(CLOSED)

Results are in.

I'd like to start by saying that this was a VERY difficult challenge to judge. The requirements were very stringent, and with so many entries, I had to be a little tough on my judgement of some of the aircraft entered. It was a long process, and I'm sorry that it took me until today to get around to posting the results.

So, without further delay, the winners of The TEN PARTS Challenge are:

1st place: karlosdarkness! With this very cool 10 part VTOL!

2nd place: Unknown1 with his 10-piece Hypnoplane!

3rd place: Delphinus with his Rapidus!

Congratulations to our winners, and to everyone else, a hearty thank you for your participation in this competition. Stay tuned for the next challenge when the official update releases!

(I know this says it requires beta, but I tried downloading it into the standard game and it works. The save file contains no beta parts, so it should work just fine.)

Alright ladies and gents! It's time for another CHALLENGE!

This time around, the objective is a little different.

You must build a plane consisting of ONLY TEN PARTS. It must take-off, and land, and may do so conventionally, VTOL, or any variation there-of.

Planes will be scored on how well they perform, as well as how well they look.

You may use any means you like to build your plane, but you may not use modded engines.

!!!YOU MAY ONLY USE STANDARD PARTS, NO BETA PARTS!!!

Prizes are as follows:

1st - 9 5-star ratings
2nd - 5 5 star ratings
3rd - 3 5 star ratings

Contest ends Friday August 21st, and entries will be judged on August 22nd. All entries will receive a 5 star rating. Contestants may enter up to two aircraft, no more. Entries must be posted as a successor to qualify.

Good luck, and may the best engineer win!

    Nobody even looked at my plane, rated it, or gave me feedback. Meanwhile, the creator gets 818 points for hosting. Not very fair in my opinion

    I have finished up my submission under the name D-54 Butterfly. I bet it can be mistaken as a glider. Oh and good luck to the other contestants!
