This is my own opinion. This is how I feel about It. This is not intended to behate speech and I try to keep this to fact as much as possible.
I'm so confused, impressed, and just disoriented all at the same time. I mean, there's a ton of detail in it, but not many custom features. I got mad with Vader plays (the guy who made the challenge) who turned out didn't bother to fly my plane for a single inch (and was thus unable to experience my custom features), nor did he use his OWN point system. When asked about how many points he would give to me and you, he replied that you got 28 points (out of thirty, Design 10, Features 8, and handling 10) and I got 18 (!!!!) (3,10,5). First of all, as much as the fact that your plane is great, It just is not perfectly above and beyond and 10/10 like he describes it to be. Second, it is a FACT that your plane does not have interactive features or custom parts so I don't think you deserve an 8 for custom features.
I'd like to tell you that the only things he claims to have docked me 23% of my points is that the tail fins are too small and the wing taper is "weird". The wing taper is weird only because it is very innovative and boosts efficiency. The tail seems small because the plane is very large. The t-tail configuration makes it look even smaller. Even if it is small, it doesn't need to be big because the mechanical moment of control surface deflection is greater than in other planes because the tail is farther from the CoM (center of mass) than other planes. I mean, as long as it works, it is large enough.
This is just being used as an example. I'm not saying that your plane is bad or mine is good; It's just that yours is good, but could be better.
if you read this post you can just about see the consensus. The challenge was honestly bogus. Still, you won. Congratulations.
PS I have since blocked Vader Plays. I believe he knew his mistake all along. He said things like "this is a tight decision" or "Thank you, I spent all day to decide". How can you spend all day to decide if you only flew one of the two planes. He has since removed both the original challenge post and the winner announcement.
@Nash11 oh.
But that was clearly not a 747.
You have been disqualified on one of your 2 possible submissions. You can still build another one. If you copy another plane and post it for inspiration, better make it clear.
@Kernels I also added a rule that deducts points for gyros. Would you like to change the plane so it wouldn’t need one? If so, just make a successor of this plane.
@RivalStormy I'll see later.
Yes. Because the chute deploys at a very high speed, the movement is quite unpredictable and inconsistent. About 20% of the time the chutes just snap right off, never to be seen again (!). But I got this to get to either Yeager's apron or the space between the runways about 40% of the time.
@RivalStormy Funky Trees!
Basically the first chute activate after a certain latitude coordinate is reached. This is just trial and error.
The second chute activates after the coord is reached AND after it is below a certain altitude.
@47parzival41 no
My account is growing very slowly mostly because DPSAircraft is taking a break
And look at people like MobileFriendly
I will certainly not get platinum in 6 months (duh)
I just don't have enough commitment.
@47parzival41 have you noticed that the upper front section of the nose was removed?
also congrats for 4000 points
I also just upvoted you to get you there XD

@KnightOfRen I blocked vader plays so you probably can't tag him on my post.
Even if you do he cannot comment here
@Nash11 oh.

@Nash11 @Inuyasha8215 Very well. It is disqualified.
@Nash11 a description please?
@XP yes
@rexzion I left a link if you can’t see
@Pita about the custom thumbnails, yes.
I cant believe the creator of the bogus is now nearly silver. Maybe we should rethink life choices XD
@Pita and even if I don't win, I feel like I shouldn't be second to what was apparently perfectly above and beyond XD
@Pita well it is right to avoid the possibility of bogus altogether
You can read that post to see just HOW I feel right now XD
@WernsterProductions and so that deserves a spotlight
@WernsterProductions you won
@ACEPILOT109 oh thanks!
@ACEPILOT109 not enough effort.
More specifically not enough to present to a platinum user lol
@acepilot109
lol
I regret tagging you
This build is not up to your standard lol
@Jake_
Don't delete ur account
Try this plane
@vader_plays109
@Kernels I'm thinking about it.
I'm not the best at building replicas tho
@XP @Kernels
None of you will use EST on October 31!
You are and will be using EDT
@47parzival41 Does fine tuner scaling make it work?
If so I’ll try
Or you can just scale it yourself
@47parzival41 Please try the reduced part count version. I realize if I scale the plane down many features would break
@47parzival41 didn’t know that.
Anyway, I’ll try to make it smaller.
Does fine tuner scaling work or not?
@47parzival41 I’ll make a mobile friendly version
@vader_plays109
@47parzival41
@Kernels you put the wings forward too much. Try moving it back a bit.
@Kernels oh.
@Kernels I also added a rule that deducts points for gyros. Would you like to change the plane so it wouldn’t need one? If so, just make a successor of this plane.
@Kernels unfortunately I haven’t had any time to look at your plane yet. Sorry. I’ll try to find some time later today.
@CamanderYEET
here
@camanderyeet I'll try
I try using a winch because being pushed from the rear is bad for stability.
@RivalStormy I'll see later.

@HorizonWolf211
I understand your language difficulties, but:
Kilonewtons are kN, not Kn
Please.
Change it.
Nice plane.
@JSwannyGaming148 I’m in!
here it is
@jswannygaming148
@WernsterProductions Uuuh, ok?
@rexzion I know but this is my first time :(
@47parzival41 he's my good supporter and spotlights my stuff XD
@47parzival41 oh well
You'll see it soon enough.
@47parzival41 no

@47parzival41 try on a computer it worked for me
@XP I did but it still doesn’t work on mobile devices

@awfulfalafel @Zeezar2666 @angael2019 yes
@chibikitsune for every 10 parts over 1000 you now get 1 bonus point
@chibikitsune thank you for the spotlight!
With an amended rule, you now get bonus points for high part count.
