@TheSeventh By pitch I was referring to the pitch of the entire aircraft (nose up/down), not the pitch of the blades. The tail rotor doesn't control the elevation of the nose.
@Dragoranos Hmm.... not quite what I was thinking with this challenge but technically if the wings can pivot in-game it should be all good. Sounds interesting!
Well, here's a video of the real aircraft (now y'all get to know what it is I suppose). It's a little trickier than it looks, since the struts are all at different angles.
If it's bouncing when/after spawning, try increasing the damper of the suspension (if applicable). If it's bouncing around during the catapult launch, decrease the acceleration rate (you can do this by adding a catapult connector and editing its settings).
I don't think the in-game autopilot uses a variable, so I don't think it can be activated by a switch or button. However, you could essentially get the same level of functionality as the base game autopilot with a properly configured gyroscope.
I think you have the wrong game... You sound like you're looking for the "Simple Planes" mod for Minecraft. "SimplePlanes" (this game) is a different game entirely.
@asteroidbook345 I may have found something that might work, at least to an extent. It's a multi-view diagram (well, actually the full provisional speed certificate document) for the Indian WDG6G locomotive. It should be enough to get the dimensions and overall proportions at least, since both are cab-forward locomotives built on the Evolution-series frame, but it's not quite the same. The cab shaping is noticeably different, and the WDG6G has a second cab at the rear that isn't present on the HXN5.
The diagram is pretty high (or at least useable) resolution, and can be found on page 6 of this PDF. It has front, back, top, left side, and left cutaway views.
@Mlancer Doesn't matter when it was started, if you get it done before December and it fits the rules, it counts!
Sorry, minimum for the challenge is 200 parts.

Accurate.
Not me.
@Mondayhater ...Why, exactly, have I been tagged on this? I don't recall requesting a tag.
Edit: I see you have deleted the original comment tagging me. That's interesting.
No
Sorry, minimum for the challenge is 200 parts.
That P-40 looks awesome! I'd be glad to help test it if you want.
@Mondayhater All entries will be rated/judged once the challenge deadline has arrived.

Increase suspension damper and/or decrease spring strength.
@JustDragon Very true, it's actually quite good. It doesn't sink into mud since it's so light.
Does anyone else see everything after the description in italics?

All I will say is that the fastest plane on the site will not still be controllable. It is too fast.
@Brayden1981 Challenge is open until December 1, judging will be sometime after that.
@Sterben214 Here's how to do it.
@DeezDucks Oh, right. Whoops.

@DeezDucks @Vincent I know one of y'all knows how to make things successors
@DaKraken XML is perfectly ok.
Sorry, minimum for the challenge is 200 parts.
@Roger747 Either publish it as a successor or ask (tag) a moderator to make it a successor to this challenge.
@FarrowTECH @PlaneFlightX

@FarrowTECH Sure
melty computer time
But seriously though this looks stunning.

hhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH

Give this a read
@210100 Pretty sure you can still get an adblocker for a phone but okay.
I mean... you could just use an adblocker. Or sign in (I'm pretty sure you don't get ads if you're signed in, but I might be wrong on that).
When the adbot can't even do its job right
@ColonelCanada Depends on the device. The iPad I used to play on started seriously lagging at about 350 parts.
Adjust the center of mass or center of lift. Try moving them closer together or farther apart and see what happens.
@DEADSHOT14 I'm not making a label picture of that.
No.
No.
Addition to #1: Most other people won't even notice if it's off by a bit

Looks awesome!

Try re-uploading it. Could just be something got screwed up somewhere during the upload.
I suppose I could have used my Pioneer for this too lol
Beautiful pictures! (and those vapor trails though!)

Also some other pictures of the model one that you might be able to use for detailing or something later on.
@asteroidbook345 Oh yeah I guess it is pretty small. Whoops! I'll let you know if I find anything else.
Oh, I'm going to have fun with this.
