@iMxr Thanks!
The main reason this never actually became TARS was because I could never get it to move correctly while in the shape of a waterwheel (as seen in the movie, but performed by CASE), so I left it as it is now.
@TRD At the bottom of the aircraft's XML file, you should see a list of color attributes that look something like this: <Material color="808080" r="0.3" m="0" s="1" e="0" />. I would assume that simply adding another one of these would work (but I'm not guaranteeing that it will).
@JEST Manual pitch-up input using the normal flying controls. This will keep the tail on the ground for a longer period of time, and will soften the forward-lurching motion of the aircraft on takeoff.
This is a common problem for tail-dragger aircraft in my experience. You just need to add pitch input upon takeoff.
If it's a serious problem, then you might try moving the landing gear slightly forward until the problem is less severe, but this will take away from the historical accuracy.
Engine startup can be easily added using simple XML expressions. As for sound, you can use a variety of engines with XML expression delays and sequences to get a realistic startup sound.
@PPLLAANNEE Apparently, the new server no longer works. That server was replaced with 121.175.55.190. 160.251.58.131 is also working, but it seems to still have a few issues.
@Tornadox31 I generally do this: Pitch-(PitchRate×0.005 or number less than one)
All you need to do is replace the pitch input with other control inputs.
The number less than one is used for controlling the sensitivity of the stabilizer. A higher number is more stable (to a certain point), but leads to less maneuverability. The opposite is true for a lower number. You just need to find the middle ground number.
@MrShenanigansSP I might. The wide bomb bay doors were intentional. This gives more clearance to drop ordinance without needing to utilize a rotary bomb rack.
But, I may or may not decide to use 1/4 size bomb bay doors instead of the 1/2 size, depending on what ordinance(s) I decide to use.
@KyonIndustries So, I think scaling the internal wings down did something to the aircraft's lift. It can't get off of the ground.
If I have some time (and motivation), I might redesign the internal wing structure so that the aircraft can fly (unless you're already working on/planning on working on the aircraft).
@KyonIndustries I downloaded and tested the aircraft, it's got a few issues.
Mainly with connections and engine code errors (rudder is stuck, engines don't work properly anymore [no idle sequence], and a flap panel falls off).
If you want, I can fix some of the issues, send you the fixed version, and you can re-post the aircraft (just be sure to copy and paste the description).
In my experience, adding a gyroscope with the input "Yaw-(YawRate*number less than 1)"under the yaw input field should reduce or eliminate unwanted yawing.
What is the issue specifically? (Not locking, not firing, etc.)

C'mon TARS!
@TRD I'm not entirely sure. You might try experimenting with the numbers to see what it actually does.
@JEST Then you might try using less power on takeoff (50%-75%). That should at least somewhat help fix the problem.

I use
Activate1for throttle input, andThrottleorVTOLfor collective (this depends on if there is a forward-propelling engine on the helicopter).If it's even possible, you would probably have to edit the aircraft's XML file directly.

@MobileGamer21 Here are screenshots of the early model: https://www.simpleplanes.com/Forums/View/1657734/Stealth-Aircraft
@MobileGamer21 I'm already working on a stealth fighter jet.
@MobileGamer21 Is that a build request?
Spreadable fire and visible fuel leaking would be interesting. A map designer would also be incredibly useful.

@1KOREA1OD It should be the

@asteroidbook345 I wasn't aware that Convair had made a B-36 variant with forward-facing engines, that's very interesting!

@KyonIndustries Do you want me to post it on my profile, or send it too you so that it can be posted on your profile?
Actually, if the engines were too loud, then I won't add idle sequence.
