@ChiChiWerx @edensk @dTitanplanesb Right, that's what it was. My mistake.
.
Yeah it was completely on accident but as soon as it started doing that when test flying I went, "I have to keep it this way." Sadly the rudder doesn't seem to have the authority it needs to roll the plane at high AoA?
.
I recommend doing the pull-unload-roll strategy too.
@ChrisPy I'm extremely harsh on myself so that's why.
.
SS seemed to be okay with what I did but I still felt like crap. Should've just not uploaded in the first place
@MethaManAerospace I dunno lol
.
If you feel like fixing it up to fly the way you think it should be my guest. Might need to rebuild parts of the plane though
@ChiChiWerx Sheer dumb luck, probably. I thought it was too fast honestly, because I'd still be in the high 300-low 400kt range at 40% power while flying around 10k ft and lower
@ChiChiWerx No...not really. Stabilators just have Pitch+Trim but a range of +/- 5 degrees. That's not even funky trees except the first bit. Just XML tweaking.
.
Primary engines and the afterburners are just setup on activate 2. Big engines up front turn on from group 2 but have no power multiplier to simulate spool up (an idea I lifted from Asteroidbook's F-5E, so credit to them). No complex FT involved; just me actually trying to pay attention to more technical data than just size and weight dimensions. Getting good, to borrow internet kiddie language.
.
@DarkMarble1 Uhm...please don't do that lol but thanks; second Soviet bomber I've done and I ain't stopping here.
@DarkMarble1 You hurt me if you still think I give a crap about my stuff being taken and tweaked.
.
Hell I don't even care if people straight up steal my work because I know they'll get the bonk eventually lol I got other things in life to take seriously than this game
Just to point out what the heck Sky Crawlers is;
. Sky Crawlers involves ambiguously cloned/genetically engineered teenagers engaging in corporation-sponsored combat to avoid world nations fighting a real war amongst one another.
.
Yeah pretty f-worded up if you really think about it.
@WholeLottaBread Yeah no seriously this beats any trash I can come up with all day. At least you didn't do something stupid like have flaps and swing wing on the same VTOL control (my MiG-23 has both on VTOL down, which I thought was clever but really it's just not good idea.)
.
Well done. Only thing it could use is a neat paintjob.
@ChiChiWerx I'll keep that in mind. This is the first plane of this scale and type I'm working with, so any advice is welcome. I might use this more on large planes than my usual fighters, but thanks.
.
@Dima7274 Hmm...I debated using a larger multiplier. Should've gone with my gut then. Ah well, lessons for next time.
@Dima7274 I swear I set it the same as the default cleaver. :/ Those things have explosionForce value of 1.8, and that's what I put for the interceptors.
@asteroidbook345 Wait...there was paint in Alpha era?
.
Hardly any of my builds, especially early on, could go Mach 1 or above. So...not a huge loss. Besides so much else of this thing ain't 'in-spec' with reality so... X)
.
I kinda just decided to make it an F-16 while putting it together, but I'm glad the effort I did put in worked out.
.
Three? I swear there's only two engines...I thought I hid the second one pretty cleverly tbh.
.
I'll happily take 90%, I mean that's an A Grade in most places so I guess I got something right lol Will this be on the test tho? jkjk

Oooo, am interested :)

@TurtlesThatFly Dang, that looks pretty cool. Shame friend

@Mrfoxus okie. iz fin
@asteroidbook345 No one got mad, just pointed out something I didn't think about. I'm the one that went on a giant guilt-trip.
@Mrfoxus Check out Wholelottabread's (Diloph) MiG-23. That's a good candidate too
@EnzoDiazUnofficial Honestly I kinda regret making this now
@AWESOMENESS360 okie I asked them on their 787 gold build. we'll see what happens
@AWESOMENESS360 Hence the bolded text at the top of the description.
.
Bummer. :/ Maybe I should take this down out of respect for them.
@Nerfaddict Don't take up 30-40 comments worth of space next time, please.

Holy crap, lay off the memey spam lol
Friend Foxu :)
@MethaManAerospace I dunno lol

I have no idea if I did the process right lol
.
Yes, das me I swear mods
Souka, if you want my blueprint to use in judging just let me know on Discord. :)
To whoever is judging the challenge, If you want the blueprint I used I can send it on that one website
This is a quality memey post right here.

@Astro12 YES! THANK YOU! Someone else that knows this!
.
That's so freaking annoying to deal with.
@SimplyPlain Pssh, your work is FAR better than the garbage I put out, but thanks.
@DarkMarble1 Well those people aren't the ones who've made the base build, so...their loss l o l~
@DarkMarble1 You hurt me if you still think I give a crap about my stuff being taken and tweaked.

Yeah pretty f-worded up if you really think about it.
@DarkMarble1 I feel that
Hey buddy :)
@WholeLottaBread Yeah no seriously this beats any trash I can come up with all day. At least you didn't do something stupid like have flaps and swing wing on the same VTOL control (my MiG-23 has both on VTOL down, which I thought was clever but really it's just not good idea.)

Beats the snot out of my MiG-23, and I haven't even tried this one yet lol
.
Excellent job, friend. :)
@SyntheticL can you not see them?
Good, clean, simple. Needs trim control but that's easy to add in myself. Beautifully well done at such a low part cost. :)
@InsertNameHere00 There's ways around it. I'm rebuilding the wings anyway so no big loss.
@THEYE Ye, just thought it'd make a good photo op

@RandomUser09 wut
Actually...the Tu-128 does exist technically.
.
Already looks promising. What're the red things?
Hey asteroid, would you be alright if I took the FT for the tail and dorsal turrets to use on my Tu-16 build? I'll be sure to credit if I do.

@MRpingouin @WarHawk95 The power of physics and hydrodynamics, friends

If a boat of cardboard can float, so could a glass boat.
We did it

We've reached the peak of SimplePlanes building
@SyntheticL hm, will take a look
@Ruvien0Republic0Officer not drowning

rising from the depths
@Tookan lol
@Ruskiwaffle1991 Have fun with the game when you do get it. :)
@KobzeR I'd disagree, but thank you.
