@LieutenantSOT I do suppose our alliance will need bombing capabilties. The reason I thought of this is because I just heard a B-52 fly over. Them jokers are loud
@LieutenantSOT I think it might be pushing the upper limits of a light bomber but if you are going to make another version than I would say yes it is okay to enter. Also I am sorry for not entering your WW1 challenge. Something came up and I was not able to even start building one.
@NormalPioneer @XP or anyone elese complaining about my thumbnail pictures. I am fairly new to SimplePlanes and not sure how to make this look professional. If you are going to complain than you can either shut your mouth about it or not participate in my challenge. Sorry for being rude.
@KettleKip Well in the early years of aviation I believe some pilots threw hand grenadea out of fighters, so the answer is yes you may toss a small bomb out of a PO-2. Looking foward to see what you come up with!
@LieutenantSOT well thank ya! I actually needed some inspiration for a build. This was a very simple build compared to some of my flying messes. And one of my best!
@LieutenantSOT I’ll will definetly try to put something together! I’m kinda on the development spree of flying wings. But I may do a micro fighter-bomber. Depends on what speaks to me the most....
@Strikefighter04 oh okay. I get it now. You had a country named after that same word that I used in the opening line. Yeah I didn’t know that. This website never ceases to amaze me.
@mikoyanster Hi again. So I decided to build a drone. So a couple of questions regarding that.
1) Does a drone need to abide by the 8G rule since there is no actual living being onboard? As the pilot could be as far as a a couple thousand miles away, he or she wouldn’t be affected by the G’s the drone is pulling. ( I honestly have no idea as to how many G’s it’s pulling, see Q2 below)
2) If it does have to abide by that, how do I input the 8G limit codes? I can’t figure it out. If that’s funkytrees somebody’s going to have to show me how cause I only know how to do the basic XML stuff. Kinda new to the game lol.
I’m not sure if you know or not, but it will be way easier to fly if you change the big control surfaces on the wings to roll instead of pitch and the tiny horizontal ones on tail to pitch. Unless she is built to fly the way you have it set up... great plane though. Looks like the start of a great build!!
@Dude32 I know how to fly a airplane. It was a simple issue of me having physics set to low to reduce lag on IOS. Needed to be set on high. Perhaps try to be helpful before handing out somewhat rude comments?
@MAHADI all right. I’m kinda new to this site so I really don’t know what I’m doing. Lol. I just start pressing buttons and hope I don’t mess something up.
I don’t mean to be a party pooper but I can’t even make this thing get off the ground. Around 80mph the gear start doing this weird swerve and than completely rip off the plane. Tried starting in air but couldn’t get enough speed to fly. USS Beast Catapult rips front gear off too. Overall a great looking plane. Any suggestions on how to fix the gear sliding out from under plane? I assume it probably just a ios glitch!
@MAHADI I beg for forgiveness. I forgot to make it a succesor somehow. I realized it after uploading. My aircraft is called the P-68-FR. I do not know how to post a link in the comments to it, but I think you can find it on my profile. Please be understanding. I can try to fix it if you can not find it. Thanks.

@LieutenantSOT I am not sure how to do a forum. Kinda new to this game.
@LieutenantSOT What all does this alliance do? Stuff like NATO?
@Jaspy I have never seen a mini stuka lol go for it!

@rexrexThezion I would love to see that!

@LieutenantSOT might you join?
@LieutenantSOT And it probably won’t look near as good as my flying wing did lol
@LieutenantSOT I’ve never built anything much older than WW2. But i sure will try to cook something up!
@LieutenantSOT well thank ya! I actually needed some inspiration for a build. This was a very simple build compared to some of my flying messes. And one of my best!
@LieutenantSOT here is my presentation for yer challenge.
Also controls are normal. No yaw controls due to lateral instability when they are applied.
@LieutenantSOT no problem.
@LieutenantSOT I’ll will definetly try to put something together! I’m kinda on the development spree of flying wings. But I may do a micro fighter-bomber. Depends on what speaks to me the most....
it is an amazing aircraft so heres an upvote!
Lovely Aircraft! Here be me gift to ya’, an upvote!
Here’s an upvote for your entry! The only thing I would recommend is trying to build up more speed. But overall it is a great aircraft!
Here’s an upvote for your entry! Neat aircraft!
All entries are being graded
@Strikefighter04 oh okay. I get it now. You had a country named after that same word that I used in the opening line. Yeah I didn’t know that. This website never ceases to amaze me.
@mikoyanster I’ve got a new airplane idea but am going to need to experiment with the custom control surfaces. Never done one before.
@Strikefighter04 Why should I have to contact anybody about anything? Is there a rule here I’m missing?
@Strikefighter04 what ya mean?
@mikoyanster Welp. The drone project crashed and burned. Horribly. I might try something else. Any ideas cause now I got builders block!!!
Currently the drone kinda behaves like a F-16. Turns on a literally dime. I’m sure it will even out when I add more weight.

@mikoyanster Are drones allowed? I’m thinking of building a fictional attack drone.
@MajorSix Nice. Glad to have ya on board!
Deadline is October 1st. May change in time.
@chickenderp there is no official prize. It is mainly for fun.
@LieutenantSOT yes it can be a fictional or a replica aircraft
Yeah I wasn’t expecting to win. Lol. I’m just glad we got some brand new and awesome jets on here.
So keep it safe! And yourselfs as well. The world is currently falling apart.
This is an intresting concept. Somebody is surely going to reverse engineer this.

@TrojanAircraftSystems flys great now lol!
@Dude32 Oh. Well sorry if I seemed rude than. Yeah taht still wasen’t the problem. I just needed to set physics to high.

May I use for a build? Credit will be given of course.
T
When should we expect to see any results? Not being pushy, just curious.
Yeah, so I have no idea how to fis this. Sorry. Here’s an upvote though.
I will try to help ya. Give me a little bit. I may not even be able to do this but I will try!
Nice! Just saw your plane@Lordmono and it looks great
No problem Bird
