@andrewgarrison I was trying to figure out how to blend the cockpits into a nose cone, which is when this happened. I have all my settings on high, spawned in air, the nose cone falls off and reattaches itself 1/2 way down. Loving the beta options though
Very nice. Flies really well, I reduced the surface area of the control surfaces especially the elevators, the plane was a little too responsive. Besides that personal preference awesome build
@Quintasoarus I agree with you as far as the ingenuity of control in the plane without wing controls. This one just flies better aside from the pitch issue, but I had trouble keeping this under control
Thanks @Quintasoarus and @ahappyape. I have another version I'll upload latter than has more maneuverability. I had to cave a add a wing (no control surface still but acts like one) to a rotater, But it is still 99% thrust vector.
Thanks @ahappyape,@FlOu
And if you get tired of flying, drop it into the water and move the vtol up or down a bit and motor around instead. I think it needs a decent vtol lever change to compensate for the propeller thrust.
Works really well. I added two additional vtol nozzles attached to roll. This lets you drive off the end of uss tiny and then flip over to motor back to sure. Very good design
If you go up to fast or try and get forward momentum to quickly it has the dynamics of a trick kite, but once you stabilize this thing will take off like a rocket and maneuver like nothing else
@ahappyape Thanks for the rating, I've speculated that the drag is to high for it to really kick into gear. I might try another version where the props rotate in for high speed flight... If I can figure out how to coordinate the rotators with the vtol nozzles
@Tuffnut can I trade a land vehicle in for a second air? I have a bomber I can enter and a SAR plane, trading the weapons in for an air drop life raft. After all someone has to rescue those who get shot down right?
@LordofLego Thanks! I try and provide instructions when it isn't obvious how to fly this. I uploaded this with the instructions missing with the intent to go back and update once I had confirmed/tested some controls, but got side tracked
@LordofLego, I updated to provide some more instructions on how to fly. It is a little quirky to fly, but it will fly. I've had trouble doing the landing portion, on my phone. PC might be a little easier to control a landing
Thanks @ahappyape I am glad it still flies after "stealth" mode is activated. Or if you need to fake a crash scene, jettison the wings and fly away :-)
Nice beer belly on this. Love the synchronized swimming with vtol down

Thanks I think @ahappyape. .. I was playing around with spin stabilization. It actually makes a big difference in how the "missles travel
@rohan I accidentally made a successor of my own plane instead of the future of flight
Looks like you need an air inlet so engine can breath
@ahappyape they did some clean up and made this fly better then the rough cut I made
Very nice. Flies really well, I reduced the surface area of the control surfaces especially the elevators, the plane was a little too responsive. Besides that personal preference awesome build
Thanks @hypnotoad. Appreciate it

Well done
@Quintasoarus
@Halphas
Very nice design. Check out my copy, added a few modifications

Just uploaded an entry
Thanks @jheffernan
Now ig you made this a sliding miter saw that would be impressive
@A5mod3us this is the replacement to the plane I uploaded earlier this week.
Awesome. Although it looks like Mario has had some better days :)
Thanks @ahappyape,@FlOu And if you get tired of flying, drop it into the water and move the vtol up or down a bit and motor around instead. I think it needs a decent vtol lever change to compensate for the propeller thrust.
Thanks @FlOu
Awesome. You should do another with Mario on top of it
Thanks @StrykrIV @jimbojet
Doughnuts definitely
Very nice design. Love the spoked wheels.
I'm in
Works really well. I added two additional vtol nozzles attached to roll. This lets you drive off the end of uss tiny and then flip over to motor back to sure. Very good design
Interesting I will have to check this out later...
Now if you made this vtol stable tgat would be like a 100 star rating
Love the idea that if you can't win you will at least raise the body temperature of the competition
Thanks @lordoflego
To obliterate the target set of action group 1,2,3 as fast as possible. There will be nothing left but pieces
Thanks @kingdeadshot and @jimbojet
This is very creepy
Thanks @jimbojet

Great idea
@ahappyape I will check it out tonight/tomorrow
@ahappyape give this clunker a try. Maneuverability isn't the best but once it gets going with some forward air speed it doesn't do to bad
@LordofLego Thanks! I try and provide instructions when it isn't obvious how to fly this. I uploaded this with the instructions missing with the intent to go back and update once I had confirmed/tested some controls, but got side tracked

Awesome. You should have a minion holding the egg

Awesome design ss usual
@Nickasaurusrex not sure why this didn't register as a successor. .. let me know if you need me to re upload
