
New Rules:
It should look like an ultralight.
Don't modify the mass scale too much
Airplanes like a CriCri are allowed, but they will receive less points for details.
Jets are semi-allowed because they have to be VERY small and very low power.
@Silentrider I am really sorry
Ah man i wanna join but im too late:(
@Aviator01 Autogyros are semi-allowed, I don't know enough about them to let them be fully allowed., and i didnt see any twin engine ultralight, soo i think 25- 50 hp
@DragoransEscarti What are the rules for engine power if you have multiple engines? And are autogyros allowed?
@DragoransEscarti Ok, I hope I can find time to enter.
@jinsatgat You will be disqualified as soon as I find out, don't do that
XMI? ok
massScale|0
@Aviator01 Sorry, maybe I'll give you 3 more days, but I can't go any further than that.
Can you extend the deadline? I want to participate but I have a lot to do before I can get to this and I don’t know if I can find time to do this.
@Rakoval500k oh, ok
I suggest you to allow jet engines for two reasons:
1 - they are very good for simulating propwash of the wings and control surfaces(check newest JamesPLANESii builds)
2 - IRL there is jet-powered ultralights, like jet-powered variant of Cri-Cri ultralight plane...
Ok I’m in
I’m in.
@Reefoi
Think of a P-51 With the cockpit glass removed
Also, please do not reduce massScale on XML
alright im in
Wait what's open top?
Is it like a biplane
I'm joining
alright @DragoransEscarti
@Thecatbaron
@Chancey21
Only 400, 450 no.
I will extend it to the 10th
Would 450 parts be acceptable? 350 is a bit on the low side tbh
January 7th is not enough time
Im in! Haven't made one sence my kitfox and that wasn't exactly an ultralight.
@Shippy456 No, its my first Challenge and i forgot that sorry lmao
