Ornithopter battleship

3,160 GenericWhiteGuy  5.6 years ago
Auto Credit Based on GenericWhiteGuy's ornithopter

This flapping chunk of steel cuts through everything (ground only) like a hot knife through room temperature butter (preferably with no salt crystals). With this you can crack open a ship with the boys on a Sunday afternoon, whiffing in that cold autumn breeze with a side of severed limbs and the lack of self confidence. From now on, every day is christmas, only a bit less happy and a bit more death, but hey! At least you're not the one dying. Besides the PTSD and the never-ending spiral into madness you'll be fine. ish. This bad boy comes equipped with 2 miniguns which tear apart molecules in the blink of an eye, an autocannon that you would definitely not want pointed at you, a cleaver 6 pack that neatly lifts itsslf from the main frame and some bombs that you don't even need, because by the time you get close enough, they'll be dead from self inflicted injuries caused by the fear of the sight of this thing! Fly safe and give em' hell!

Specifications:

Flight: Spawn in air (no idea how to make it take off)
Stalling speed - around 50 mph
Phys settings - Can fly in any setting
Max speed - 300 mph?
Water friendly? - no

Controls: VTOL up to flap
AG's:
1 - activates 2 front miniguns (front sides)
2 - activates autocannon (front bottom)
3 - activates ATS missile pack (middle).

Oh and it has mechanical pitching.

Enjoy
([I spent a long time on this so you better heckin' enjoy or I'll end your game])

    @Zyvx well, I did kinda "lie" I guess. I had an idea and after that got another one and so on. I've been building for quite a bit and just dealt with the lag. All i can say is that the next version has 480+ parts.

    This is actually a pretty fun build to fly. It's surprisingly fast too all things considered. If you were to do it again, I'd recommend moving the centre of lift back a bit somehow by either adding weight to the nose or adding a large tail section/wing. Just means you can glide at a decent speed without having to worry about surprise backflips.
    .
    Other than that though, this is a pretty good build. A solid 10/11.
    .
    Edit: Added an extra point after realising having 9 out of 11 like that probably isn't a great idea.

    I feel like you've taken my crown when it comes to comedic descriptions, nuked it, but it in a blender, added a few drops of my tears and molded a new one out of it.
    .
    It truly is a masterpiece.
    .
    ... As for the build, I'll try and remember to download it later when I'm not at work.

    @Zyvx well, I do have a few ideas I could add, but I'd need a more powerful machine to run it. This thing already lags me quite a bit and takes half a minute to load into the game to do a simple test flight and that's on the lowest possible settings. I do plan on gathering enough resources to get a computer so then I could create bigger and better looking things. Untill then my imagination is quite limited to my phone's capabilities. Take care.

    @GenericWhiteGuy not yet anyway, good answer, later down the road a light bulb will come on, and you got a version 2. I think a ornithopter this cool will be nice to see another in the later future. No pressure though. Keep up the awesome work.

    @Zyvx thank you! But no. I have no clue what I could add to this. Not yet anyway.

    Nice and big, cool work here, i get the funny feeling you have more plans for this one. Its definitely the biggest ornithopter that I have seen so far. Awesome job.

    Haha right on man. I’m sure if anyone can figure out five wing segments it’s you! Keep up the good work :) @GenericWhiteGuy

    @Hyattorama this is the body and wings of my NR, but it has 20 pistons instead of 10 and I changed the initial wing position. Plus made a few other tweaks, enough to make it look different enough and then just went from there. I'd like to try and make a 5 wing segment ornithopter next, but I have low hopes of it actually working. Enough rambling, thank you!

    @Hyattorama an ornithopter finally :D This took around 8 hours. That long because my phone barely handles it and most of the time was spent on waiting for it to load.
