Hey i didnt want to muddy up your challenge... what you think about putting some sample pics for ideas for people? just random builds of yours... give people some ideas
one thing i have noticed is that high upvote rewards of 15 or more for 1st place, 10 or more for 2nd...etc...seem to get a lot more attention from users just something i have noticed lately
@EliteArsenals24
I wish i could say its nice to see you taking the high road but your joke was not offensive...At all.....but I understand why youre doing this and it shows a lot about your character....
if you were in front of me i would have a " deer in the headlights " look... lol...i can figure stuff out as i go but i dont know what gui or python3 is...yet... let me goggle it
@DerekSP
congrats ED! honestly...im old and grizzled so when i got on here i thought you were a young arrogant kid but as the year went on i witnessed not only what a talented builder you are but also how much you help others. I think youre going to do a great job as moderator and congrats again!
We are in the same boat....i havent been able to build anything for awhile. I am building for another challenge now though. Besides challenges Ive lost all interest.... but i think part of the reason is as we learn to build better we put more pressure on ourselves to build at a acceptable level....i have a lot of little builds that i prob wont finish because they didnt pan out....
Thanks for putting this challenge on it was fun and i know it was a lot of work for you, i have already started my entry for your new challenge.
@mikoyanster
hey long time no see! yep im in another building rut but decided on a new build today. when i get it to testing phase ill upload a unlisted for you.@Homemadeforthepros
Just a friendly reminder its always nice to give credit to the original builder. Even the person before you failed to do so. Its a cool build and i think the builder deserves credit.
EDIT i just noticed you uploaded the one before you also... lol sorry
on IOS... It flies pretty good, it responds really well to pitch and roll. When i tested it on my ipad it couldnt hover in place, when i throttled up it moves fwd. I havent taken it apart but i would guess the vtol tab controls a vtol engine so i guess it could hover that way. either way i think its a very cool build, great job. ill blue link a vtol build of mine, prob the build im most proud of, check it out when u have time. VX50
@jermaineevans
great job! i think with a few changes this could be even better! MY THOUGHTS FOR IMPROVEMENT
1. Change the vtol rotation from pitch to vtol, it makes it troublesome to hold pitch down to move fwd. Or use trim since trim isnt really a factor with this craft.
2. Add some more detail to engines, intakes, etc...
3. use scaled weapons so they fit a lil better.
these are just my opinion im not saying im right but these are a few changes i would make.
Im in a building rut, i have started half dozen different builds and i dont want to finish any of them lol..... maybe a big bowl of wheaties will help :-D
@FGW2014
I agree.. I think one of the main reasons some of this stuff goes on is because there is a wide age spectrum here...you can quickly discern this after looking through a few posts or comments. It goes both ways.... "some" younger users have their way about them, and "some" elder users have their way.... like any relationship people interpret things differently and butt heads about the dumbest poo....And.....there's also language barrier issues.....people may use a translator app that does a really poor job and may actually come across as inappropriate or aggressive....I forget quite often that we are not all in the US....Just my humble grizzled opinions...
Actually....I forgot it may be called something else outside the US. A intercooler here in the US is typically used for super or turbocharged engines...The radiator is the source for cooling down naturally aspirated engines. just fyi... LOL this is pretty good though either way !

you know its possible to use multiple devices right? I upload off my ipad most of the time but I also use my PC when i want to edit something.

+2Great Job!
with a little fine tuning this build could probably use the VTOL system i built for my EDGE plane. ive always liked VTOL capable planes...
@DerekSP
Nice work Derek!
Great Job! I was going through the entries and this is really well done i thought.
+1"Itza Mario".... hopefully you get that...lol nice build as usual
+1check this out...

did you mean a radiator?
Glad the bears didnt find you....that wouldve been unbearable!
