    @Herpasherpaderpa @wonkapilot The tags says it's fictional. This design is purely imaginative. Though he may of based some aspects of the actual Chinook.

    So much RUSSIA.

  • B-24D WIP 6.5 years ago

    Good job so far. The only things I see that need to be fixed are The wings look a bit too thick as well they need to be moved up towards the top of the plane. As well your fuselage takes a sharp angle upwards. I feel it shouldn't be that sharp. Also your vertical stabilizers look to long and skinny and not short and fat. Those are just things I saw. My advice is to look up blueprints. Please take my advice with a grain of salt understand I only want to help you. I don't want to sound too picky. Once again nice job.

  • Okey dokey bois! What next? (Plz pic!) (OOOH AND PICTURES! WE ALL LOVE PICTURES!!!!!!) 6.5 years ago

  • I Saw Something Strange... 6.5 years ago

    It could of been what is called the Autokinetic effect. Autokinetic effect is a phenomenon of visual perception in which a stationary, small point of light in an otherwise dark or featureless environment appears to move. A more plausible answer is there are some satellites that do orbit in pairs. Check it out.

  • Well done SpaceX 6.5 years ago

    @GreatHenry I don't think you should be telling people how they should spend their money. Shouldn't governments do that instead of private companies? You complain that Musk doesn't spend is money on poverty, but how much do you spend to fight poverty?

  • Tamiya 1/35 T-62A Main Battle Tank. (Pics) 6.5 years ago

    I'm getting into a bit of scale modeling as well. Some questions? I see you have Testors, Enamel or Acrylic? If enamel can Tamiya thinner strip the paint? Also do I need to add a clear coat before applying panel Tamiya panel lines?

  • SimplePlanes Member Rememberance Day 6.6 years ago

    @ForeverPie how did you come aware of Mattangis death?

  • SimplePlanes Member Rememberance Day 6.6 years ago

    Skua was a huge help for me. Any of my designs that wouldn't have worked, he put his time into an made them work. RocketLL in his bio has a reddit link. Possibly contact him to see what's up? I just came onto the site around the time Hypnotoad left so I never really saw any of his builds. Though I'm so glad I got the game before the steam release in Oct of 2015 so I wasn't part of the new user rush.

  • Import Photos Into Builder? 6.6 years ago

    I have it. Mushr00ms mood is very helpful in making anything.

  • Coming soon! 6.6 years ago

    Love the detail put into this. Not trying to be picky but the wing landing gear wheels should be bigger. Overall I can't wait to see this released.

  • Severe Concerns about Jundroo and SR2 6.6 years ago

    SR2 will stand out I believe. Space simulators today don't have the cusomizability that SR2 will have. With SR2, the player won't be stuck with built in parts so creativity goes through the roof.

  • New Scouts Group 6.6 years ago

    I'm a Life Scout Working on my Eagle. I finally got my Eagle project done.

  • I have never done camouflage before.... Which is quite unfortunate. 6.6 years ago

    @JED no that plane is a Brewster Buffalo.

  • Brewster Buffalo boiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii (plz pic livery!) 6.6 years ago

    I like the USAF version however the Fins were the most successful with the Buffalo.

  • What's the crappiest device you've played sp on? 6.6 years ago

    I have and still play SP on a kindle fire gen 2. The only thing is loading times are long and the battery life is short.

  • P-40 Flying Tiger teaser! 6.6 years ago

    Kewl. I like the detail. Part Count?

  • SimpleTips [4] 6.6 years ago

    You should give a link to other tip post if you have any. I noticed a 4 in the title.

  • B-17 G"Quennie" 6.6 years ago

    @phanps thanks.

  • B-17 G"Quennie" 6.6 years ago

    How do you get the clear parts? XML editing?

  • B-17 Teaser ! 6.6 years ago

    The tires should be up more and not stick out that far from the bottom. But still I find this build awesome. I need to redo mine. The nose art is amazing as well.

  • add homing torpedos 6.6 years ago

    You can put this idea into the Uservoice under the STUFF tab. The devs won't find you suggestion in the forums.

  • THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED 6.6 years ago

    @FgFg it just takes time. Enter tournaments. You can get easy points from them and not all winners were high ranking users. My first posts only had a few upvotes, then over time people found those post and upvoted them. I was in the same boat. Though instead of complaining that I wasn't getting much upvotes, I kept trying and building. That's why I have so many upvotes on my B-17.

  • Update 1.8 requests 6.6 years ago

    @FgFg I see you are on IOS so the overload mod won't help. There is no problem with asking the community for parts. That just goes along with being an IOS user. The devs may not have any intention to do these as they are way too busy working on SR2. You can post your ideas in the Uservoice under the stuff tab.

  • Heinkel He 111 6.6 years ago

    Nice detail. The cockpit is amazing. It's nice a round and smooth. However the wings do look a bit thin. Overall nice job. I love the effort and detail put into this. Keep up the good work.

  • Update 1.8 requests 6.6 years ago

    A lot of this you can XML edit. You can scale every single part in the game. As well I believe there is a XML code on bullet caliber. If not there might be bullet mass. Also tracer color, bullet damage, and bullet scale is XML editable. If you can't edit the bullet damage, you can edit a parts health which might help. I do agree with the car engine though. The engine we have right now doesn't look like a car engine. However I don't think we need more weapons. We have already a bunch. Different missiles, rockets, bombs, torpedoes, countermeasures, and guns. We have plenty. Plus SP isn't about blowing stuff up, SP is about teaching it's players about aviation and the basics of aerodynamics. We do have an altimeter, it just doesn't look like an actual one.

  • THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED 6.6 years ago

    @ThePilotDude I agree, However what you said about people getting too caught up in the points is absolutely correct.

  • THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED 6.6 years ago

    @CRJ900Pilot That wouldn't work as the hottest i believe is based off of how many upvotes a plane gets in a certain amount of time. If the plane gets more upvotes in the shortest amount of time, then they get to be at the top of the hottest page.

  • [Poll]What paint shemes for B-17 6.6 years ago

    B is the best paint scheme. Change my mind.

  • Chemistry help 6.6 years ago

    I will try. My bet it has do do something with Nitrogen as there is none in the products.

  • [Important] Update to "I'm Tired of SP, Leaving Forever" 6.7 years ago

    I got PPPPPPPPRANKED.

  • Can I get this color?? 6.7 years ago

    @Wolfieboy1555 you select a part then tap the overload button. The drop down menu on the top lets you sort through the xml sections except I don't know if you can edit color in the overload mod.

  • A BF-109 Teaser... 6.7 years ago

    @AdlerSteiner you have to put in the picture URL and select the front, middle and back of the image. Then you can enable the move tool to move the picture in place.

    @Strikefighter04 Nice. That's cool. Tag me when you are done.
