@Planebuilder2122 No. Frogs, Crocodiles, and other amphibians will be classed as insect or land animal, so will just get the 3x multiplier. Multipliers don’t stack
@JamesG771 ok, when it’s ready, just upload it, when it comes to ranking, I’ll rank on which user has the most points, and I’ll use the entry with the most points. E.G entry A gets 30/50, but entry B gets 10/50, I’ll rank based on the which aircraft has the highest point, in this case, entry A would be the one id rank so your final score would be 30/50.
Speed = 3/10
Alright, it was slow, with a top speed (IAS) of 190 knots, can be fixed by adding / upgrading the engines with more powerful ones.
Range = 10/10
It managed to just about complete the full flight, however the low fuel problem can be solved by adding drop tanks
Capacity = 10/10
The aircraft did the required 6000lbs, and has potential for more.
Features = 3/20
A bit lacking, cargo door is all right, if you used the XMl mod and input ‘Activate1-8’ in the input section then theres no need for the VTOL down, Flaps alright, if you used ‘smooth(round(clamp01(-VTOL) * 5) / 5, 0.45)’ in the input section, then theyll deploy only on VTOL down, not up as well. As for the cockpit, great job, the camera situation if you disable auto center then itll be less glitchy, (see any of my builds with a custom cockpit). Otherwise decent job and a very good entry
@JamesG771 I’ll mark it but can’t give you a place until at least the 20th august, as this is the end date. If you want I’ll give you your results once I’ve marked it.
@JamesG771 Yes that’s fine the engine is just a preference, and Its less than (<) 700 it’s as that’s roughly the speed of sound, and I don’t want a supersonic aircraft. When your ready, upload and I’ll rank it.
SCORE:
+1 = Named after animal
+2 = Flies well
+2 = Very fast
x1 = Animal chosen is a bird
TOTAL = 5
+2@F14Tomcat1974 ok thanks :)
+2Does it have to be a real aircraft or can it be fictional?
+2Thank you to

-10 not very maneuverable
Total: 15 points
+1Thank you for submitting your design, it will be marked soon.
+1@Observer404 you don’t have to make a new plane, it’s recommended, but not required. Just link it and I’ll have a look at it
+1@Bryan5 yes feel free it’s not mine anyways, I just added some red paint.
+1@TRS051 Wdym continue?
@TRS051 ??
@WinsWings OK, thanks
@WinsWings Does the orientation of either engine matter?
Results:
+10 carrier capable
+10 looks good
-5 wings don't fold
-15 slow acceleration
-10 slow top speed
Total: -10
Thank you for submitting your design, it will be marked and the results submitted shortly.
Here’s your results:

+5 Fast
+5 Manoeuvrable
+5 Simple VR cockpit
-10 not fast enough to escape nuclear detonation
-5 No Trim capabilities
TOTAL:
10 Points
Thank you @marsianere for submitting your aircraft.
@Theplanedude57 since you don’t have 15+ builds, I have awarded 10 upvotes and 2 spotlights instead
@BeeEngineer I’ve got a plane ready, can it have missiles?
Link: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/5s3VlH/RPR-1360a-Navy
Is this the aircraft you want me to test and score?
@GorillaGuerrilla yes it would count as an insect (so a X3 multiplier)
@Planebuilder2122 ok, it won't add to your score however, as it is final
@FOXG I'm afraid not
SCORE
+1 = Named after animal
+5 = Looks like animal
x3 = Land animal
+5 = files well
TOTAL = 21
@Theplanedude57
SCORE:
+1 = Named after animal

X3 = Land animal chosen
-3 = Failed to fly
TOTAL = 36 Points
@Planebuilder2122 that’s fine, as long as it’s up by the end of 2022.
I’m afraid this won’t count as it’s not an aircraft. I apologise, I forgot to add it in the RULES Section.
Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.
P.S: it’ll count if you can make it fly
Notice:
I forgot to add it in the RULES section, but it must be an aircraft (Plane, Helicopter, or both)
Apologies for any inconveniences caused.

@Planebuilder2122 if you can make it into a plane, then it counts
@FirstFish83828 yes

Alright I’ve marked it, I’ll put the feedback in the comments section of your build
Forgot to mention, each category is ranked out of 10 (10=good)

I’d award spotlights, but I’m not sure how to spotlight a build, so credit and upvotes instead
@20190244 I know Wyvern Is a post-war design, but it’s the first example I thought of
I’ll see what I can do
Also can we do contra-rotating propellers like on the western wyvern?
@DashEight no problem!
I am fully aware of the landing gear lacking suspension, I'm working on that
