To be very honest with you, I find these controls to be counter-intuitive. This is because you can't just freeze the throttle; Even if we don't have activation groups, that would still be ridiculous.
I know that after some unhappy experiences on the site and some friends on SP leaving for good, I have become a terminal pessimist. Whatever. Also, are you good at custom cockpits? I had an abandoned collab and I really need some help.
@FireFast212 rotation speed, aka VR, is the speed at which back elevator pressure is applied to take off. To clarify, some people give the “oversimplified” definition of being when the nose gear lifts off. That is inaccurate, even if you assume that all planes have tricycle gear, which is not the case. It usually takes a while before the nose wheel actually gets off the ground, since control pressure is always gradually applied irl.
@chickenderp DPS is on a break from SP, since his broke his phone. Therefore he also can't make that video :(
Also, his English is kinda broken ngl, and he means that you should include a more detailed description with a photo gallery, flight instructions, operating limitations, et al., like in the example provided.
@ParziParziTheVal @PapaKernels
So,
1. Trim levers are on very old planes, and they are rare.
2. About what I mean by "stick": he claimed to have a stick in the plane, but yokes are present instead.
3. About the Catalina, don't you realize it is way larger than this?
4. 6500 drag points is too much for GA. It is private jet level. Also, remember that you don't take into account the general amount of drag; instead you go with whatever can get you to a realistic speed with realistic power. Also, you may have too high of an expectation for the speed of the planes.
@PapaKernels And where I wanted the wings isn't where you put it. If wings were always where the designers thought it would look best basically no planes would ever fly. Be rational.
@PapaKernels About the time thing:
You only post twice a week? Wow. How many players actually post two or more high quality builds per week? Not that many. I usually spend two months or more working on my planes.
@PapaKernels Some other problems I noticed in your description and the plane:
Do you know what a stick is?
Do you know what trim tabs are and how they work?
Why is there only one thrust lever?
Why is there a trim lever in place of a trim wheel where another throttle lever should be?
Do you know how overkill twin engines and 4000hp is for a two-seater? In comparison, the C172S produces 180hp and the DC3, in a comparable era, produces 2400hp and that's an AIRLINER.
I appreciate the effort, but I expected more effort and diligence when you submitted this plane. Sorry.
And @ParziParziTheVal what do you think of this plane? You're arguably a more experienced pilot lol
@PapaKernels And the stuff about trim:
You can just move the wings forward a bit. It seems like you either don't know the nudge tools, or you don't test your planes for some reason. Like your last plane you entered in the airliner challenge. That one doesn't even fly without a gyro.
@PapaKernels About your claims:
There is no rudder trim. Why do I have to hold it for so long? This is not even the yaw that we get irl. It is a lot more annoying.
Yes. We can use trim. But there's a problem with having to pull up even with FULL TRIM. So you think max speed is using full throttle forever? No. We don't use full thrust except during takeoff irl. Therefore using MAX TRIM is not enough even in cruise.
You had nearly a month to do this. I think some more effort would be better. ngl, you are one of those users who spam half-decent stuff frequently to get you here. I believe in quality over quantity.
@CubingBub95 This is two thirds the size of the 737-700, and the windows and doors are way too big, making it look like a mega scale regional jet instead of a scaled down 737. That is the main mistake you made. The nose is also a bit inaccurate but that's minor.
@TheFilmCrew Hello
I make stuff

@F104Deathtrap lol
@NumbersNumbersTheMan ah thank you
@NumbersNumbersTheMan how do you put a link in a image?
@XAircraftManufacturer oh
I mean, is it the one I kinda helped you with?
You might have not remembered
@XAircraftManufacturer lol is this the previous XL7?
@AirbusAerospace where did you get that airport map in the screenshots? lol
@eternaldarkness can you please remove the underscores from the name of the user below?
@ChrisETH lol
@ParziParziTheVal lol
@ChrisETH no it isnt

@Cabbage17 lol
@Thebite1234567 It means that bronze users are an exception to the funky trees rule.
@ParziParziTheVal ok
@WernsterProductions Why Do You Always Type Like This And Capitalize Every Single Word? lol
@ParziParziTheVal @PapaKernels @airlinerbuilder @WernsterProductions @suubk27
Thank you for participating!
@ParziParziTheVal I changed it lol

@KnightOfRen
@KnightOfRen ah yes. My PFP is a picture of my RJ200 (the original model for this series) still in development.
@KnightOfRen what is a pfp anyway?
@KnightOfRen yay
@KnightOfRen You can grade it now. Again, please note that custom thumbnails were not possible at the time.
Created On iOS@PapaKernels I hope you appreciate the constructive criticism. I am not saying You suck, so be it I am telling you how to improve.
@PapaKernels and about the 4000hp, just do
calculateDragfalsefor smaller parts@PapaKernels And where I wanted the wings isn't where you put it. If wings were always where the designers thought it would look best basically no planes would ever fly. Be rational.
@PapaKernels It is true, however, that your effort and build quality is increasing, as evident in your battleship. It looks really nice.

I think you should make the interior be worth less lol

@Chancy21 Thank you for the spotlight!
@PapaKernels ok
@CubingBub95 download this post. You should now see a cockpit. Now build from the cockpit. When you’re done, post.
@KnightOfRen lololol
@PapaKernels I have another question.
So If I have a photograph and I use the real image as the background and make a fuselage foreground, is that ok?
@PlanePlaneThe66373637 so what?
Eiro, you are very annoying.
"Oh, for us GOLD users"
respect new players. Do you want a bigger community or not?
@DPSAircraft ah you're back

I appreciate the effort, but you shouldn't pass anything off as a 737. This is a low-wing twinjet, but the similarities end right about there.
@NojusGindrenas read this
@PapaKernels oh ok
I may participate, but I don't know if I'll have time.
