I know the feeling when you build something you’re proud of and it only gets 17 upvotes. Sometimes it feels as though the build quality doesn’t correlate at all to popularity. I wonder if the timing of the upload and the thumbnail aren’t bigger factors than actual build quality.
@SilverStar I appreciate it! I try not to worry too much about flight models as that tends to give me a headache. I just try to keep the planes performance within realistic limitations.
Use Imggbb for image hosting. Seems to work perfectly for me. I still have images in the description of my Do-335 from over 3 weeks ago and they’re all still there. Discord abandoned the long-term image hosting for a while I think.
@SchadeAircaftCompany I did see that, I was going to try to replicate something similar but it ruins the flow of my design so I decided to use an E-3 Sentry fuel port with opening/closing doors.
I have a couple questions.
1. Is the aerial refueling drogue mandatory? I’m finding it difficult to attach one and I can’t see that any real life AWACS aircraft perform aerial refueling operations.
2: what exactly is expected as far as radar? Obviously we can’t create a real radar that scans for aircraft. Did you just want a roto dome or some radar housing for aesthetics?
Can you say that again?
+3@Ericshideout @B1BLancer @WinsWings Thank you guys!
+2Thanks for featuring my Yak-9! Means a lot!
+2Finally, a proper replica on the website.

+2@Idksus @planeguy2022 @Krikkit42 thank you guys I appreciate the kind words and support!
+2@XEPOH Yak-9UT was among the last yak-9 variants. The yak you mentioned was a trainer. I simply meant the last of the yak fighter series.
+1I’ll give it go, please and thank you.
+1@SemedianIndustries I don’t see the difference
+1@MrCOPTY literally
+1Beautiful design. Very unique. I would only advise adding some sort of airbrake or reverse thrust to slow down once you land in the water.
+1@ellencreech the landing gear are different, it lacks thrust vectoring nozzles, and the airbrake is completely different.
+1@Apollo018362 thanksssss bro
+1@JABH thanksss
+1@WinsWings I appreciate it
+1@Tang0five thank you!

@ArCeon I maybe should have put some more fuel in it, the turbofans inside the plane for aesthetics eat up the fuel very quickly.
@NTH Man I just saw that, that makes me so happy 😁
@XEPOH I would assume the yak-9 came first?
@Dragoranos often times it will
@MrCOPTY thank you
@Agent1Scope Go ahead.
@RamboJutter absolutely
Fun to see the behind the scenes. Really neat.

@TheCommentaryGuy I appreciate it
Hey I’m building a jet with variable geometry wings and your flap codes work perfectly. Would you mind if I used them and gave you credit?
@Skykid028 sorry man but I don’t play anymore.
@Tanner0501 yeah they’re annoying
@KPLBall it kinda looks like one
@Rob119WithA105mmHowitzer @UltravioletBlood thank you!
@Tingly06822 thanks
@MAPA thank you very much!
When will the winner be decided?
@CallsignGizmo thank you very much, I’m very satisfied with my position so far.

@AlivePan @Krikkit42 aww thanks!
@FlyingBathtub haha yeah I’m in the process of watching ozark, I love it rn! 😁
@ollielebananiaCFSP thanks! I got a lot of my inspiration from Hedero. He makes awesome builds but it’s so sad he retired before I joined 😢
