@PlanesOfOld Actually I started on a larger project last night of a B-1. Main fuselage and engines are about done so that should be up either tonight or tomorrow morning. It's quite big, about the size of @WalrusAircraft Bear and only about 30 parts so far.
@IMDABEST With great difficulty! Throttle up to 100% and use the VTOL slider to change the blades pitch angle to create lift. It has a tendency to top over though so takes a bit of getting used too. Use the pitch and roll controls to move about or adjust positionm
@Cjedwards If you over throttle and under pitch the engine will over speed. If you over pitch the engine will lose speed. If you over speed just increase the pitch but don't forget you won't get any power from the engines with a pitch of 90%+ so reduce the power. Also making the prop length and thickness creates more drag on the props so reduces overspeed.
@kikasshes I'll release a new one and add some trim tabs to the tail for pitch. The problem you'll have is that I'll need to use the VTOL slider to control them so no manual pitch available. You might need to set the propeller pitch to the sweet spot by default to get your top speed and suffer with a slower takeoff.
@Andrewgarrison the ability to connect them onto the plane without using the default connection points on the end. I had to connect a wing to the nacelle first then the unit onto the plane. Or I had to put the cockpit onto the nacelle and connect the rest of the plane to it. The ability to connect anything to the outside of the fuselage block only works one way.
@WalrusAircraft How are you finding the engine setup on this in terms of over speeding? I have the same 4 large prop setup for a Connie and at 75% pitch the engines overspeed at about 75 to 80% power. I'll post the plane too.
@PuhBuhGuh from the south runway you need to fly straight on and it should appear slightly to the right after about a minute at 500mph, less the faster you go. It might take another minute to get there. Once there land and tag the location so you can respond there.
@PlanesOfOld I'm sure you can still sign up for it after it's released...I think. Just find the old sticky post a few pages down the reddit for the link.
Looks excellent. i can run it on my Mac but it is a bit big. I'm concerned though that it only has about 20 seconds worth of fuel, but nothing a few modded fuel tanks can't fix.
I finally got to fly it, and it's awesome. Such lovely angles and great work on the fuselage. I know how hard it is the get it right as I have made one of this style myself which as you know I haven't released yet. BTW that plane is the same size as this, just measured it, I might see what they look like parked next to each other when the new props are available.
It is a bit laggy, I just tried it, makes it difficult to handle. I'll give it a proper go tomorrow, if I get up early enough I'll try it in the morning.
@MaxTeoZ When I flew the plane I noticed how awesome the wing and engine setup was but I guess I forgot to mention this in my comment so I do apologise.
@aircraftarsenal123 That's a fair shout. I guess I jumped straight in with the constructive criticism and forgot to mention what's good about it. I can see that MaxTeoZ is a great and fast upcoming builder which is nice to see and I feel it's my duty as a long standing member of the game who's suggestions are usually listened too, to write these types of comments to help them become even better. In truth I'm just sharing my experience.
It needs some work, you need to seriously reduce the part count to make it more compatible, you'll get more people able to use it. Also, it has some glitches like a wing part falling off the left wing, dodgy yawing at takeoff and it is nose heavy during flight.
Nice work on the wings. I had to look at my SU-37 and this plane over and over because I could swear it is a predecessor, never the less it's a good job so deserves 5 stars.

@PlanesOfOld No problem

@TomTheBuilder No problem, I'm glad you like you.
Nice
Congrats on...obsidian I think.
@Spikerya Certainly, I've never made one yet but shouldn't be too hard, I'll start working on it tonight.
Lol @Ctracerx2 no, you are the first.

You might need to set the propeller pitch to the sweet spot by default to get your top speed and suffer with a slower takeoff.
@Spikerya No slays, just your standard flaps. You'll still need to make your own at this point.
@WalrusAircraft Damn that looks handsome on the new map.
Heave ho!
Spot on

@Jettison It's in beta for testing to make sure their aren't any unnoticed bugs.

@Beastmode26 A beta has been released for iOS but it has to go through the Appstore so I guess another couple of days and you should get it.

Nice.
@JMicah4 I exaggerated a bit, it's not really active, but I like to think so. There is a volcano in the middle of the map.

@exumer it a new part which has also been modded.
Looks excellent. i can run it on my Mac but it is a bit big. I'm concerned though that it only has about 20 seconds worth of fuel, but nothing a few modded fuel tanks can't fix.
Awesome work again, I like your fictional stunt planes.

Nice work.
@WalrusAircraft Yeah, Kev made specific turbo props with the A400M in mind so they should be perfect. Otherwise she is mostly ready.
I think I could fit a few of these in my cargo plane.
It is a bit laggy, I just tried it, makes it difficult to handle. I'll give it a proper go tomorrow, if I get up early enough I'll try it in the morning.
I can't wait to try this tomorrow after work. I think it might kill my phone if I try it now.
Good modifications.
It broke my phone...this thing is incredible.
Really awesome work, handles superbly. I also like the detail I'm the gears.
Looks cool
Ooo that's very nice. You are a master of intricate wing part detail, and it really pays off. It also flies beautifully.

I like. But those tables need to be bolted down better, all my passengers are bruised and battled...which could be partly to do with my flying.
lol

@BritishNarwhal Arnold = Legend
Gorgeous

Johnny 5 on steroids. Looks great nut doesn't do anything. I won't deprive you of 5 stars though as clearly a lot of effort was put into making this.
Great plane. Not only looks good but also it has great pitch control for stunting with.
Nice one
I love the design and the moving parts. It was really fun to glide in too and the engine looks great.
Looks great but it's a bit big and lags on my mac.
