If you move the conflicting part away from the build with something like multi edit you can the copy it over then nudge it back. It's better though that you dont have bits that overlap in the first place.
@ChiChiWerx That gave me a chuckle. Also thanks again for your comments. The landing gear was based on B-47 / B52 arrangements, but they take off very differently to other aircraft and i just couldnt get this to be replicated on SP
@Thecatbaron I wish there was a timer for how long I have spent on each build, this one for instance was already a fuselage i had built for a german jet bomber but you are talking hours of construction to just get to that point, then the wings are recycled but they are re-sized camo added, engines added etc, then the wheels / engine bays are new panelling. You are probably looking at upwords of 12hrs of work even with re-using bits.... but its fun to build so I keep doing it =)
@Thecatbaron hey that fin is my signature jet fin, my dad used to do the same when making RC model aircraft, he had a fin shape that he liked and used in on a lot of his aircraft.
@MethaManAircraft wow, reply and a half.
Speed is difficult to get right at all altitudes (i suppose with new inputs i might be able to slave an airbrake to altitude but ive not tried it) so I set it for high altitude cruising
Drag from the flaps, again subjective, i didnt want it falling out of the sky at slow speeds,
Landing gear, I dont like linking doors to same button as LG as they clash, if there was a way to delay a rotators to properly sequence I would.
Manoverability, again subjective, I wanted it to still be controllable at high altitudes and not have a problem at slow speed, again if not 100% accurate its usable.
The co-pilot has a ground looking radar screen in front of him to use for bombing (I thought a bit more tech, rather than another seat / bomb aimers position was preferable for this invented build)
Part count is due to the paneleing of the fus and wings along with the number of dials etc. Flight model is more to make the plane fun to fly rather than be 100% accurate, nothing worse than not being able to manoever on what is essentially a game. Thanks for the post, hope this answers some questions and highlights my philosophy for this build.
Depends what you are after, scale realistic build - yes, if you are making fictional then no. Simples :)
@Hectord27 thanks, glad you liked it, was a fun build and I love flying it about.
@ssenmodnar it's just paneling, stick a keel down the middle and panel to it. Have a look at any of my flyingboats.
3 is way more than you need (even for me)

@Tang0five thanks again, I enjoyed this build, the red arrow stripes drove me nutty though, not to mention sp randomly connecting stuff :)
@Megamonster did you mean to shout?
@asteroidbook345 kind of, its actually closer to a hawk fuselage with wings and tail sections from a provost as I said in my description :)
@Diloph @Yte1234567 @Hedero thanks for the votes and comments.
@EternalDarkness your not wrong now you have mentioned it... I suppose the t2 will have a new canopy :)
@MethaManAircraft throttle is messed up on mine, it acts as an on / off lever. Just the way the game detects it I think.
@MethaManAircraft yeah, only plugged it in for this so I was quite happy how it went (last plugged it in about this time last year)
@Chancey21 @ThomasRoderick orbit view? What's that? I just use any external view that let's me scroll about :)
+1@EternalDarkness ok, ty, I didnt know that.
@Hectord27 thanks, glad you liked it.
@Tang0five Im amazed at what you can manage on a tablet, That lion would have taken me ages even on a PC not to mention all the writting etc... wow.
@Megamonster Well imagine that, I didnt even know anyone had mentioned the JP, did you not like this one?
+1@MethaManAircraft thanks, I bet you have some interesting stories to tell then.
@ND40X you had me worried there, mine has a wingspan of 10.9m the real one is 10.77m so its within tolerances.
@ND40X oh bollox I forgot to check before publishing...
@ssenmodnar i used in the input field abs(rate(smooth(GearDown, 0.5)))
@trolman yeah that one.
@ssenmodnar I'll get the code for you when I next log on
Have you got the mod enabled for inworld screenshots? If so disable it. It just causes crashes all the time.
@Diloph the blueprint mod still work when you are in the screenshot menu when uploading :)
@ACEPILOT109 confused barking?
@Hedero @Cobrahuey @Carbonfox1 thanks for the comments and votes :)
@QantasGuyA330 I shall have a go but no promises. What part count for you call friendly?
@ChisP how so? I thought it was pretty normal, the piston provost however...
@EternalDarkness thanks again for the spotlight.
@ssenmodnar have a look at the commands on the gear doors of my jet provost (ps someone nice gave me the command line)
Posted here if you want to download it
@Justadood you can edit your text to un-oof navigating if you want? Hit the little arrow next to the number of downloads and click edit.
@Bearclaw189 they are very similar. I wonder who copied from who...
@aplayer correct =)
@AgentofFortune @Bearclaw189 @ND40X correct
@asteroidbook345 @TheFantasticTyphoon @Bife correct =) It's coming on nicely.
@Trijets take a screenshot then use the blueprint mod to add the photo as a background then when you upload you just move over the screenshot.
@Type2volkswagen neither, if you pause the game you can move around freely, f9 hides hud.
@MAHADI just tried it on my s10 phone, works no bother.
@MAHADI sure you can lol :) well you did say no limit...
@ChisP nah, most of my builds dont get over 50 up votes for some reason, still a little bit disappointed in this one but nvm.
@ChiChiWerx That gave me a chuckle. Also thanks again for your comments. The landing gear was based on B-47 / B52 arrangements, but they take off very differently to other aircraft and i just couldnt get this to be replicated on SP
@ChisP thanks =) out of curiosity how did you resist putting bacon on the end of your name?

@Thecatbaron lol you win, I thought they fit this though, ill have to be careful with what i recycle with observant people around on here =p
@Thecatbaron They are actually XB-42 Mixmaster wings but whos checking =)
