This certainly looks great! Probably needs some work on the flying - which can be tricky sometimes. A couple of tips... try not to add dead weight to balance it, better to move wings or mod parts to 0 mass. Move the rear landing gear to just behind the red line for an easy take off. The all moving tail looks great, however its a huge surface and can be tricky to get to work right... but all good, love the plane!!!
I did have it connected originally, however when pitching roll was effected and visa versa. It wasn't huge but it was apparent. This was the solution for this build. There is probably a way to get this working without the attachment 'magic'...
Use about 1 to 5% for take off. This uses Trim, so just tap it up - it has lots of lifting power! Once you understand this its a breeze to fly.
@Clue1005
True - at high speed I have had down rate the maximum by 25% to avoid the ocate between two positions issue.
How'd you figure out the distance from the magnets to parts of the pistons?
- I put the magnets on a piston and fiddled with them until I found a sweet spot.
Plus, how'd you make this work without putting a crankshaft in the middle of the piston parts?
- Not too sure what you mean here, but most things can be done!
Ahh. There is a small cockpit just behind the pilots seat - make that active and it should work. If not then change the armed group to ALL. On a PC I just hit the space bar to fire :)
Its a second gun aimed at an indestructible block... This is difficult to set up. If you nudge parts out of this gun you should see the set up. I now use a thrust port for gun flashes - easier.
@Abhishek700
Sounds good, I'll try it
@BananaBlob
Brilliant work!!!

+1I don't think so, there are many many very detailed entries - mine is more a fun entry...
@Shippy456
Yes, good one - big cat!
@Stormfur
Yes, I think its a giant mutant frog!
@QingyuZhou
A little random? what?
@Ryn176
Thew frog was winning until only yesterday!
@Gameboi14
sure thing
@TopMikeSadano
:)
@TakicraftCorporation
This is brilliant, but where is the bathroom !
+1All good - there are some very well done entries so far. My entry is just for fun:)
+2@EternalDarkness
Thats what I thought!

I was messing with it the other day!!!

@Clue1005
Totally cool! I love this
Thanks, I"ll try out your glider via catapult!!!
+1@Cardboard
Very cool
Brilliant!!!
@IzzyIA
Very cool!
@plane918273645
Thats a thought... I’ll research...
@Skystar
Vert nice - hey where is the second picture taken?
+1How strange! I'm normally testing Wright airport... so...
@QingyuZhou
Yes, I forgot about that... good to hear you still checked it out.
@Smasher8ball
Mine does.. I'll check again
@QingyuZhou
Good idea
+1@Chancey21
Thanks everyone!

Thanks
@edufrs14
I'm using the designer settings mod, with a back colour I chose and a FOV of 20

What do you mean exactly?

@AerialFighterSnakes
SHe is big!
+2Not a lot of parts and looks really good
I've got three on the go, another marine/sub sea one, and aerial one and some other messing around kinda things

+3@Abhishek700
I agree, opens up lots of possibilities
@GeneralOliverVonBismarck
I didn't notice.. i'll check again - it could be your PC
+1@AerialFighterSnakes
I will try!
@Shippy456
Try high physics
@ZestoPresto
Use of gyros's basically, but less need now with the new props.
@RedstoneAeroAviation
This is probably some lights underneath reflecting back from the ground.
+1@RedstoneAeroAviation
Try this one

@Abhishek700
Yes, AG8 off, and then use TRIM and VTOL
@RocketFuel
+1That would work I reckon
