There is a beam that runs down the wing, which the flap is connected to. I simply rotated that beam to the same angle at which the flap is deployed.
@Hedero
Ah, I’ll make sure to put a catapult dolly on the next version. And I totally know what you mean with maneuverability. In fact, I had to keep restraining myself from making this thing in a super-fighter a few times, but I think it has turned out pretty ‘40s ish on that front.
@Mustang51
you seem to suggest that aircraft with stock wing parts may be given less points. However, you only have to look at creations by authors like costr who’s builds are only made better by the stock parts. In this case the stylized wings are worthy of a top score.
I usually build the wings out of fuselages first, and then nudge the in-game wing pieces in. Nudging is possible on mobile, the button is linked to the ‘rotate part’ button.
@Alta2809
I wish you good luck. I hate to be the guy who says “slow and steady wins the race”, but if your opponent crashes, that might just be the way to go.
@Thelegitpilot13
It seems impressive, doesn’t it? However, during the race, the camera switches around a lot, which minimally affects the flying of the ai. At the speeds reached by aircraft like Speed Gull, these changes can be catastrophic when flying near terrain. We will just have to wait and see how she deals with it.
@Thelegitpilot13
You really shouldn’t single out builds which you think are bad. Many people around the community follow you, which means they’ll see this and immediately form their own opinions based on yours. That whole bit about the Sailor Regal made you come off as quite the knob. Then at the end you say “Don’t hate”, as well as, “ignore it and move on”. I’ll tell you what; try not to be a bloody hypocrite.
Thrust vectoring is not necessary for Pugachev’s cobra. The maneuver was first demonstrated with a model of Flanker which did not have augmented thrust. All that is needed is an aerodynamically unstable aircraft.
Yes, you may
@Trollium
Yes, now that engine can breath! Nice colours, too
No problemo. It’s a rather lovely aeroplane
@Jokowi
Nice shape, but no air intake...
Saab B3LA?

Wow... last time I saw you, it was all blocks. Now you’ve got all the bells and whistles it shows. Well done!

Thank you!

It’s you! I’m glad to be back. Thanks for upvote!
@MAHADI
Thank you!
@EternalDarkness
I did a quick build just so I don’t forget... don’t worry, it’s not my final submission.
+1@Mustang51
Thanks Bruv
@Kingflyer1
I think I will. I’m a bit rusty, but this looks rather fun.
@Mustang51
Actually, you make a good point; the stock wings don’t just look good on their own.

Just a Tomcat with an subtle edge down the forward fuselage

It is fictional... the 163 didn't have two nozzles.
@HighPitch1998
I bet that Centaurus engine sounded brilliant.
You too!

@Thelegitpilot13
Speed Gull is getting a consistent 1:10. She isn’t exactly a world beater, but I think she will do decently.
There isn't much more the mods can do to prevent this behavior.
@Maxwing1
Very well done post. I have had a lot of trouble explaining this concept to many people, but you hit the nail on the head with this.
+7Bloody hell, you’re back!
Thank you very much, that will sure be useful!
@RAAF
Possibly. I am looking into different school carriers.

+1The fact that the build was recommended is understandable, but you’re sending two different messages. That’s the part I don’t get.

It handles beautifully
+1I will test this if you make the tail code 86970.
iOS can do many things, but it is still limited. Congratulations for achieving platinum on this platform.

+1Playing the Gleipnir soundtrack over this is pretty creepy

Lovely build.
Very Sukhoi

The name doesn’t exactly instill a sense of confidence, but lovely build anyhow.
I think you mean TSR-2... TSR-1 was the Fairy Swordfish.

I’m Looking forward to it

You need to give credit to Mikoyanster
Alright, alright... what tank should I do? Also, I loved your Churchill!
