@LunchBox If you're meaning to enter this into the challenge I'm afraid it is not in compliance with rule number two.
"It must be a plane that can land and take off successfully in other words, you can’t use an explosion to blow the cockpit at extreme speeds.
It has to fly well. The wings can't be shaking like crazy."
I'm willing to help you if you need any help.
@SledDriver yeah, I try to stay away from super specific instructions. Though I do let people know how to control the plane still allowing for plenty of freedom and creativity on their part.
Yes, @SledDriver I agree, the most important thing is performance. And I like the idea of build consistency. Where you can have the same basic control system for each plane. Regardless of the shade or outward appearance.
Cool, @SledDriver I've tried to do some perfect fuselage shaping manually and it is really hard. It requires a calculator and a lot of time and patience.
ok @50CalChicken
@50CalChicken Yep, it's fun to cruise around on this thing.
@50CalChicken I will check it out.
@50CalChicken it is quite powerful. Only my biggest airplane required two of these jets.
@50CalChicken Oh okay, By The Way got it.
@50CalChicken Make whatever you want. I'll just be interested to see what it is.
@50CalChicken no problem, Glad to help
@50CalChicken Let me know if the link worked.
@50CalChicken
Here's the link to some tips and basic flight principles.
+1Interesting color, very nice interior
+1@50CalChicken You said, "BTW my review on this" does that mean pin the comment.
+1@50CalChicken Thanks for the kind comments.
@50CalChicken BTW? Do you mean pin comment
@50CalChicken Thank you! I worked real hard to get it to those capabilities.
@50CalChicken That most likely means it was tail heavy try moving your center of mass forward.
+1@50CalChicken yep
@50CalChicken Designing large aircraft is not exactly in my field of expertise, but... this did turn out pretty good.
Thanks, @50CalChicken Believe me it was hard to make. but a fun experience.
@50CalChicken I can do that. Are you familiar with XML editing and the fine-tune adjustment tool?
I can have the link to the dock by sometime tomorrow
+1@50CalChicken I'd be happy to.
Should I make a form or is there a better way?
@50CalChicken oh, sorry
Well just so long as you're having fun.
@50CalChicken With time comes skill, I've been at it for over 7 months.
@50CalChicken Glad you like it.
@50CalChicken I did, It would make a pretty good match between it and a convoy of AA tanks.
+2Nice
@50CalChicken Cool
@50CalChicken I'll be uploading something tomorrow too.
Okay, @50CalChicken I'll be sure to check it out.
@50CalChicken thank you! That's what I try to keep it at.
Thanks, @50CalChicken Most people don't truly appreciate my build style.
@50CalChicken Sure
Oh, @LunchBox LOL You got me that time. :)
@50CalChicken Oh ok, I hope you have a good time on your kraken expedition.

Thanks! @50CalChicken I'm glad you liked it. Was it the paint job?
Thank you, @DPSAircraft I value a good description.
@SledDriver Probably the first.
+1@SledDriver Yes, I like that in your builds. I also like that you harness the power of airbrakes to get really cool but simple movements.
@SledDriver yeah, I try to stay away from super specific instructions. Though I do let people know how to control the plane still allowing for plenty of freedom and creativity on their part.
Yes, @SledDriver I agree, the most important thing is performance. And I like the idea of build consistency. Where you can have the same basic control system for each plane. Regardless of the shade or outward appearance.
@SledDriver Yeah, that's a smart thing to do. That way you can make all your planes perfectly symmetrically shaped.
Cool, @SledDriver I've tried to do some perfect fuselage shaping manually and it is really hard. It requires a calculator and a lot of time and patience.
May I ask, what software do you use to calculate the size of each fuselage, or do you just do it yourself?
@LunchBox Fast alright, it blows the cockpit at millions of miles an hour.
Okay, @LunchBox I'll check it out.
I am built a plane that uses these jets. Link to it
Nice little plane, you did a good job designing the jet.
+1@TheSavageManZ Ok, cool. Once again good job.
+1Awesome video! How did you get the recreation so perfect.
I'm sorry, does the tailgate opening mechanism not work? If so sorry about that.
