Amphibious Flying Challenge

26.5k salvador3031  8.9 years ago

This challenge is in two segments, one is compeditive with only 3 winners and one is meeting criteria with infinantly many winners, both consisting of making a Vehicle that can fly in the air, drive on land , and sail on the sea. This plane is an okey example my aircraft carrier is another good example. Reading through this is worth your time you can get 6 garrentee upvotes.

The first part is you making a vehicle that can start at Bandit airport aproach FLY to bandit, land at bandit DRIVE to Yeager (take a right then left after the first bridge.) take off from yeager into the sea and SAIL to the bridge at yeager. I will call this >>>>>>>RR<<<<<<<<. I will be the an doing rr with your plane so it is important to tell me what power and control the plane operates in the land, air, and sea. I have start points all over the course and will be slightly lenent with failures. I most like have to be confident in it's ability. If your plane completes rr you tell me what 5 planes you want upvoted by mentioning me on them. Infinatly many people can win rr and i will test any entry in rr as soon as possible and rr will never end has no stop time can always subment entries.

This will be tested seperately from rr.The second part is me judging it in 3 catagories it will be judged 1-10 points: stability and ability to turn on land,stability and ability to turn on the sea, and its ability to turn in the air and fly with out tilt. speed will not be a factor nor will looks, this is perfromanced based.

It will end Feb the 27, 2 weeks from now and 1st place get 15 upvotes, 2nd 10 , 3rd 5.

To enter a plane it must be a successor and can only have one entry, I will upvote all entries. Can NOT enter in my plane this is an example.

If you need help making it please ask this is very hard challenge involviong an entrierly new concept. The only modding allowed is modded fuel which comes with my plane. To biuld a plane it must steer using rotators like this and be able to turn in the water one way is to use roll to put more of one side of the plane in the water and turn or have verticle wings with pitch to turn, you should know flight. It is very important that the plane has wide wheels that are very far away from each other so it won't roll over same with boats. Having the COMass and COLift on eachother helps a lot. to get it to drive on land you need to turn the trust down for example this plane flies at 100% thrust but drives at 25-30% thrust. Try to use rear landing wheels they have the best suspention.

The first successor is an example plane that i uploaded to show how to write the description and my AF aircraft carrier that can also complete rr as another succesfull plane to help you make your successful plane.

Upvoting this challenge would be aprecciated or leaving a comment talking abot your entry, like I am joining

This challenge is not fast and it is not eassy but it is also equally rewarding for it.

    @salvador3031 Well I wasn't going to use yaw I was going to use the turntable on the landing gear themselves, but it's no biggie I made it work.

    @SteadfastContracting because rotators turn the wheels which let it change direction wuill driving and is less drifty than yaw

    @salvador3031 Oh. Okay. I see it now after two times of reading through. I just wanted to use unbreakable wings. One question: Why do you have to use rotators to steer wheels?
