I haven't uploaded in ages, wouldn't be surprised if some people had forgotten about me too. I'm also in the same boat, I have a load of unfinished creations that I likely won't upload.
I took apart your CP-150 and I didn't see anything inherently wrong with the gear, if you were to upload an unlisted version of your new airplane and tag me on it, I could try to recreate the issue and fix it or give you pointers on how to do so. If everything else fails, there are some nice user made gears here that could you could use with visual modification.
@CDRxavier lol yep. I made these long before countermeasures were added to the game. Come to think of it its more like chaff. I may revisit this and see if I can use the cloud or particles to block the missile, but I'm not sure.
@AdlerSteiner A while ago I was reading about the He-100, and I found this: " Performance with the 603N was projected to be 880 km/h (550 mph), in the same class as the Messerschmitt Me 262 pioneering jet fighter then entering service testing, which would have stood as a record for many years, even against specialist racing machines." wikipedia
I may make one, this is the first challenge I've been tempted to do in a while.
@HistoricBirds oh. Mine is USB connected too. If you want to use yaw with your joystick, without rudder pedals or a twist function you could using buttons. If your joystick has at least two buttons on it you can map them for left and right yaw.
I have a HOTAS T-Flight Thrustmaster Joystick. It doesn't have rudder pedals but has a rudder function by twisting the joystick. I've noticed that when I connect it in Simpleplanes the bindings are incorrect. I have to go in and reset the bindings to all axes to fly, you may have to go into your controls settings and and bind the joystick to get it to work.
Hope that helps, if you have any more questions feel free to ask.
@REW I have been building a tank using this chassis, and despite my best efforts I have done something wrong with the tracks and now they don't work very well. (they still work, but they appear to be snagging on something which is limiting my top speed to 3-4 mph) When I'm done, do you think you could help me get the tracks working properly again?
When you scale a wing down, the game treats the wing as the size it was before you scaled it down. For example, if you had a wing that you scaled down by 0.25, it would have the lift of four times it size.
@flyingsteve88 I watched the Hunger Games two days ago and thought it would be cool try and make something like that VTOL thing in SP, but you beat me to it.
This cockpit already looked impressive enough, but I've been pulling it apart to parts for my own cockpit and yours is amazing. I really liked how you did the artificial horizon too, I've been struggling with building my own for a while.
Also, do you mind if I directly use some of your parts in my plane?
@MrTyTheGreat the american bombers from tier one to top of tier three are great, most have good bomb loads and almost all have unnecessary amounts of .50 cals
Whew
Nice to see proper cockpit parts.
@ACE1089 I'm not gone, and I still play this game on a regular basis. Now that I'm in college, I just have the kind of free time I used too.
Alright, this is an airplane building game, lets see the Daladas of the Fates!
I've had enough trouble staying on task with my ship...
+3I had the pleasure if seeing one of these at the airport two weeks ago.
@RailfanEthan @DeezDucks ya'll should browse through my saved aircraft. I have tons of stuff I haven't uploaded because I'm not satisfied with it.
If you add some fins for downforce and stabilization, it can hit the speed of sound before the end of the runway.
+1@Kalanimcd I have 1.8 beta, it's just exam week so I have no free time.
It's going to be a while before I have a chance to try it, but I like the creative way you used the hollow fuselage to create the cockpit.
Wow. I haven't seen you in forever
You could make a nice rally version of that...

+3@CDRxavier you can also xml mod a gun to have super ridiculous spread and an insane rate of fire

This post reminded me of this click bait I saw yesterday.

@shipster If you're even in Stockholm, I would recommend visiting it. Its an impressive sight.
@shipster they raised it off the bottom and built a museum around it.
I saw this ship in person. One of the most impressive things I've seen.

I've been in school for four weeks....
neat!
+1@Jacobdaniel yeah, good point
+2@flyingsteve88 I watched the Hunger Games two days ago and thought it would be cool try and make something like that VTOL thing in SP, but you beat me to it.
@Jacobdaniel you looking too see if going to Encampment?
+1@UssInvincible Ah, thank you!
@UssInvincible I've figured that out, I don't have the time to download all the AA's on the site to see the rotation mechanism
Can't forget the rotatank
+1@CSP27 No problem. Although you still have a long way to go, you already show quite a bit of potential
It's neat being able to see the progression of this tank through the various versions posted.
Could someone link me to the original?
@RailfanEthan @Chancey21 I know @HellFireKoder has all of the versions
+2@RamboJutter Once I finish working out my planes takeoff quirks, could you make some decals for it that are flush with the fuselage?
@TBONEdesigns @horsesdontbarf the I-16 is basically the I-15 but without the top wings, as far as looks go.
@MisterT cool!

+1@EternalDarkness yeah. Its possible, just not the most practical
Shifting water for trim is an interesting concept, especially for an airship

@TVOPviral I'm still here, I've gotten busy with school. Once summer begins I'll likely be here more often

@993619 Thanks!
I am going to have see if can get this to work with tracks.

+1"Tater man, take me by the hand..."
@CDRxavier alright. Will do when I get home
