@elliotjuk I've made innumerable PSM Capable aircraft and here's what I found works best:
|
-"Flat Bottom" Airfoils have the smoothest stall curve meaning plenty of control even past 30°AOA check here for more info
|
-Having a wing loading between 200kg/m² and 300kg/m² works great and still leaves loads of agility, but 350kg/m² and higher is kinda pushing it as from my experiences it makes the aircraft feel quite sluggish
|
Basically, higher wing loadings increase manueverability, but decrease agility and vice verse
|
-CoL should be close to the CoM but still behind it, the closer the better
|
-FBW works wonders, but is completely optional due to complexity
Around the time car wheels were first added to the game, those were not just my favorite memories of simpleplanes, but of my childhood
|
My dad worked out of town (about 30 minute drive) during this time, this meant I got to take frequent trips out to the camper at a camp site about 10 minutes from where he worked: even got picked up from middle school early to go to this campsite
|
Anyways, the day Car Wheels were added to the game was the same day I got picked up early from school to go "camping" again with my dad for a long weekend, it was a 5 day trip.
|
My mind was buzzing with ideas with those wheels during those 5 days
|
Life was good back then
@CrestelAeronautics I have some really big aircraft (the one in that screenshot has a wingspan of 41.8 km), would I be allowed to upload one of those for this challenge?
downloaded this incase it gets zucked by the mods
@32 thanks

@CrestelAeronautics c'mon it's actually quite a mobile friendly creation as even the newest version of that craft has only 777 performance points

This is makin' it to the front page
+2I riot if it doesn't
You don't see stuff like this these days on the site
Good job and keep up the good work
+1I too have built some of my Simpleplanes aircraft for Juno
+1Got a nerf gun coming in on one of these in about 2 days from now

"ah jeez. wtf did you make this time"
+1Wtf is this
Why is this
@DEADSHOT16 good question
Unfortunately, I still live with my mother and she's the one who does the payments for me, so I couldn't tell ya
Guess who got the first download
This guy right here

I'd like to see my name on one of those recipts
Already got one on a Chick-fil-A receipt
wth?
+1@TAKTIKALTOASTER I beg to differ: I got less than 12 hours on that game
Why didn't we evolve like this: it's way more stable
