@SimpleStudent try having the horizontal turret degree range to 180, then set the turrets values to -2 and 2 and have it funkied to TargetHeading/360, I suspect the turret tries to do a complete 180 before then aiming at the target, this might help.
I haven't ignored your post but the topic is extremely complicated to explain so I've been working on it for a good while to have it in layman terms for you.
But, what you can do for the direct aim aspect is to have the rotator that controls the turret elevation (up and down) funkied with TargetElevation/90, where 90 is the degree range of the rotator, you can set it to any degree you want as long as the rotator degree range also matches.
And for the rotator that controls the horizontal movement of the turret, TargetHeading/90 should suffice.
Importantly; You want the entire turret assembly to be attached to a rotator pointing straight froward, that's funkied to RollAngle/360, since the turret can only aim if it's perfectly upright, this would keep it upright regardless of how many times you roll so it can properly keep on target, the maximum rotation range for the small rotator is 180 so make sure to go into the input settings and set the -1 and 1 to -2 and 2.
There's a lot more to it but I hope that helps so far.
If any of the rotators are spinning the wrong way, just add a - sign in front of the 90 or the 360 to the rotator that's faulty.
If flight quality could be tasted then Gordon Ramsay would be bowing to you, this is stunning work and deeply refreshing in a site where looks are what's prioritized instead of flight behavior, that's where the real skill lies. Immeasurably amazing work here.
Left aileron facsimile is working a bit improperly but it's a lovely build, I'm sure you're aware of people's opinions about the cockpit but it's no big deal.
You definitely studied on building techniques if your first build is like this, especially concerning funky trees code, i do admit this makes me skeptical that this is your first build, nonetheless you did a great job with it.
@jumo004 looking at the tail configuration this model is the first demonstrator for the FC-31, it infact did have such an airbrake, the second demonstrator, recognisable by its F-35 looking vertical tail fins, did away with it.
Holy freaking christ no wonder my phantom lost to this thing it turns like a kite jesus, I thought the aircraft for the challenge were supposed to be authentic to real life performance? Have my upvote it looks great
@EnigmaSP It's a simple fix, there's either a + or - sign in front of "Roll" in the code, just after the final parentheses for inverselerp, I just switch the + to a - and on the other side with the - I switch it to the +
@thelongone well the quest 2 runs on the Snapdragon XR2 and my phone runs on the Snapdragon 888, the 888 has better performance overall, but I still don't have a fix for the helicopter wanting to explode other than run the game on high physics
It's not too much a challenge for my planes other than it being a tanky phuck LMAO, It's a lovely craft and definitely a potent adversary but the guns and missiles aren't as effective as those on my builds even with their auto aim, which gives it poor stand-off capabilities in comparison, overall the plane itself is very well built and hilarious to fly I love it!
@Dracul0Anderson it uses rotators with funky tree coding that makes them act like electric motors, the ones attached to the wings simply spin half as fast as the entire assembly, and rotators are neat in that multiple of them with the same input remain in sync no matter what.
It's a lovely build and looks freaking amazing, but I'd be lying if i said the quality of the flight behavior was just as stellar, i find it too wiggly and feels unstable, as well as it having unwanted roll behavior during pitch, but otherwise it's a 9/10 build💖
This is pretty much what an inverted parasol wing is, I've made similar designs in the past but I'll see if i can get a nice plane done specifically for this challenge
@Liquidfox01 they're vestigial custom gear bay doors, i had problems with excessive wheel bounciness and i couldn't find a solution so i brought back the stock gear
@AWESOMENESS360 i honestly love the way it looks, if you couldn't tell, it's just two canopies rescaled and clamshelled to one another, I'll likely use this same idea for light helicopters in the future
The flight characteristics are golden, lovely work
+1Never once have I encountered a high quality build that also has extremely high quality flight characteristics, it's just perfect oml 💞

+1@MAPA finally someone actually knows it by name
+1@junseo2709 glad you enjoy it!
+1@SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore better watch out!
+1@TheCommentaryGuy there are a lot of non canon adjustments and modifications to this build.
+1@Mustang51 thank you!

+1@IceCraftGaming no gyro, only inertial stabilizer

+1Missing control surfaces for roll but i added them and this flies very very nicely, nice job!

+1One of the wings is buried deeper into the fuselage than the other causing unwanted roll attitude during pitch, overall it's a very nice plane.
+1Oh I like this

+1Lovely craft, just a note, the roll input for the nozzles is reversed
+1Is it bad that I understood exactly what "Duck Wings" referred to, lovely build by the way!
+1Spending HALF AN HOUR trying to initiate the start-up properly LMFAO I can't seem to get it right
+1This is really neat
+1@Th3rmoplylae oh yeah I'm aware but most builds are gonna have guns so I slapped one in there
+1@Viper_Z3R0 upload in discord then just link them in your post like this

+1@ZachAaronMendiolaT the game doesn't run this plane well on low end devices
+1Both looks good AND flies amazingly?! Phuck yeah, awesome job!!! Absolutely appreciate how well she flies, especially the VTOL function!

+1@SimpleCommonerBuild used overload and added "function" in the name section with "MultiRole" as the value

+1@Ihavesnowball Happy OP Build's Day! And unfortunately i keep discord family only!
+1@Ihavesnowball lmao is that what I'm known for? That's awesome
+1@IceCraftGaming nah, would be neat though
+1Ugh god, gorgeous, perfectly executed, wonderfully coded, excellent build quality, perfect flight quality, awesome work!!
+1@gingerbreadman sure
+1@ThomasRoderick AAA THANKS
+1@HariTheSnakk thanks!!!
+1@Liquidfox01 they're vestigial custom gear bay doors, i had problems with excessive wheel bounciness and i couldn't find a solution so i brought back the stock gear
+1Lovely
+1@HariTheSnakk this specific one? You sure it's not the D.20B variant I recently posted? That's pretty interesting
