@nightmarecorporation you know, that's impossible. If I make a backyard ultralight today, you wouldn't know what it is and what it's called. Plus, you'd also have to name every single RC plane and heli ever lol
@Mandanbb8099 Mods are community-made alterations to the stock game. Don't confuse them with the moderators, who look after the website and are users with red badges that say Mod. Most players (including me) don't play with mods for the most part, and mobile users don't even have access to them. Therefore, to ensure fairness I am not allowing them with the exception of Fine Tuner and Overload, which have recently been added into the game for everyone.
@KnightOfRen lol I am entering this in your challenge. I hope this is up to your standard, since this is my most part count build. Yet even with this part count, there is basically no aesthetic detail here. I mean, I think this is one of my builds that didn't gain enough recognition for what it's worth. Also, you might be aware that I use custom thumbnails now. I made this on iOS before 1.10, and custom thumbnails were impossible on mobile before then because of lack of mod support. I hope you will wait a bit before you grade this thing because I will add to the description soon with some more detail and a photo gallery.
As a final note, I made this before 1.5k. Even though it wasn't that long ago, I did have lower standards back then. P.S. Since the competition is not that great, I hope I win. I think following will serve me well and I desperately need another follower. I don't really care about the 10 upvotes at this point since it only gets me 150 points. I might want it more if it gave me 1500 XD P.P.S. Ignore the lack of part smoothing. I made 90% of this plane even before the 1.10 beta released. I don't think it should count as a part of design because it is not a trick you use to make the plane look smooth. You just change it with a click of a button.
@ihateairbusa330
You divide the wings into "sections" of fuselages, put hinges between the sections, and connect the wing sections to the hinges. Then set the input to "Disabled", and set the range of motion to 0. You then scale down the stock wing you hide in the custom wing and nudge it to the edge of the wing (This makes the physics engine think the wings are really far from the plane but it doesn't collide with anything) and connect that scaled down stock wing to the tip of the custom wing. The wing will now flex as the hidden stock wing creates more lift, lifting the wing.
@ParziParziTheVal
Here it is. As evident below, I am asking for a successor to your challenge and it should be a successor soon. Enjoy!
I added gear doors lol
@Lixcuudis no. You just have to replicate all the cool features of the plane you replicate, and find new ways to build things. You will be docked if you build the same old way that already exists in many iterations, and have no custom and/or interactive features.
@BasicAerospace10 The design of the wings is also bad for the challenge. It has ZERO wing sweep for the most part, which doesn’t do well for speed and agility. Also, how many points do you give for each criterion? This info helps make the challenge more fair and lets participants know what to prioritize when building.
@TheTomcatters Click and read the stream of comments about what some players and a mod thinks of this kind of challenges
Ngl, this is an example of a bad challenge. I suggest you ask more experienced players for advice when grading the challenge. Also, you literally copied @EternalDarkness 's desc. So that's where the advice came from. I tagged the Moderator because I think this is becoming point mining. Clearly, you put next to no effort into this. At least you bothered to not use the default cockpit and you bothered to copy three paragraphs. I don't think this is enough.
After you copied and changed it a bit, you didn't even bother to proof your "own" description. There are no categories for this contest, yet you said:
I will allow one entry per user per category
no
I am not trying to bully you. After all, I am only silver, and basically no one notices me. The point is, you do not deserve to get points for copying three paragraphs from a more well respected player. As a final note, Eternal did not give ten points for a paint job.
As a message to Eternal, if you are reading this, I hope this is not hate speech. If it is, I sincerely apologize and I accept the consequences.
@BnanaX I get it now. You used FT code, so all you have to do is replace Throttle in your FT with the thing I sent you, put between (parentheses). However, beware of the fact that wings can snap due to the high torque at higher altitudes.
@BnanaX The throttle levers? If so, yes. Use Throttle for all but engines
Th thing is, we are only multiplying thrust because it is what the game does not do for us. Therefore even when thrust is multiplied you can pretend it isn't
@BnanaX If you have issues, try using this as input for the engines: Throttle*((0.5*TAS/IAS)+0.5)
This is funky trees. Not that hard. TAS/IAS is 1 at sea level, and increases as air density decreases. Other than that, it is self-explanatory.
With this multiplier in, it means that at cruising altitude, throttle output is about 1.5x that of sea level.
And ohhhhhh I’m sooooo close to 3k XD
@Yeet1234 well you better get around to it lol
According to the mods, not grading for two weeks is punishable for point farming
@nightmarecorporation you know, that's impossible. If I make a backyard ultralight today, you wouldn't know what it is and what it's called. Plus, you'd also have to name every single RC plane and heli ever lol

@Blue0Bull I want to enter this in a challenge. Please make this a predecessor if possible
@KnightOfRen thank you for the spotlight!
@KnightOfRen Thank you! lol I thought people hate me these days bc of my greed and my laziness and my pointless and boring forum posts
@ParziParziTheVal ok lol
@ParziParziTheVal Oh no you graded my temporary description.....
@Eternaldarkness can u pls remove the underscores from this guy's name? tagging him is hard lol
@ihateairbusa330

@ParziParziTheVal hi lol
Here it is.
@UtsuhoReiuji lol
@Blue0Bull please make this a successor of this
Thanks!
Yes I am nearly at 3.5k lol
That’s 1.5k in just under 3 months
It’s not that hard
@ParziParziTheVal
Here it is. As evident below, I am asking for a successor to your challenge and it should be a successor soon. Enjoy!
I added gear doors lol
@Blue0Bull
Hi. Please make this a successor of
g70H5blink hereThank you.
@UtsuhoReiuji good advice lol
Thank you so much!
@Xml_ Thank you.
@Jake_ ok
@ParziParziTheVal as long as it can land on both land and water. Also, for bonus points, get me a floating tow plane/winch lol
@PapaKernels I am working on a 787 with @ParziParziTheVal which I may or may not enter.
@JOEMAMA07 we need higher upvote prizes
@FireFast212 I just noticed I have more points than you now XD
@FireFast212 lol
@yodudechase we need another A340 on the site
@ParziParziTheVal ok lol
Well, my post stall plane is already STOL enough
@ParziParziTheVal I'll just tilt engines 89.9° then lloooollllll
@Lixcuudis no. You just have to replicate all the cool features of the plane you replicate, and find new ways to build things. You will be docked if you build the same old way that already exists in many iterations, and have no custom and/or interactive features.
@FireFast212 Thank you!
@DPSAiracraft Thank you for the upvote and spotlight!
@BasicAerospace10 At least look at someone else’s
@BasicAerospace10 If you are a newbie that is the PRECISE reason why you should NOT host a challenge
@BasicAerospace10 The design of the wings is also bad for the challenge. It has ZERO wing sweep for the most part, which doesn’t do well for speed and agility.

@BasicAerospace10 I am not trying
Should I let EternalDarkness give you a lecture on challenges lol?
@GuyFolk ok
@BasicAerospace10 You need grading criteria lol
This is also too specific.
You are also guilty of mass tagging lol
@EternalDarkness
Me: speechless

@BnanaX kk

Throttlein your FT with the thing I sent you, put between (parentheses). However, beware of the fact that wings can snap due to the high torque at higher altitudes.@TheTomcatters
NO.
@Ayvieyation As long as it is practical. By realistic I mean you can't have a plane as small as an ant.
@BnanaX Well, it worked perfectly fine on a normal engine for me lol
Ohhhh @BnanaX
Maybe it’s something about the electrical engines?
150th upvote!
@BnanaX The throttle levers? If so, yes. Use
Throttlefor all but enginesTh thing is, we are only multiplying thrust because it is what the game does not do for us. Therefore even when thrust is multiplied you can pretend it isn't

@Kekko ah kk.
Then change the name to just “Citation”
CCX is a model in the CC family.
@AsteroidAsteroidTheBook What is @BogdanX 's system? he removed all his challenge posts lol
