I'm releasing my beta version of my new wing design. The body of the airplane is really basic, but the wings are awesome! I'm working on a more realistic airplane body, but hey, why not share now. Remember you saw it first at Walrus Aircraft. Tested on highest settings. Flys like a dream! Rate if you like, and of course give comments.

    @Authtos I agrree, but the drag was not so bad with this one simple design. Have you tried unpacking the asset bundes yet? We don't quite haveod support yet, so adjusting existing assets is all we can share.

    It looks nice but as I've experienced making these nose cones larger myself they create exponential amounts of drag (which can only be avoided I guess with deleting drag stats from the part). You will have a huge probably later on getting a decent speed out of a plane with this design without adding massive amounts of engines.

    Forgot to mention to always make a backup of any work you do with the raw XML.

    @Teus @ZFM99 Thanks for the ratings. @JMicha4 the beta version is free... see the link above. You don't need it for this. All I did was add parts and adjust the settings in the xml under: C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\LocalLow\Jundroo\SimplePlanes\AircraftDesigns This is for windows of course.
