@Eeveemaybe your build is sadly a bit too simple for the challenge. Would recommend you read through the challenge requirements and try again. Don't need to make anything complex, but at least put some effort into it.
@SodiumChloride @232287168147825
the weight rules are NOT for the base game parts but for any additional dead weight added or removed mass scale using xml codes.
I have added this rule to make it challenging for people intending to make a pose for their plane. Plus your vehicle won't be moving, so technically it shouldn't make a difference anyway and there's no reason for you to add or remove said weight to begin with..
I will edit the rules a bit to make it clearer what i mean
Personally not a fan of the exagerated armament, however I do like the shape of the plane! You should have gone with doing custom wheels too! Would have been nice to see a more sturdy landing system
@asteroidbook345 if you are forced to skip the 1000 part mark, you score will drop. You will not be disqualified.best of luck!! I'm looking forward to building it :)
I built the plane, It was a fun ride to build!
A small note that there are a few XML edits were noted, however I will not be stingy about it because it does not affect the final product. [Small penalties still imply]
@RamboJutter Perhaps you could revert the XML values back once you finish the build and remove the Wing game part from inside the wings - Reducing the amount of game parts used
@Tang0five I got the idea when I asked a friend to 3D print my Aquan plane. I had to disassemble it for him to print it without wasting too much resource on supports.
If there's a winner for the competition, maybe you can commission someone to 3D print the model for you to build in real life?? Just throwing a suggestion....
@RamboJutter - Build the plastic kit on Simple planes for me to build and paint as per instructions stated above. See the example posted above to have an idea what I'm talking about.
Since the plastic kit won't be flying, driving or sailing (or any combination), Weight balancing shouldn't make a difference unless you put it on a stand and its weight balance is off.
The challenge is for me to build the plane, and make it in a pose without it falling off. I discouraging that you use any weight advantage, or XML edit your way out of an awkward pose...
@rexzion I have seen beautiful planes in this place with functional cockpits using less than 800 game parts. Since the challenge does not require moving parts, I felt it's completely unecessary to have too many parts. That asides, your comment has been noted and I upped the game parts to 1000.
The challenge is an airfix challenge. I want you to build me an assembly kit that I can build and finish myself; Similar to this spitfire kit.
@Wheatman1 I am not doing requests right now, but your request has been noted. Yes, for those following me, I am still intending to do your requests, but unfortunately I am not doing requests for now... Sorry for the inconvenience...
@FaulWercht did not understand what you meant. This was not intended to be a remake, just a non-mod release of my other mig-29. Idea is realism, not aesthetic.

got a bomber in my list but I don't wish to reupload it. Could I link or do you still want a successor post?
Congrats on reaching gold ;)
RULE UPDATE: 25/06/2020 10:45 CET
@232287168147825 drag scale makes no difference. As long as the model rests on a platform or stand without falling, you're in the clear.
as i mentioned before
DEAD WEIGHT
or
XML MASS SCALE
or
FUEL
will deduct points
your model could weight 32,000,000 lbs. that won't make a difference, as long as it's not because of the above points
@232287168147825 not a problem. If you need to used them, it won't disqualify you. So don't worry too much.

this needs a b-36 bomber to take off from ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
join my airfix challenge?
@RamboJutter No worries and no rush. The deadline is 31/07/2020. I'm hoping the other participants will give their entries in by the deadline?
@Genzer11 I absolutely understand that. Tends to happen a lot on smaller bits.
Wow did not expect this plane to get any attention! Flies as elegantly as a livid hummingbird hahaha xD
@Beyjuan what do you mean?
@Oxyea It is only a personal opinion, I'm pretty sure a lot of people here prefer planes to be that way

@EternalDarkness thank you, most appreciated :)
@EternalDarkness - Kindly tag my plane to @Veronica 's Cold war challenge please...
@Veronica - My entry for your Cold War Challenge
@RamboJutter 2 entries, however if both planes get top 4, you will be rewarded on your best one.
@rexzion Looking forward :)
@RamboJutter it's fine, you still got a very good score ;)
@asteroidbook345 if you are forced to skip the 1000 part mark, you score will drop. You will not be disqualified.best of luck!! I'm looking forward to building it :)

The scoring system has been updated.
@RamboJutter no issue with drag since the models won't be tested against wind but against gravity. That much I will allow you to keep.

Hope that answers your question?
An example has been added
@asteroidbook345 As I advised in the comment below, the game parts rule has been upped from 700 to 1000 game parts.
@DeathStalker627 I changed a rule, you can use the mod.

@Brendorkus Fixed, let me know if you're interested
@teodor99 Not to worry, just a suggestion / contemplating - not a request so no rush ;)
Very nice and smooth flyer! Would be awesome if it either had gears or a docking ship similar to the planes from the Crimson skies series!
@DimitriIqbal91 I'll be on and off - not anywhere close to how much I used to...
@Wheatman1 - it's ok :)
@Wheatman1 I am not doing requests right now, but your request has been noted. Yes, for those following me, I am still intending to do your requests, but unfortunately I am not doing requests for now... Sorry for the inconvenience...
Flies like a beut! Keep up the good work!
@Thelegitpilot13 Then I have to say congrats on making an accurate design without the 3-view feature :)
@anonymoususer976 followed the orignal documentation
@Inuyasha8215 That was my overall idea yes
@Thelegitpilot13 When you follow the 3-view design, all builds of the same plane will look alike xD
Perhaps I would recommend you try out to make the Moller Skycar M400 ? Your VTOL setup would make a fantastic version of this!
cute!!
Fun to fly, didn't figure it would be such a smooth flyer at those speeds!
reminds me of turok dinosaur hunter xD
