@Kakhikotchauri1 I love flying through this bridge and the tower..
I also like landing under the bridge in the beams underneath.
The Orca is just small enough to fit ;)
@F104Deathtrap yup, it was just limited by it's engines, and low payload capabilities.
which is why the whole F-16 VS YF-17 competition started to begin with ;)
@ChiChiWerx It is a descendant for sure, But it is not the same aircraft in any way.
It's not a USN F-5.
it was made by the same company, but saying they are the same is just Wrong.
cool idea!
very cool Yaw control and pretty realistic.
the throttle idea is not really needed in helicopters...
turbine helicopters have a throttle thing that controls the rotation speed of the rotor automatically.
the Collective should control the amount of lift generated.
but this could be cool for a custom propeller or engine pylon like the Heli-craft from Avatar have.
Very cool build, very nice Replica!
my only problem is that some weapons like the AGM-176 cannot be mirrored without editing the connections, so symmetrical load is not always possible.
Really nice design, and it flies really good!
My only problem is the always on Gyro when flying...
If it could fly without gyro, I would've spotlighted it ;)
@YouTube2 In the designer, in the top right there's a tab that has the Open, Save, and New creation buttons
There's an option it the same tab called "Share Aircraft", That's used for uploading your creations.
hope this helps :)
@YouTube2 Thanks you!
Sounds cool, the whole Idea of this truck is for players to customize it themselves
I can't wait to see the grenade launcher you got setup on it ;)
Here's the trick, In the Designer you have Join MP button and the regular Play button that you use for Singleplayer.
Use Join MP button ONLY when first logging into MP, After that use Regular play button to avoid being moved to a different channel.
@redbear89 feel free to take any parts from my HK you need ;)
if you need help in balancing a VTOL or a helicopter, I'm always happy to help with what I can.
If you're looking for a joystick to start with, I highly recommend the T.Flight Hotas 4 , It's a great hotas from beginner to pro, and it's not that expensive.
it has a twist grip, and it's got a pedal on the trottle that can be used as Yaw as well.
pedals are a problem... they're big and take space, not to mention usually expensive.
I'd recommend getting pedals only if you're serious about flying Heli's and such in simulators.
@redbear89 I made this to fly and react to my control scheme, and be very maneuverable.
the biggest problem is that it's a very hard VTOL to fly and control.
and it also takes time to learn how to fly it.
I made the HK aerial to be more keyboard and mouse friendly, and be easier to fly. Here's a link
I come from simulators like DCS world and IL-2 Sturmovik series, where Flight control is much more realistic than Simpleplanes, and playing without a joystick is almost impossible.
A joystick and Throttle will give you much more control than keyboard and mouse, just because you're using both arms and have more inputs/buttons at your fingertips.
Once you start flying Helicopters or VTOLS however, Yaw control becomes extremely important, so Pedals are needed or a good Twist grip joystick. This is a link to my DCS helicopter stunt flight
@Kakhikotchauri1 I have some piloting time in helicopters irl.
regarding physics well, SP really depends on what you build...
I think it's more of a physics simulator than a flight simulator, but if you have the time, patience and a few thousand parts, you can make a plane be as realistic like in any simulator.
Regarding helicopter physics, there's ground effect there...
If you want to try helicopter flying, Try DCS Wolrd, it's the most realistic helicopter sim out there.
If simpleplanes and other games were Highly realistic in their helicopter flight model, You'd have less players piloting them in games like SP, Arma, Battlefield, and War thunder etc..
@redbear89 Thank you very much!! :)
I made a tutorial on how to fly it, and it also has links to 2 Orca versions as well. Link to Tutorial
It's not an easy to fly VTOL, hope you have fun with it :)

@Altmztrn maybe if it was still.. but the damn thing like to bounce up and down ;)
@F104Deathtrap yup, it was just limited by it's engines, and low payload capabilities.

It came from a competition between the F-16, and YF-17 Cobra
Check it out here
@ChiChiWerx Thank you!
and Oh yeah, Hollywood should really stop messing around with pre 2000's franchises.
Saw it on Multiplayer as well, got a couple of pics you might like..

Very cool creation!
@ChiChiWerx Oh, ok!
I thought it was a bug, not intentional.
This plane is pretty amazing.
Cool aircraft, Flies great and looks great!
but for a Navy plane, it's really buggy with the carrier catapult.
@Prolex917 I'm with you buddy :(
@TheFantasticTyphoon Cool and congrats, I'm on the public you can find the IP Here
see you online :)
@Prolex917 it only looks like a tunnel... it's a wall... I tried :P

had to remove the sound because the song was blocking the video

+1my only gripe is that it's not 1:1 scale, but that's my personal opinion.
LOL , more like as target practice once you start being a Troll and attacking players in MP XD
+1I'll give this a test when the new version is out of Beta :)
+1@metallicplanes Any time you use the MP join button after first joining, it'll send you to a random channel.
@metallicplanes That's the only solution I know of.
If you get channel switched then you need to restart, or try what I suggested before.

@Kakhikotchauri1 yup, and if you put a "!" sign it'll turn into an image in description..
You can test it on an unlisted build as well
@Kakhikotchauri1 use discord or other site to upload your image, and copy the url from it.. and it doesn't work in comments
I.E. !This image
is: ![This image] (https://i.pinimg.com/originals/22/ca/06/22ca06d0a7b904a5a11bd5050bbce60d.png)
@Kakhikotchauri1 to post with an image, you need to type: ![image name] (url link JPG/JPEG etc) without space between the large and small parenthesis
@asteroidbook345 yeah... but if simpleplanes was as realistic as DCS, you'd have even less players flying helicopters.
very cool!
@Kakhikotchauri1 Not sure if that's possible...
but i'm not that good with funkytrees, might want to contact players with more experience..
@Kakhikotchauri1 glad you like it :)

@Charris969 I don't really know :\
I think it has to do with players you're following, and what they upvote or spotlight..
@Charris969 tag me in it, I'll give it a look :)
