    @SpiritusRaptor no sweat man! i love simple planes and want to see people create what they want, so i give them mods :P (not having to worry about fuel, or attaching something without a pylon to a wing frees people to dream big and get creative, which is what the game is about.)

    I know what you are saying... Basically it comes down to which of the two joined rotators becomes attached to the wing. The simple way is start with one attached where you would like and then 'mod' the other via xml, to the same coordinates...Hope this makes sense @Bakon

    @SpiritusRaptor Here is one: Just make two rotators together attached to a wing. Only pitch works..

    @SpiritusRaptor wow, I tried to properly interpret what you tried to say, that comment had some typos. It seemed to work. Thanks!

    Detach it be detaching the small wing its attached to which is attached to the fuselage. Also be careful not to move the taileron, the shape can be chnaged but not moved @Bakon

    I need a way to salvage the multi-rotator, and make it still work.. I tried many ways, just failed. just pitch and roll.

    Awesome! I flew around the new island, dropped all dropables, landed at Murphy's, took off, flew to Tarpley airport, landed there, then flew back and landed at Murphy's. The flying experience was of course wonderful, but what was most astonishing was that I still had 100% fuel left when I finally landed at Murphy's again.
