Also you probably didn't know about the sub reddit, but stuff like this (anything that's not something you made for the community basically) goes there. No worries on this, but just for the future
Exactly how I feel, but I don't think it's entirely our fault. The gold users are on the top user list, and if you've gone through the hottest and newest sections already, you go to the user list to find some gold planes. The people who make 5 useless planes a day (not naming names, but there are some who probably come to mind) will get much more notice and become a high user faster than someone who makes amazing planes on a weekly basis. If screfiers or authros were a white rank and not gold they probably wouldn't get many points because they go for quality over quantity, and would get buried in the newest like many others. I just think the website needs better rating systems to prevent that from happening
You should make a game called SimpleDogToys.. But this is a plane website for a plane game, and if it isn't a vehicle or something with time put into it. Then it shouldn't be here. All you did was make a crude 16 part bone, describe a basic challenge in the description and title it dog toy challenge. I've seen more effort from white users
The problem I see is that your props are hitting each other when they rotate. I'm not sure about the power loss, but if you got 150mph out of 2 250hp engines then there is something weird going on there. I moved one prop forward a little and made them both 500hp and could only get to 140 during level flight
I've seen this before in some other planes, but never this bad. for starters I removed the dihedral in the tail wings which makes the roll easy to recover from. But with the amount of pitch and the CoM being below the CoL. When you pitch down the CoM wants to go up and the plane spins around like that. So either raise the CoM a little bit or remove some control surfaces and it should fly better
Impressive! And congrats on 25k points :) Also, if you have the beta on iOS I'm pretty sure you can just download the sp app from the App Store again if you want to switch back early
@Kevpilot just go here https://www.reddit.com/r/SimplePlanes/comments/3fbd76/beta_test_signup/ and sign up for whichever device you have. No need to make a reddit account
Pretty good, but it isn't very maneuverable. I would make the main wings bigger and make the plane lighter, it doesn't need to be made of fuel tanks and that many air brakes above the CoM makes the plane unstable when breaking
@Stingray you can detach the cockpit from the carrier and have it not connected to anything, so the part number is 1 for mobiles to be able to download it and then we can re attach the cockpit ourselves. Although it still might lag some devices though
This is a really great plane, I love the looks and it flies perfectly. And I took this on a pretty abusive flight, but couldn't get anything to break off. I'm on the beta version so whatever problem you've been having should be fixed in the next update

Sorry for the novel XD

Cool how it looks like a smoke trail. did you mod it?

Flies perfectly now :)
Looks great, but hard to take off. It likes to do backflips
Oh my god it's like a 10 part hypno plane!
interesting way of arranging control surfaces. Unfortunately it makes it kind of sluggish at slower speeds
This is a fun little plane
Nice idea with the fuselage made with a wing, but it's hard to control
It's a little tipsy and tends to pitch down. Other than that it's a pretty good design
What
@Viper28 thanks :D
This is great
I have the beta, it still says I need "camera 2"
@A5mod3us not to mention you could probably build a full size plane with 10 parts in the beta
Just made mine, it was fun to build it with such a low part restriction :)

Missiles and boMBS AND EXPLOSIONS!! OH MY
I agree, but this belongs in the sub reddit. Not here

Very nice. I had quite the firey death in this
@JacobHardy64 the new map is in the iOS version, the jundroo is heading roughly in its direction.

@carter2 yes
My friend got the update but I can't for some reason :( and we're both on iOS so idk

Wow that really is sturdy
This is spectacular. the blue underside looks amazing
Cool, you even PlanesOfOldify a hypnotiadian plane haha
Amazing, you did a really nice job with this one
This is fun to fly, especially the crashing bit at the end :)
17 parts too big for mobiles
@Hypnoticchicken Here is my entry
@Hypnoticchicken thank you :) I know it makes judging a pain I'll remember to switch them before I upload next time
@Hypnoticchicken can I tag you in mine? I forgot to switch the cockpits to make it a successor of this
@PlanesOfOld sorry, I wish I could switch back so everyone could use them.
@FrogFury are you using it right? http://kamcord.com/v/YHc4rvcGzn6
The CoT needs to be in the same spot of the CoM to take off vertically
This is one of the stock planes, everyone has it...
This is a regular wing
I'll upload a cluster bomb I have in the morning
Are you going to judge this one or make another competition?
Nice concept, but you're missing an axis
It's so massive I love it. This'll be my go to for heavy loads from now on
I'm on the iOS beta and I don't know how to switch it back, so the plane just disappears at about 3,000 mph
