@PorkyClown3 Wing in ground affect is definitely not a present calculation inthe physics, I have been informed.
~ It would be interesting, but not as much so as wind. Still, WIG craft make a cool little sub-set.
sorry we got off topic below.

Good find on that video. That must be one disgusting KFC. Or, they have a lot of flies. Still, disgusting. The worms had gotten onto the chicken after it was cooked. Yuck!

Select "FORUMS" at the top of the page. Then, select "New Post". When you are done, select "TAGS" to tag it for something like "Announcements", to put it in that category.

The blue text, below, applies well to this site. There are many people here who are willing to share their knowledge, as far as building. A very helpful community.
It saddens me to think that this will come to an end, some day. Yes, this could go on for many years, but only if it is nurtured, carefully. I don't see that happening here. It takes capital to maintain the site, and staff. If it had a means to link to other sites, it could live or die of its own merit. It might continue past its originator' s intent to maintain.
I am sorry to go so dark. I live with depression. It saddens me to see something that works so well, socially, destined to come to an end. There would have to be some true die-hard fans for it to be otherwise.

It did more than collapse lungs. The forces involved would have torn internal organs apart. The brain is a delicate internal organ.
I missed the Monitor.
Also, if the crew had had nothing but air around them, they would have survived. They had no concept of how shockwaves travel through water, and they were just inches from that water.
The last thing they would have been aware of would have been the order to detonate the torpedo, then nothing.
I thought you might like these links. C-2 Greyhound C-1 Trader
Both of these are Carrier Onboard Delivery (COD, like the fish) aircraft.
The Trader is now retired.
Look at the density. Yes, it does weigh 551 lbs, but it has the density of a balloon filled with ordinary air. Then look at the drag points. This should act very much like a balloon.
I am sorry it is such a long read, but here is the wiki on Billy Mitchell
You could say he is the little known Father of Modern Air Power. The Navy and the Army did not want to believe that aircraft were a large threat to the weapons and tactics in which they had placed their faith.
Mitchell dragged them kicking and screaming into the modern era.
Let us not forget its namesake, William "Billy" Mitchell, who proved the effectiveness of aerial bombardment against maritime targets. (Although he did violate orders in doing so.)
You should post in brighter colors(colours) so we can see your build. Many people will not check a thumbnail they cannot see.
Or, post 2. One of them light.
Good job, btw.
@Reddley
This could be made to fly, but it is a watercraft.

Look at the fins on the bottom. They are much longer wings, scaled to be stubby. The same could be done on the horizontal plane, but you would have to shift the CoT, and balance the wing locations.
@Lizarddragon
No on Discord My Kindle has a single core, so I have trouble doing most things. That folding wing build I was doing was really pushing it. Lag = crash landing.
I saw a couple of your videos. You might want to get a video editor. I thought I heard someone's name in one of them. That should not happen ( for privacy reasons ) You might want to take that down, until you can fix it.
@Peekofwar
The grave mark I think of is the sign of the cross, with the downward arm a long thin point.
Notch is from Norway, or Finland, somewhere... And different languages use different keyboards... I wonder what they have on their key??
Here are some modded fuel tanks. Designer Fuel They contain 7,500,000 liters (almost 2M gallons) each, and weigh nothing (0 lbs, or 0 kg).
This is to get you started on modded parts.
I noticed that you are on android. That means you can run mods. It also means you can make these yourself, if you wish to. The mods that you might find most useful are:
Fine Tuner, and
Overload
You might want to check them out in the mods pages. If you select the highest rated of all time, they should both be on the top line, first page.
@Peekofwar
I would say that the web is going in the wrong direction. There should be an attempt to move toward commonality in control functions. HTML is a little heavy for comments. I get that. But, there should be a mutually accepted 'lightweight' formatting for comments and short posts. By now, we should be seeing dropdown menus (right click or long tap) that include a format option. I guess there have not been enough convention meetings of late. That is how these things normally get started.

Using black doesn't work so well in thumbnail images. What is not seen cannot draw attention.
