@Nightgems it's close enough on the size I'll take it. If you set the engine power to 100hp it qualifies. If you don't know how to change the engine power I put an explanation in the description. Awesome plane either way though it definitely has the look I was lookin for.
@LieutenantSOT https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/7a5Kh3/Bac-Powerjets-CS110-Chimera I appreciate you still taking it I will try and pay Bette attentive n to that in the future. Sorry about linking you at the last second I haven't had my phone for a couple days.
I uploaded my second entry but I completely forgot to use your download so it isn't a successor. Is there an easy way to fix that? If not I'll just re upload.
@MajorSix no I just downloaded and went. Idk I think uploading can break stuff sometimes. Or maybe it's cause you used shocks which by the way is genius aesthetically but they like to do weird things when you scale them.
Man this community is coming up with too many good challenges. I've got 3 challenge builds in the works right now. Oh well make that 4 I'm in. I'll do a German medium fighter.
@ollielebananiaCFSP That makes me curious then, I assumed that the limitations with running simple planes was mostly in processing power rather than graphical power due to all the Aero calculations. Do you just have a good/optimised processor or am I grossly misunderstanding things? Or just underestimating what you can get to run?
@LieutenantSOT yeah the original one with the wheels is my actual entry. Its a little better than this one performance wise cause it doesn't have a 1000 lb pontoon hanging off the bottom.
@LieutenantSOT thanks a lot. Btw sorry I forgot this was still saved as a successor to your challenge. Don't mean to clutter up your list. Obviously this one isn't another entry haha.
@Skyhawkarmy idk you just gotta mess around with the shapes until it looks the way you want. Use lots of pictures and reference material. There's not really any hard and fast rules or methods. That's what makes this game so awesome! Think of it like Lego. You have to figure out how to use the limited shapes you have to make the unique shapes you want
@Jaspy109 I'm not sure if that's a uniquely British design. If so oh well umm we will say that Japanese spies were stealing British aircraft secrets and they decided they liked that stick design.
@LieutenantSOT My Japanese plane will be a prop fighter but if I finish early I will do a heavy fighter with mixed propulsion. Japanese planes just don't look right without a giant nose cowl.
Just to be clear on weights/ sizes, would you consider the Mitsubishi A6M Zero a medium or light fighter? That's what I'm using as a yardstick for the size and weight but I can scale it up if you think a Zero is too small.
I think I need a good challenge right now. I'll do a Japanese medium fighter. Just double checking jets are fine as long as power and speed is realistic? If so it will be a jet.
Edit: Nevermind the jet thing it wouldn't be realistic since they never actually deployed a jet fighter.
@LieutenantSOT haha okay. I was asking cause I felt iffy on those.
Oh...there's a part limit now....guess I'll just start over...
Sweet thanks! Just out of curiousity was it the switch panel and the buttons that you didn't think were period correct in the cockpit?
@Nightgems it's close enough on the size I'll take it. If you set the engine power to 100hp it qualifies. If you don't know how to change the engine power I put an explanation in the description. Awesome plane either way though it definitely has the look I was lookin for.
I can't believe how many quality builds this challenge spawned. Well done!
@ollielebananiaCFSP oh definitely. I'm just being pedantic.
@ollielebananiaCFSP what if a plane doesn't need ailerons though?
@MintLynx yep that's pretty much what I like. My daily is an 87 Toyota tercel so there you go
I feel like you have very similar taste in cars to me. You keep making my favourite vehicles .
Thanks glad you liked it. I'm working on a 2.0 with higher detail. I know engine models like this are largely useless but I like making them.
@LieutenantSOT okay cool thanks!
Wow thanks! There were some really cool entries.

@Bananek71 yeah I know I just didn't want to have to re paint it. Sorry btw wasn't trying to be a dick.
@Bananek71 well duh I wasn't going to re make the whole plane.
I uploaded my second entry but I completely forgot to use your download so it isn't a successor. Is there an easy way to fix that? If not I'll just re upload.
Why is it painted gold?
@MajorSix no I just downloaded and went. Idk I think uploading can break stuff sometimes. Or maybe it's cause you used shocks which by the way is genius aesthetically but they like to do weird things when you scale them.
Also does it have to be a biplane? There were a number of monoplane fighters in WW1.
@Chrisk1993 can I do a seaplane or does it have to take off from land?
Man this community is coming up with too many good challenges. I've got 3 challenge builds in the works right now. Oh well make that 4 I'm in. I'll do a German medium fighter.
Pssst......I think you missed a connection or 2 in the general engine area. Cool though.
Cool challenge I'll do it.
@superTT yeah man, I agree
@ollielebananiaCFSP That makes me curious then, I assumed that the limitations with running simple planes was mostly in processing power rather than graphical power due to all the Aero calculations.

It is in a video game.
@AWESOMENESS360 meh you'd be surprised what can run on a potato. Although I don't suspect that it would work so well with a 1000 part build.
@MajorSix I'm not sure actually the one I have saved is straight. Maybe I hit an undo before I shared it by accident or something.
Idk why I gave him a helmet he just explodes anyway.
@LieutenantSOT yeah the original one with the wheels is my actual entry. Its a little better than this one performance wise cause it doesn't have a 1000 lb pontoon hanging off the bottom.

Dude your cars are awesome. Im working my butt off trying to get better at car bodies and you're keeping me motivated here!
@PapaKernels thanks i think it's my best plane yet
@Lixcuudis thanks I'm glad someone read it. Thought it might be too wordy haha

@Skyhawkarmy I guess you don't have to but I wanted the points for the description.
@Jaspy109 I'm not sure if that's a uniquely British design. If so oh well umm we will say that Japanese spies were stealing British aircraft secrets and they decided they liked that stick design.
Woohoo my Japanese fighter is done! I'm really proud of it I think it turned out awesome.
Yo put me down for a British Heavy Fighter as well I'm putting the finishing touches on my first entry so I should have time for another one.
@LieutenantSOT My Japanese plane will be a prop fighter but if I finish early I will do a heavy fighter with mixed propulsion. Japanese planes just don't look right without a giant nose cowl.
Do a barrel roll
@LieutenantSOT yeah I'm not doing a Zero copy just using it as a general guide for size. Thanks!
Just to be clear on weights/ sizes, would you consider the Mitsubishi A6M Zero a medium or light fighter? That's what I'm using as a yardstick for the size and weight but I can scale it up if you think a Zero is too small.

Oh nice well it's in my subassembly folder now. @Redisnotsusguys
@Cyan is a Jake Paul noise just a really stupid statement?
@Embo okay cool I thought it was thanks for clearing that up.
How did you make the person a single part?
Mines done. It's almost a plane.
@Embo Yeah. You can't say it on YouTube.
