@JackTheBestBoss I AM working on something. I've been away too long, I missed the newest update and there are so many people making top quality planes now! I was working on a B29 for someone but several people put up really good ones in the last couple months so that frees me up to make a plane I've wanted to build for a looooooong time. I can't say what it is, but I will give a hint: it's pre-WW2 and it's gorgeous.
If you use rotators set to freespin and attach gyros, you can stabilize any (and every) axis you want! Gyros are tticky, and it might not look pretty, but you can absolutely do this.
@KidKromosone That's so cool! I'm a quite fan of a few Mig designs, but the 17 is definitely the most underrated plane they made. The refined agility and afterburner must have been a real thrill.
Realistic, functional and beautiful, especially the cockpit. If you had used 1,000 parts it would be impressive but only 500? Amazing! To make something with this much detail that almost anyone can fly is both skill and thought. Great job.
You will find that realistic mass doesn't always mean realistic performance. People can XML mod the plane for you if you upload it, or you can learn how to mod it yourself. Just keep in mind that thoroughly testing it is better than going over the numbers.
WALRUS! You never fail to wow me with your builds, this thing is magical. You should check out a concept artist named Ian McQue, he painted a whole series of flying boats in a very similar style. But mostly, congratulations, this is great.
@Alienbeef0421 That is so like me, to overlook the Hawk. I do ok with WW2 Brit designs, but their Cold War aircraft are an area that I'm just beginning to familiarize.
@Sgtk I've never been to Europe, but I have read there are rivers every 50 miles or so throughout the coninent. Vehicles like this were vital supply lines, especially on the offensive. When I see people posting about the heavy German tanks, all I can think is "good luck actually getting anywhere in that thing," but I suppose mobility is less of an issue when the front comes to you.
Pretty, very convincing. Reminds me of the zippy attack jets of the 1960s. I really like the lines here, like an F-5 / A-4 hybrid, very pretty. And now, some nitpicks: the Vulcan is a 20mm, the 30mm rotary is called Avenger and it is probably too big for this agile little guy. On the other hand, you could probably fit a 30mm Gast gun, like the SU-28 has.
NICE JOB! I rode in one of these, very interesting truck. On one hand, it's got a ton of torque. On the other hand, they top out around 30 or 35 mph, and I mean "oh my god, the engine sounds like it's about to explode" top out. Loud. Very limited gearbox. She certainly swims though, and can even fight the current a bit if she has to. Keep away from the plants, though. Anyone who owns one will tell you how fun it is cleaning seaweed out of the axles, suspension, etc.
@Rodrigo110 I see. I also agree that it would be nice. It would also be a large undertaking for the dev team, probably larger than the last two updates, but it would be cool.
You've got good taste!
@Minecraftpoweer Hopefully you won't lose any functionality, thumbs are important!
BRUTAL
This is the best kind of crazy!
The mystery machine!
How about you? Just returned, any ideas?
Awww, Mig17s are the BEST! Fast, maneuverable, beautiful. This thing looks great!

@ProcessedPlAnEs Thanks for the spotlight!
Whoa
@mikoyanster yes sir!
"HEY! THIS THING IS AMAZ-oh, Mikoyanster, right."
@rbiemer Use the gyro!
I'm a sucker for a good Double-Wasp build and this thing is good.
Excellent choice, and the final product is beautiful.
@rbiemer Youll need to do a LOT of tweaking and testing to get it to work properly, but it should be possible.

Lookin mighty nice!
I am so glad someone made this thing, but more importantly, I'm happy someone made it so well. Great job!
@TheWhistlingDeath Oh yeah! Thanks!
@ACMECo1940 Thanks!
@ACMECo1940 I made this back before we had flares, not sure if they're still relevant now.
@RailfanEthan Yeah! Some Patsy Cline, or maybe a little Merle Travis would go perfect with this.
@ThePilotDude CERTAINLY! Good luck!
XD

Its been a while since I played around with the guns, but if the past is any measure, I'm pretty sure that would melt the game.
Is that the 15 or the 17? Very pretty.
Thats kinda pretty. Much prettier than the usual "half my build fell apart like it was held together by wet masking tape" silliness that ensues.

What an unusual design. I especially like the nose section and the impressive attention to detail. Very clean and convincing.
@Rodrigo110 Thanks for the enthusiastic support. I'm glad you like my planes!
Nice

@Alienbeef0421 DOH!
@Scaniagek That IS totally awesome!

The most iconic jumbo.
Top notch
@AceOfSpade Nope, but I am pleased you enjoyed the film.
Sorry
XML modding.
@ThePrototype Thanks! Will do.
@ThePrototype I have not. A documentary? An animation? I will search for it, got any clues how I can find it?
I've been waiting for someone to attempt one of these. Well done!
