You're welcome. I strongly advise to read the wiki, everything is explained and it give some some awesome tips!

Can't wait to try it tonight! But both planes look great, that's a tough job to do when speed is supposed to match!
Do you think it would be easier to catch the ring if the back had an angled block?
Everyone tend to overpower his planes and seeing yours feel good : it requires better balance, and you nailed it! Some advice though : rotate your rear landing gears of 180° and you will take off a lot sooner and put your roll control surface far away from the body to have more efficiency. Good design!

This is so annoying this 1 star ratings... The devs said they should update the website next week and the votes won't be anonymous anymore so you'll know after that!
Anyway, I like your design, 5 stars from me!
That's what I like to see! very nice design. I think that if you rework a bit the rear of the ship it should work :
- remove the jet engine
- replace as much as you can the rear of the ship by a vertical stab, keeping the shape as close as possible to the original one.
Just like my Santa ship https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/H4qHoz/Santa-Flying
Haha I swear I've designed and name this more than one month ago, I don't want to upset ImFauxReal! And I save the risky wings because I really like to see them bend when pulling on my elevators
I didn't test it but I imagine that your wings keep breaking off. Try to swap them with structural wing, much more strong. Then you have 2 option, you can attach a classic wing at the tip of your wing. It would be only a control surface, nothing more or it will break easily ( toggle them in symmetric so they don't provide too much lift).
Or you can add the roll control on your horizontal stabs, you will loose roll velocity but gain on reliability.
Both of this Technics can be executed at the same time. Good luck!
Looks fantastic!

I mentionned this aircraft just before you build it! Looks perfect!
Looking great, can't wait to try it out!
Conson doesn't paint, Conson just build
Oui avec ton "VIVE LA FRANCE LIBRE" j'aurais du m'en douter! Je suis Francais temporairement aux US!
Generous incentive! But there is not a lot of info on the subreddit!
Could use a better paint job (details...)
Simple, efficient, even the paint job.
Not sure we have the same definition of VTOL in my contry but I like the original design
Just unstable enough!
Just move the rear landing gear between the radar disk and the main wings and you'll fly as a bird
Canadien alors?
So funny to see the elevators! It looks like a bird or a scallop, not sure yet...
Always loved the Northrop F-5!

Love the intakes! Very safe, Ilike them a little more unstable!
If not, add a detacher between the 2 planes so the big plane's fuel is taken in account. Of course release the detacher before take off.
Add a cockpit on the big plane and your problem is solved.
I like the concept and the look a lot but could use a custom paint job!
Conson, such a mysterious guy...
A little too fast for the target ideed, but I love the idea!
Looks like you found a new hobby, Nassassin the insectophile! Did you mod the weight of blocks to achieve such a density of fuel...?
I like unique design ;)

Not only the glider I can see!
Thick wings are genius

FYI Philip is one of the developers of the game.
Love the design!
I just saw this zero https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/kI1XE8/A6M-ZeroAgileFast But yours is even better! Bravo
Well thank you Philip!
I did make something similar! https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/fDef75/First-TRUE-glider
Very good looking! But why don't you put a cockpit at the back of the cockpit instead of the triangle block?
Moving back the wings just reduce maneuverability, the predecessor was better.
OperationDesertStorm, you should check out the new "Rules" page at the bottom of the page, I hope it will be instructive.
Adding a lot of nozzle don't make the plane faster FYI. 2 are enough, even 1 if you can make it symetric
Mine flies also and looks better!

I really don't get why you got downvoted... This design is sweet!
Someone had to say this design is horrible.
Not a smooth design at all!

A bit too unstable...
Great look!
Come on, the guy did perfectly the logo of the game and this is your comment...?
Amazing as usual! You should really come and join the Reddit community, I'm sure you would bring a lot and help for futur updates!
