Very good job on the simple-model! Would be awesome if you gave it a navy blue color though - just saying...
As for you burn-out, I feel you. Don't push yourself too hard. Giving yourself a break from this game and check up on it every now and then. It'll help, trust me..
I've been in this road before - I suggest you check it out and dismantle it to understand how the parts work, but in a nutshell, here's what to do.
Ensure that both the main plane and the mini plane can fly by themselves. Otherwise you will loose control when either disconnect.
Make sure that the primary cockpit is on the main plane. Otherwise when you disconnect, you will loose all the fuel and control of the weapons on the main plane. There is a way to make both carry weapons, however you will need to modify it with an infinitely long winch of sorts, but the weapon aiming will always rely on the main cockpit part.... So far I have not tested this...
Put a camera on the mini plane if you wish to use it individually. (multiple ones for cockpit view / external view)
You will need to set an Activitongroup on the wing control surfaces and gyros to act as autopilot for the main and small planes..
If you intend to recover the small plane - Magnets are your friend.
I hope this helps. Your idea is pretty good! Would love to see more Parasite fighter projects on simpleplanes :)
What I suggest is to use the overload mod to change the mass-scale in order to balance the weight of the plane (it is currently 9,060Kg overweight). Which is why the engine power is very high to compensate.
However also note that you would need to adjust the drag-scale (also using overload mod), which can also slow down your plane, even if you make the plane very light.
I hope this has been of help. I am looking forward to your future builds :)
Very good build. Reminds me a lot of my older builds! keep it up!
As for the plane is tilting because of the antenna, which is making the plane heavier on the right side. To fix it, you will need to set its mass and drag scale to 0 using the overload mod or text editor/ or remove it entirely.
@JuanNotAnAlt the su-27 did not have thrust vectoring. That would be later models from the Sukhoi family. I wish to implement fly-by-wire, but I still haven't learn to work it out..
As for custom wings It's something i'm not very fond of to be honest. It tends to make wings look blocky or messy unless you make it perfect... I'd rather keep it simple but that's me...
@EngineerOtaku Should have done my research first! Good job xD!

Pretty good model! A little cleanup on the control surfaces would have given this plane wonders!
Awesome design! fun to fly!
Recommend you revisit this one the devs release the Fusalage slice mechanic! Make it sleeker ;)

what's up with this??
Interesting design! Keep it up
Will this be released soon heavy psychotic breathing
+10THISSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS!!!!
+4Must have had a reserve of sodium...
+1@JuanNotAnAlt Nothing I can do... sorry... 🤷
Made me laugh... you get an upvote xD
+2@JuanNotAnAlt Here you go
@JuanNotAnAlt Do you need to upload an aircraft with a screenshot instead of the builder view?
Very good design! Liking the fact you didn't try to complicate it and kept it simple! Keep it up!
For some reason the plane is falling apart on tight turns.
As for gears, I would recommend making them from scratch - They'd look better :)
+1@JuanNotAnAlt Depends what you need, hit me up on discord
@JuanNotAnAlt whoops! I missed it!! Fixing it...
+1Thanks for pointing it out :)
Many Mig-21s lately...
Very good work! Keep it up!!
Amazing work!! Keep it up!!!
@JuanNotAnAlt Very old game from my childhood
@JuanNotAnAlt Got discord. Feel free to find me on the Simpleplanes Discord servers, you'll find me.
+1@EternalDarkness Thank you :)
Liking its simplicity! Keep it up!!
@EternalDarkness - Kindly remove this plane from successor-ship
Very good model work! Keep it up!

+1now THAT is a proper Checkmate! Amazing Work!!
Reminds me of my very very early work. Keep building and keep improving :)
Gorgeous design!!! I wonder why the wings have air intakes additional when you got a big one for the engine....
The Centre of thrust is just way too high. It would be impossible to fix it without remodelling the plane.
Suggestions:
- Lower the position of the engines. Set the Centre of thrust closer to the main body.
The design is pretty cool though!! Reminds me a lot of my B797 BWB.
Gorgeous plane!! Keep up the good work :)!!
+2Reminds me a lot of the F-19 Stealth Fighter
Reminds me a lot of the Royal Space Force anime aircraft! This deserves a remake! *Aggressive scribbles
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY UPVOTE!! ALL OF IT!!!
+10Very interesting design! Not my cup of tea though still a fun flyer have to admit..
+1Very good build. Reminds me a lot of my older builds! keep it up!

@Tang0five Thanks for the advice! Helped a lot!

Thanks for your criticism :)
+3@JuanNotAnAlt Thanks, still updating details lol
Please, try it out, and let me know what you think
Nice try! Keep up the good work :)
+1@LightningTreeSavor would be awesome, but no.
it's Light Tactical Aircraft [Legkij Takticheskie Samolyet]
+1Gorgeous plane!!! This deserves sooo many more Upvotes!!
+1This is gorgeous! Keep it up!!!!
@KfcGaming This project was never realised. Further details in Mustard's youtube video available above.
+1@KfcGaming Do you mean in-game or real-life?
Good try!! Keep it up!
+1Have done the su-75 myself, so I understand the challenges in building one...
I SEE INTRUMENTATION GAUGES!
I SEE INTERACTABLE CONTROLS!
Will these be in the base game? (blinking eyes of hope)
+8@Xx24reminder Beats me... I'm presuming there's a reason, (ex. design number) but don't know... Interesting topic to research!!
+1@Xx24reminder That would be the T-50 / SU-57 Felon, Not the T-75 / SU-75 Checkmate. 2 Different planes.
@MuizTheMobileFriendly It took me a while to see it but put a smile on my face as well :D
