@Minecraftpoweer I think I'll have to make a new Maverick model alltogether as this one is smaller than the inferno missile. The inferno looks like it's based on the Hellfire missile which is 0.69m shorter than the AGM-65 Maverick
Sleek and shiny! I like it also, you have no idea how happy I get when people invert their propeller engines like this. More often than not, the Propellers will both be spinning in the same direction which would create unpreferable roll in real life.
The more important question is how do you give extra points to people for things like challenges? I'd like make a challenge but I don't know how to give rewards other than a nice comment, upvote, and spotlight. @Tully2001 @Awsomur @DerekSP
@Minecraftpoweer Sure! I've never directly collaborated with anyone yet. Do you know how to attach parts to bombs and missiles. I'm guessing it may work the same as the smoke trail mechanism.
@Minecraftpoweer Yeah maybe swap out those Boom50s for more realistic looking JDAMs and those Infernos for Mavericks. I made a player controlled AGM-65 Maverick this morning but I still don't know how to link parts to weapons. Might upload those if I figure it out. for now the Guardian and Interceptor make good AIM-9s and AIM-120s.
@Minecraftpoweer They are custom and I disabled the collisions. It might be something involving the spring I put in them. It's not a big deal but if you're doing slow motion and looking from the underside it's a bit of a bother.
@Minecraftpoweer Yeah I'm not sure exactly what it does. In my F-18 it makes the landing gears pop out for whatever reason. at least it doesn't explode though.
@F104Deathtrap I saw that the page didn't include inputs like Activate1 - Activate8 so I added them. It allows for toggleable controls. I use them a lot in my builds.
I think I'll go for a combined Jet/Propeller bomber. Maybe a miniture B-36 Peacemaker. @SkrillerPlays is there a limit of how many entries per person and what kind of weapons I can use like missiles?
This is such a good design for just 100 parts! You really captured the smooth design of the SU-35. Something I do in my builds that you can do here is use the resizable intake blocks in the cockpit as you can use the trim on them as those rungs around the canopy. it adds that extra bit of detail while keeping the same part count.
@TheNotNewGuy No I disabled collisions. I think it had something to do with the suspension as I had to max it out further than the game normally allows.
@BroAeronautics I do plan on making this into a Super Hornet at some point but I've always perfered single seat fighters. I could always extend the canopy backwards into the two seat versions. Correct me if I'm wrong but between the F-18C and F-18D, is there no difference in shape/size besides the longer canopy for the extra seat?
@Razor3278 I'll definitely tag him once I complete the Blue Angel. Right now I got the yellow accents and a number "6" on the tail fins. Im debating whether or not I should add the big "US NAVY" font on the underwings as it won't be able to mirror and I hate not having things aligned right. Any other fonts will just be too small and I'm not that patient.
@Tully2001 I think it might be random to an extent as even with a default plane library, creations like the Wasp, Hellkeska, Little Bugger, Kicking Fish, and a few others would never spawn. I'm guessing one of the requirements is that it has some sort of aircraft engine, pitch/yaw/roll controls, and again that seven wing limit.
@BroAeronautics Thats somewhere next on my list. I'm not sure if I should build it off this one or start brand new. Right now I'm making a Blue Angels varient and I'm new to detailing planes so theres that. @Razor3278 Thanks for the link I now have a working smoke trail.
@plane918273645 Something I recomend doing is reversing the direction of the right propeller as in real life I think that might cause some unwanted roll action. Other than that, This plane is amazing! It's like some some nation isn't able to buy modern aircraft so instead they take old ones and add all the new gizmos like flares and fancy missiles.
I was very suprised by the ammount of guns you managed to pack into this thing. I think I was close to taking out the USS Tiny using only guns. I crashed on the deck then into the water but thank goodness for buoyancy!
You know, theres ships like this in Star Wars called "Uglies" where they mix and match parts to starfighters and some of them are quite ugly. I think they're mostly used by pirates and places that can't afford whole ships.
@noobs Are you playing on mobile? I play on PC and have high physics settings.. it may have something to do with that as when I go in slow motion mode the wheels pop through for whatever reason.
I made a SNECMA Coleoptere a long time ago which was a US jet similar to this built in 1959. When I built it, I don't think gyroscopes were in the game so I definitely need to add one. It's nice to see you got one of these weird aircraft to fly well.
@koryg Really? The only similarity between the Hellkeska and the F-14 I see is the variable wing sweep. The F-14 has a much larger gap between the engines and has two vertical stabilizers as well as a much different intake design.
@Minecraftpoweer I think I'll have to make a new Maverick model alltogether as this one is smaller than the inferno missile. The inferno looks like it's based on the Hellfire missile which is 0.69m shorter than the AGM-65 Maverick
@Minecraftpoweer The Cleaver missile would have to be scaled down a bit to fit inside. Is there any way to disable the folding wings of the Cleaver?
@I guess take out the cockpit, engine, fuel tank, Boom50s and attach it to a Cleaver missile that flies maybe 50% faster?
@Minecraftpoweer Yeah this wasn't intended to be a subassembly. If I were to make this into a missile model I'd disable the control surfaces.
@FastDan Ahh I see. what if they don't have that many creations?
@FastDan Like upvoting deupvoting and reupvoting multiple times?
@Minecraftpoweer
@Minecraftpoweer I've built the Maverick as a miniature plane. I'll link you in it.
Sleek and shiny! I like it also, you have no idea how happy I get when people invert their propeller engines like this. More often than not, the Propellers will both be spinning in the same direction which would create unpreferable roll in real life.

@Planeboi947 Yeah you have to take off from the air but once you're flying it's quite maneuverable.
@Minecraftpoweer Alright I hope you enjoy. Make sure to read the controls.
@Minecraftpoweer
@Minecraftpoweer In my F-18 comments?
@Minecraftpoweer They are custom and I disabled the collisions. It might be something involving the spring I put in them. It's not a big deal but if you're doing slow motion and looking from the underside it's a bit of a bother.
@Minecraftpoweer Yeah I'm not sure exactly what it does. In my F-18 it makes the landing gears pop out for whatever reason. at least it doesn't explode though.
Note: Do not fire in slow motion.. Things that shouldn't go boom go boom.
@F104Deathtrap I saw that the page didn't include inputs like Activate1 - Activate8 so I added them. It allows for toggleable controls. I use them a lot in my builds.
I like the detail you got in while keeping it under 200 parts. Nice work!
If you have the Overload mod, you can set the input of the landing light to "-LandingGear" so when the gears are down, the light is on
Beautiful! I love all the detailing and I'm glad you liked my rotary bomb system.
@CRJ900Pilot I feel honored :)
@MailboxIsMyGender Why? I thought High School pacer tests were behind me.
I think I'll go for a combined Jet/Propeller bomber. Maybe a miniture B-36 Peacemaker. @SkrillerPlays is there a limit of how many entries per person and what kind of weapons I can use like missiles?

@TheNotNewGuy Thanks! It took a while to get the nose gear to not explode on takeoff/landing.

@Razor3278 Sure! I'll tag you and EliteArsenals4 somewhere in the description.
Is that a Thumb-thumb from spy kids?

@trolman Have you been playing Sea of Thieves?

I don't know if I would call this WWII with that loadout but those weapons work great! I love how the missiles are angled as they fire.
I was very suprised by the ammount of guns you managed to pack into this thing. I think I was close to taking out the USS Tiny using only guns. I crashed on the deck then into the water but thank goodness for buoyancy!
Nice job! I really like the fact that there's three engines as that's not something you see very often.
Now to get a WWII plane and start a dogfight. Nice work!
@Vayloz I made an updated version:

@Mustang51 Nice. Can't wait to see what comes out! also sorry for turning this aircraft's comment section into a conversation thread.
@Mustang51 all my recent aircraft use it so if you've been able to fly any of them from the past 3-ish months that means it works!
@noahlizard7 I'd say use the transform tool to nudge connected parts into the aircraft

Really puts into perspective how small all my creations are. Nice work!
