Waaaaay back when the Simple in SimplePlanes meant something

In order to celebrate SimplePlanes’ upcoming 11th birthday , I have decided to make a challenge.

This one is pretty Simple

In this challenge, you’re gonna make an aircraft. But the aircraft must be that using old SimplePlanes parts. Here’s the rules.

Rules

The rules are pretty SIMPLE

• NO FUNKY TREES

• NO NORMAL FUSELAGE

• NO GLASS FUSELAGE

• NO SMOOTH FUSELAGE

• NO VR PARTS

• no helicopter engines

• no gyroscopes

• No guns, Rockets, missiles, bombs, cannons.

• no flight computer.

And no Funky Trees.

literally none of that

Edit: do not use the large retractable landing gear, wing landing gear, or rear landing gears on your challenge entry.

Want bigger propellers? You’ll need to Make them using rotators, wings, and vtol engines and nozzles (at least in this challenge)

In this challenge, you are going to be using, blocks, and making aircraft the way it was when SimplePlanes first came out 11 years ago

These are the engines that you could use for the aircraft back then (the inlet and the small inlet are missing in the image above but they could be used too)
Edit: don’t worry, the propeller engine and the small propeller engine are here (the two propellers in the middle next to the cockpit ) they were removed a few patches later, but they still exist. All you gotta do is add them as a sub assembly part

Instead of major Chad, you had the plain old passenger,( which you can see on the thumbnail of this post,).

Basically, it’s like any other challenge, except you will be using blocks and all of the old parts from SimplePlanes, and only those parts (you can still use detachers)

I’ll be rating your design out of 4

1. can it function?

2. does it look good?

3. Does it function well

4. Do I like it (does the paint job look good? Does the plane itself look good? or is it both)

5. is it Simple

rewards

Edit REWARDS have been tweaked (by me)

🥇: a spotlight and from me and an upvote

🥈 : a spotlight from me and an upvote

🥉:one spotlight from me, and an upvote

If I’m not able to spotlight you (because you have more points than me) then don’t worry, cause I’ll be making a foreign post going down the winners, and honestly, it doesn’t matter whether I can or cannot spotlight your build. You you Win. That’s it.

if you want to give me a way then I can reward people in my future challenges, let me know, and I’ll keep it in mind (in a way that shows that they want whether I can or cannot spotlight them)

Note: I can make a challenge alone, but the rewards part is what I don’t get, if you can tell me how the part with the spotlight and the upvotes work, I could really appreciate it.

NEW Deadline: you have until December 15 to get this done, I won’t be accepting anymore afterwards.

Edit: It will take a while for me to grade your entries, won’t be able to do them all in one day

by clicking here you will watch the first ever trailer for SimplePlanes, here’s where you can get an idea for what you can make as an entry here, I QUITE RECOMMEND YOU DO SO OTHERWISE YOUR ENTRY MAY NOT MEET RULES, or you can search on Google for some ideas.

why I’m making this

Not only am I making this to celebrate this games 11th birthday but also to show how far this game has come, it’s basically how far we’ve come from 2014 all the way until now. (and maybe to see if a belt like this could potentially work in SimplePlanes two, which I think might not do so properly)

Edit: here are some other vids you can see for ideas : vid 1, Vid 2

Challenge Status: Closed

I will be grading the remaining entries (with the time that I have available)
