@Amirabadi Popularity-wise? It's starting to rise, but this game is NOWHERE close to DCS. The planes in DCS have been meticulously researched to get the most realistic experience of the planes they offer.
Here... A flying toaster with bacon missiles is just as logical 🤷
@Amirabadi I just search online for what I can find. It's not always easy, but if the plane is popular, usually you'll find very very detailed blueprints.
For this model particularly I was lucky to have the DCS model on standby to confirm specific details
Very nice design! was fun to fly!!
From a realistic design perspective I'm not sure if the air-brake position would be a problem as it covers the Vertical Stabiliser. That's just me over-analysing...
I only have to address 2 small problems:
1 - The flaps move upwards, a simple funky tree clamp(VTOL,0,1) would be great
2 - The rear gunner seems stuck in position. Just a little bit of attachment editting would fix it right up!
Other than that, it is a gorgeous build and a fun flier! keep it up!!
I have to say I am impressed by this Update!!! Well done devs!!
It takes some time to get used to some of the controls, but once you get the hang of it, it's brilliant! Now I really wish I had a VR headset to test out my latest A-8 Aquan D-3 Release!!
Bit on the chunky side, but pretty good model!! keep it up!!
Awesome plane! If only you resorted to fuselage slicing rather than panelling for the cockpit exterior, it would have made this plane amazing!!
+1Very interesting design! Keep up the good work!!
Would love to see this remade once your skills have improved!
Very very good model! Not sure if I prefer this over mine xD
+2@Clutch Thanks, It's not as hard as you think thanks to the new fuselage slice option. Tag me when you finish it, I'm looking forward to fly it :)
IMPRESSIVE!!!
touched the throttle to 1%. Was travelling at 786571100000000 km/h...
Did the maths... This vehicle was travelling 728,810x the speed of light...
The launch planet would probably be obliterated with all that kinetic energy...
Try an aerodynamic blend-wing body like the mig-29 / su-27 kinda thing.
I'm getting a PZL-230 Skorpion / A-10 vibe out of this... Kinda like a slow moving Ground air support...
How did you manage to do the Spade symbol? I can't seem to recreate it...
@TheKugelblitz By all means, just credit me when you release it :)
@Haytham115 I am intending to build it myself, but yes! Feel free to use it in your build! Just credit me in the build itself and tag me.
If you wish to collaborate for the build, I'd be more than happy to help :)
Very good build!! Keep it up!!

Pretty awesome design. Would be awesome if it didn't rely on the autogyro
+1@parkrangerjerry Soviet is referring to the colour scheme. Soviet i.e. Soviet Union, not Russia(ish..)
Also yes, United States did purchase Mig-29s, but that's a political can of worms...
Other than the unnecessary buttons, this is a very good model!!! Keep up the good work!!
@SiCorSky Thanks, I tend to gun-ho plane I download before actually studying it xD
Having difficulty operating this plane... for some reason engines don't seem to work :/
Gorgeous build btw!
I volunteer my a-8 Aquan d-3 and cessna 182s builds!!
I can't find the VR tag... what do I do??
@SyntheticL I'll have a look into it. Thanks for letting me know!!!
+1@Tang0five You seem to use the windows version, why not give it a spin? At least till the devs release an official version...
@SyntheticL You are right. I gave it a basic star shape because i didn't want to add too much to the part count.
I wish they would add ASCII characters to the new labels feature, it would save me A LOTTTTTT OF TIME...
+2Bben following your Metal slug stuff recently, pretty damn impressive :D
Perhaps you'd consider This bad boy for your next build?
Very nice model!! Keep it up!!
+1Tag me when it's released please :)
Impressive work!! This should be something simpleplanes integraes in-game now that gauges are available
+2Gorgeous model!!! Keep it up :)
Awesome work! Keep it up!
+2@RamboJutter Oh yeah! I totally forgot about that! Nevermind I said that, awesome design!!

T !!!
@Tang0five Perfect timing too! With the new update you can make a refueller version
Clever!!! good to know!!!
Gorgeous glider!!! Keep it up!!

Lovin this plane!! very nice, simple and elegant! Wish I had a VR headset to test it out!!!
@Oogabooga21 You can use the transform part to move the required part in place. It is not a drag-and-drop system. Might need a remake in due time..
+1Me reading this list
+4Kar-98?
+1I suggest to wait for the next update to do this. It will reduce your part count significantly!!
Other than that looks awesome!! Keep it up!!
Builder: So, What armament would you want for this design?
Designer: Yes...
Builder: Where would y...
Designer: Did I stutter?
@RamboJutter True come to think of it! Although since you used rotated blocks, your looks more like an f-19 I think...
Cute model. If you want to stabilise the plane without the use of Gyros, You will need:
To add VTOL RCN pods around the body to have manual control
and
Ensure that the Centre of Mass is literally over the Centre of Thrust. That way it won't tilt forwards / backwards / Sideways during vertical lift
The elevator animation seems to be inverted, other than that, awesome job!! Keep it up!!!
+2Excellent model! Keep it up!!

Great build!! Watched the commentary by "Laz" - Gave me a great appreciation to how much thought is put into the building process of this plane!
