Skyward | Fictional Aircraft Challenge

8,137 DeltaLinkAviation  1.4 years ago

For the first time, I've decided to host a challenge. In an attempt to inspire other players to build more unique aircraft and trying their hand at a more creative approach, this challenge will only feature fictional aircraft.

Sky

𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞:

I challenge you to build any fictional aircraft (manned or unmanned), whether it may be a plane, helicopter, or even an airship. You can be as creative as your imagination allows you, but you must keep factors such as maneuverability and efficiency in mind, depending on the type/role of your aircraft. Your submission should be complete with a color scheme of your choosing (bonus points for including any shade of blue) and may include symbols, logos, or decals if you so desire. Below are some specific rules for this challenge that you should follow.

Rules for this challenge:

• To enter this challenge, your submission must be a complete fictional concept (no replicas).
• Part limit of 850. (Disable the drag calculations on parts that do not need to have their drag calculated).
• Builds that include mods will not be accepted. (XML modding is ok).
• Must link your creations to this post.
• Multiple submissions are allowed.
• Each submission must have a description of your creation which should include all controls, and information about the role of the aircraft.

Additional information:
Selected judges will judge each submission based on the design, maneuverability, and efficiency of the aircraft to perform in the described role. Selected winners (1st, 2nd, & 3rd) will be featured on the Skyward discord server and in a YouTube video showcasing their creations that will be linked to this post.

    The deadline has passed and unfortunately no builds have been submitted. I had high hopes for this challenge, but it was a flop.
