switch the position on roll and pitch controls in the primary wings, then change its airfoil to flat bottom. Ditch the front-most fuel block and gears for a structural block then add retractile landing gears... this way, the plane will gain a little bit of maneuverability..
@Yuvalk based on your plane's drag points, weight and number of engines it could easily get past 1100+mph... but from my run it could barely pass 1000 mph.. also medium jet's flare is pale yellow... this is a sign that it doesnt get max air (it still has enough to be operational but not the maximum amount of air)... VTOL jets are tricky since they dont show any sign of not getting enough air... it is a good idea to attach a small jet.. if it shows a strong orange flare then your VTOLs are getting air with extra for a small jet.. as for where to put the additional intakes... I have no idea, your plane flies good as it is... just ignore my comment because I have a policy (more of an OCD really) to make sure all engines in my planes have all the air they need...
@SemedolasPT thank you for rating this model.. Yes, this one has no controls.. If you notice the upload date you will find that this was made on early beta phase of the game... During that time we had very limited parts and techniques to make a proper heli (no vtol part, large jet etc.) hence the "properllers" are made of the sturdy structural wings that cannot have control surfaces and a crapton of jets facing down... I hope you had fun watching this thing hover a little bit then just rotate wildly... Hehe... Thank you gor rating
having semi-symmetrical airfoils on vertical stabs is not a good idea because it make the plane tilt to one side while flying... you plane looks good though...
because you CoT is below your CoL and there is more drag at the top of your plane it pitches up by itself considerably.. to counter this try using semi-symetric or flat bottom airfoils on the tail fins
your wings fall off at high speed. divide your wings to two parts the first half is structural wings then attach you engines there.. the other half is primary wings to add some control surface
remove the landing gear at the tail then move the wing mounted gears back behind the CoM for faster take off.. move your ailerons (roll control surface) away from your CoL so that it would become more effective
4 stars for looks! you should lower the back part (what do you call that in star wars?) so that it doesnt smash itself at the start of the flight scene and breaking some wings off.. I tried this plane at SAM just to see if it flies... you to improve its maneuverability.

@Sabro LOL! dont be to mad at me...you are clearly on the wrong by violating the rules in this site! there is a little button below the page labelled as "Rules" maybe you should click that...

this plane goes out of control easily when combining roll and pitch... roll isnt as responsive so try moving your ailerons further away from the CoL,... pitch is in a good position but I think it would be better of you decrease the size of your elevators to decrease its responsiveness a bit...
Unclear instructions!!!! 1.) Pull VTOL slider all the way up before take off.... 2.) when at suitable altitude, cut the engines off then retract landing gears after that pull the VTOL slider all the way down..... 3.) start the engines again then press detacher group 1.... 4.) try hitting USS Tiny with this thing!!
I'll rate this 3 stars because it doesnt fly and the engines doesnt have enough fuel...... however, this is very creative!! if you can make this fly and perhaps add a a "glove" or "hand" shaped body, people would go crazy over this!..... also, make an account here in this website! its free!
its like a jack in a box... you should make the small prop pop out at the same time as the top cover blows away.. In theory, this should be possible by playing with the detacher's for setting
3 stars for looks!! but this plane likes to roll to one side alot.. and move your landing gears just behind the CoM so that you plane would take off early
move your landing gears just behind the two engines for faster take off
you need more vertical stabs...

elevators are too big and vertical stabilizers are too thin

separation is not always clean.. the small craft almost bumps the main plane every time... I like how your plane yaws
because you CoT is below your CoL and there is more drag at the top of your plane it pitches up by itself considerably.. to counter this try using semi-symetric or flat bottom airfoils on the tail fins
simple... yet really stable.. i like it
your roll and pitch controls are switched (or is this intentional?)
needs more fuel
use structural wings on wing parts that doesnt have control surface
your wings fall off at high speed. divide your wings to two parts the first half is structural wings then attach you engines there.. the other half is primary wings to add some control surface
all your engine doesnt have enough air... you need more intakes or just reduce the amount of engine you have
remove the landing gear at the tail then move the wing mounted gears back behind the CoM for faster take off.. move your ailerons (roll control surface) away from your CoL so that it would become more effective
this is actually pretty good
@tayl0rd its alright as long as my plane is linked as the predecessor...
@WeeBabySeamus I like that movie!!
LOL! creative

it flies great! the main fuselage is a bit wider than the real DH.98 Mosquito... overall, good job!
@tayl0rd Thanks! you should check out this dragon's predecessor! Its all thanks to @CataclysmicAegis that I was able to create this...

now this one handles like a real bomber... better than the first version

I did a perfect landing from 1000ft drop without any parts exploding!! awesome! and did you notice that your props are hitting each other?

@SemedolasPT ahhh that... I used an exploit that lets me clip parts together to create that landing gear
@SemedolasPT. What glitch?
structural wings can make your plane less flimsy
need more vertical stabilizers
Creative! I like what you did with the exhaust
its like a jack in a box... you should make the small prop pop out at the same time as the top cover blows away.. In theory, this should be possible by playing with the detacher's for setting
its really hard to control
5-star for the sweep wing mechanism
LOL
use structural wings when you want to attach something heavy under the wings
Designs like there need big primary wings in "flat bottom" airfoil to support the additional drag caused by the floats...
Looks good!
3 stars for looks!! but this plane likes to roll to one side alot.. and move your landing gears just behind the CoM so that you plane would take off early
Awesome!!
