Offering to help and/or fix planes

1,396 Biggie88smalls  8.4 years ago

I am offering to fix any planes to get them to fly better, i am not offering to redesign or make the plane look better. I am actually quite experienced in fixing planes despite how new my current account is.

    @Biggie88smalls links work on any platform, just use the same format as normal:

    @skua I meant to say bourban not bourbon, and the other was better0bourbon with a 0 instead of a 8. I am yet to find out if i can put links to things on my new tablet

    @Biggie88smalls I had a look but there are no planes on u/bourbon and u/better8bourbon doesn't seem to exist. Can you give me a link?

    I actually didnt think of that. That center of lift is a spy!

    @Earthbenderrwefa @Biggie88smalls just in case you were curious, I managed to fix it - it turns out that wings actually only work if the point the right way, despite them not having an aerofoil modelled. As a result it had basically no lift, because the main wing sections had been rotated 90 degrees around the yaw axis. I just had to rebuild it without doing that, which was a pain, but it works now.

    @Biggie88smalls that's quite alright, it's an awful one to try and sort. I have a couple of ideas, though, I'm determined that it will fly eventually

    @Skua i dont think i can fix this plane without ruining it. ive played with this sorta idea for some planes, it ether works with the plane or doesnt and in this case it didnt. The first plane i was asked to fix, i couldnt, how bout that.

    @Earthbenderrwefa it's weird, I've used VTOL for exactly this with some success before. Unfortunately there's not really anywhere good to put RCNs on that design, so I'll have to work around it. I've mounted the wings on rotators now

    Don't use Vtol for thrust vectoring, my vehicle did that too, and add rcn...
