@Noname918181 Considering the high quality of the entries I was delighted to get a place. Thanks for the challenge, it pushed me to produce better builds.
@TheNightmareCompany Both. Your build is great, and lots of fun to drive. The idea of requiring mobility assistance even in a virtual world is funny and depressing at the same time.
@ReinMcDeer Yes big fan of mustard and I subscribe to his stream, where I found the VVA-14. Do you know if it's allowed on to to link to content creators on other platforms?
Thanks. Is that what they meant by it was painted 'Aeroflot" colors? I tried to look it up but it was in Russian. No there have been a few good attempts at this oddity over time. This is the first VTOL version.
VR is looking really good in beta! The immersive menu solution is easy to understand. Firing guns seems natural but how to fire a missile is not as obvious. I'd love it if there was a trigger method for missile as well without having to go through the touch menus.
@V OK. If they look fine in your VR headset then my advice may be out of date. It was something I noticed when I creating my first VR UIX on the 1st gen CV1 headsets. Compared to controls created for normal PC displays I found that I had to make everything bigger. I remember feeling like a 3 year old trying to grapple with fine objects. If you are able to get them, reference the games "VTOL VR" and "UTLRAWINGS" for a good comparison. (SImpleplanes VR is going to be soooo much better)
This is your best build yet. Yes I still love your trains and dragons. But this one is so smooth.

A masterpiece! I'll have to fire up my workstation later to see it in VR but I think it looks very usable.

+1I just a had another look at this. You've done a really good job of analyzing and replicating a birds anatomy. Its taught me a lot.
+1Took my by surprise. Feels solid to fly with good balance. Nice build.
+1Nice Torpedo's aimed by a TOE.. TOW? system. Sort of. Where there is a spool of wire connecting back to the launcher. Wish I'd though of that.
+1Its absolutely amazing. I love that you used FT to make it more authentic. There is just so much in it!
+1Has the vibe of a Vought F4U Corsair. Love the part count. Works nice in VR, you should tag it.
+1A class act, definitely one of my all time favorite planes.
Well it sure is cool, with its freaky "follow mode" and its impassive slowly blinking eye. Now I have to go watch the anime.
+1It flies through mountains!
This is a great build.
As a PID evangelist I say "Thanks" and... Oh now I get it, Press the button up top to store.
.
Really like this one.
Well... why not.

I find myself oddly triggered by VR friendly wheel-chairs.
It does its own thing and swims in little bursts. You can control it with Activate1 but it only moves during those moments. Spawn it as an AI.
Run Otto, run!

Oui vraiment!
Thanks everyone for the upvotes.
Yep. I made one with the VTOL capabilities that it was supposed to have.
Its peaceful. I think it needs a keel
Didn't know this plane existed. Love the way the gears pop out sideways.
+1With that many guns, you don't need to aim any of them. It hits everything.
+1Its just beautiful. Feels "Crafted"
+2Nice!

I like this one.
If only all life's goals could be reached by pressing a single button.......ah bliss
+1A fascinating design. What was the intention behind having both props and jets. Were they for different phases of flight, or to work together.
+1What a good idea. I'm going to do a room too.
So cute! It makes me smile when I fly it.. a feel good bird.
+5Love the steampunk styling.
A teaser for my upcoming entry into the VTOL challenge
So unassuming. yet so amazing. It's a symphony of geometry, aesthetics and code. Going to read the book!
+1Geez. Fabulous! I wanna stick my dime on the top of the game machine to reserve my turn. Or..Did I just make an outdated 80's joke.
Use the overload mod and instead of controlling flaps with "Roll' use this code
RollAngle/90+Roll
Nice idea

+9@V Will do. Thanks!
@Noname918181 Airplane specifically? OK that sorts out what you are looking for. I was thinking of a VTOL tank but I'll try something else.

Can it be silly but very functional?
just beautiful. So peaceful to fly.
+2I have an strange urge to fling him from a catapault
+3I'm so confused.
+1Its really good!
