@XAircraftManufacturer cool challenge, but i have an idea that's going to make this a whole lot more interesting. You see, one of the greatest challenges of making quite literally an supersonic or hypersonic aircraft for that matter is fuel efficiency, so maybe add this in the rewards: You will get -- more upvotes if your build can make it from wright airport to yeager airport without the fuel going below 95%.
Mostly is right, this is stupid as heck like what the fudge man
how could you possibly not know 3+8??? it so easy! it's literally 21 dummy.
Edit: Oh why did I upvote? oh ah well.... I HAVE MY OWN REASON YOU KNOW GIVE ME PRIVACY JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZOOS.
By "vintage" what exactly do you mean? (Please do not rudely take that)
Basically, IIRC vintage is something that is at least 20 years old. That's pretty ok unless you think about planes such as The 737 which is considered modern amongst today's people, not vintage. In fact, even the most well-known variant of B737 which is B737-800 is 26 years old at this point. So Ig TL;DR question is:
Do you want a really old school, prop powered aircraft or something that is actually by definition Vintage?
@ThatKindaWeeb here is some more info
an f15 isn't the best choice but obviously understandable considering how hard it is to make plane that looks somewhat realistic,let alone a huge one, but the numbers do kinda make this particular plane a little ridiculous.
no matter how much a reactor is weighed down, its not possible to make one weighing less than 100 tonnes. for reference max payload on the f15 is 13 tonnes.....
what you need is something at least the size of a B737. if you want I could help I making one... havnet really found something is want to do until now anyway.
@thatkindaweeb also, you should probably correct this in the lore
||"Project OverDrive was a test Conducted bye the US Airforce and The United States Fusion Research Laboratory in ¦¦¦¦¦¦, Texas."||
the "bye" spelling is incorrect, it is supposed to be "by"
and you may already be aware of this but fusion reactors on average are expected to reach 15 million kelvin, not 100x that... so I recommend changing that unless this is high tech technology that is from the far future.
other than that, ver very nice build Weeb-Chan (lmao)
@GuyFolk understood, ill keep an activation group reserved for the rudder retraction system, and yes, il probably use differential thrust control as a last ditch acting as a Just-in-case the plane spins out of control. Although unfortunately due to IRL limitations I cannot make said changes right now or even for the following few days, ill make sure to add these systems when I'm free.
@GuyFolk also, that SHOULD mean that differential thrust for yaw would be better instead of a rotor... correct? (Or that both are similarly applicable for this system)
@GuyFolk thank you for taking the time to write that!
For the wing loading, make the wing loading higher would also affect high speed maneuvers greatly and that is not something I intend, if you have seen my previous builds then you will know the e40's greatest superiority point is high speed maneuvering. The reason why it is even using forward swept wings is because its far more practical for what I aimed for, of course it comes at the cost of instability
So unfortunately trying to increase wing loading would defeat the sol purpose of why its even named "Outrider" or in this case "Echostar" (that name is more of a lore reference).
I've added thrust vectoring via your video only as a last resort in battle, when the enemy aircraft/missile somehow manages to outperform it in normal flight. If that happens, the plane will make distance using afterburners, slow down and get to a stall point and then the tvc does its thing until the missile/aircraft is in line of fire. Its risky
But thats the only thing I could think about..
However, about the yaw behavior, thats some good info! I will make sure to add some sort of system that retracts the rudder when its below 100 mph.
@EdTheMan you placed really high, so high that I cant give the reward as of yet because you haven't uploaded 20 planes ( basically to give your 20 upvotes as your reward I have upvote 20 of your planes ) so for now, I upvoted the 3 planes you've made so far but obviously, that's not even half of what you deserve so encourage you to continue making more
@BlackZero try learning from what pajamas720 did on his nobunaga, each engine has a code the compensates for the instability on the aircraft. That is quite literally the only reason he won this challenge.
@50CalChicken forgot to add yours, but I judged it and it comes in third place, but people may get angry if i change the leader Jordan now so instead ill make it a "my personal favorite" because it quite literally is.
@Pajamas720 nvm, just tested it on pc, seems like it the problem persists on mobile-only... maybe its because certain ft codes don't properly go on mobile
No Commènto again
no comments OwO
at this point your style is really starting to develop, and its really good
First comment :-3
@FireFast212 yep, there is, its called Photopea.
T
For someone so new to the site, I can proudly say that you deserve my support and are severely underrated, thank you for making this beautiful craft!

@XAircraftManufacturer Hmm, good point, how about adding : Without the use of mods and xml.

@SodiumIodide well ok, thanks ig. Google isn't always right then. So on that note I'm in.
@WiiMini ?
I have a question...

@BlackZero here

@BlackZero you placed 2nd, I've added notes so that you know why you lost the point and how to improve at them
@BlackZero click on my profile and see the results on the posts tab
@blackzero can you confirm that you got your reward?
@Dracul0Anderson it was originally upvote and spotlight but I'm felling a bit generous
can someone explain why i got 7 fps on a rtx3090? (only for like 3 seconds though)
@V
@Guianlorenzo
@mrshenanigans
thank you for the kind spotlights!
@IshiMoss jesus christ that pfp fricking scared me XD
@BlackZero try learning from what pajamas720 did on his nobunaga, each engine has a code the compensates for the instability on the aircraft. That is quite literally the only reason he won this challenge.
@Pajamas720 you don't have 30 builds so if its ok can I wait until you have 30? Currently you have 25 IIRC
@Pajamas720 i did, it was still fun to fly, all were.
@MrShenanigans if asking how I design my cockpits, then I mostly put down my design on paper
@50CalChicken forgot to add yours, but I judged it and it comes in third place, but people may get angry if i change the leader Jordan now so instead ill make it a "my personal favorite" because it quite literally is.
@BlackZero @Dracul0Anderson @Pajamas720 @Grey1 check my profile for the results.
@Ardvark thank you
@Pajamas720 you may or may not be first... lets see ..
@BlackZero i was very busy with work so I just didn't have the time but I'm doing the judging rn :-/
@BlackZero Yeah I forgot, ill tell yall today
Kek
@Dracul0Anderson wrong. There are things you can change
@Dracul0Anderson you can use the ones given w/the template. Those give their own pitch and also stabilize the overall craft itself.
@Dracul0Anderson id recommend funky trees then, specifically codes that relate to litch inputs and so.
DAMN thats cool... it does only have 67 parts but I'm assuming designing it didn't take less than ten minutes so you can get around that
@ScarletWings very cool, liked it
@Chancey21 spefyjerb thought that at first so just to make sure
@Chancey21 before that, its not a 3d print
@ScarletWings i hope your editing it, backstory gives a good amount of points
@Sadboye12 lol, it's for the coincidental good you didn't get rickrolled by the likes of me
@Pajamas720 nvm, just tested it on pc, seems like it the problem persists on mobile-only... maybe its because certain ft codes don't properly go on mobile
