4-link rock crawler, @mikoyanster attack copter challenge, hypersonic VTOL drone, independent rock crawler, supersonic carpet bomber, propeller stunt plane, articulated off-road tank, rock crawler with other sort of suspension
For a white underside, nudge fuselage pieces inside each other so that one sticks out slightly more than the other. For balancing, change fuel content in different blocks and move the wings. If all else fails, add dead weight wherever it's needed
SP is going to have continual updates and optimizations for civil and military aircraft. SR2 will have basic functionality for aircraft but will focus mainly on spacecraft.
@Simpleplaner656 @mikoyanster I'd like to second that suggestion. Tanks should not be instantly halted by a road sign. Don't bother with the physics simulation of a sign getting knocked over, just remove collisions
@MethaManAircraft As far as I know, Dark Falcons has nothing to do with Simplelandia RP. We only make stories to get attention and a bit of context for multiplayer events.
@DerekSP Extremely easy actually. It just needs a longer nose essentially. The biggest problem is the extreme torsional stress experienced by the wing. It's perfectly light and safe when using advanced composite construction where the wing is allowed some flex but far too much for aluminium/wood. have a look at the VAS Spectre as an example of an extremely stable forward-swept design (yes it's RC, but it's still a plane)
Actually we do use forward swept wings today. It usually results in instability but it doesn't have to. Have you seen the Su-47, X-29, VAS Spectre, Visionaire vantage? They are extraordinary aircraft
After scrolling through that long description and seeing the excellent mechanical detail, I thought for sure that it would be over 1000 parts. I’m pleasantly surprised! (I still can’t run it though :P)
I’ll upvote if you add real suspension and I’ll spotlight if you make it well enough. It looks good but has no suspension. Kinda defeats the purpose of an off-road dune buggy
I saved this as a favourite 2 years ago to seen how you made this suspension. I meant to upvote it after I tested it but it seems I forgot lol @marcox43
Just to be clear, this ONLY works if you follow your exact instructions including flat bottom airfoil, etc. It isn’t possible to have an unstable, symmetric airfoil, thrust vectored canard with no rear stabiliser?
@spefyjerbf @small1324 If you embed explosives into the battering ram and mod every single part's health to 1000000, you would have a single use battering ram effective against ships without damaging yourself.
I don’t care what the community wants anymore. I make stuff that I like and therefore it gets finished to a higher quality. But no, that doesn’t give you more attention and points lol
Using timezones to guess where people live is totally pointless. Guessing which half of a country you live in doesn’t really narrow it down at all. Besides, as you pointed out, many people are nocturnal. On another note, why so many forum posts every day?
I make all my own planes. Well... I do have a couple of ARF kits as well from when i first started. I have no experience with floats but I do have experience with 3D planes, high speed planes, quads, FPV on everything, LOS on everything.
And PS: HOW DARE YOU STOP POSTING! APOLOGY NOT ACCEPTED

@Hyattorama very
+1Why did you upload the stock bomber?

It’s a cri cri!
+1This is also applicable to SR2. Point invalid @jamesPLANESii
+2@mikoyanster Hell no

Completed the mission with a modified A7 Arrow :)
I'll try my own aircraft next
And that, ladies and gentleman, is how you make road car suspension
Very good!
Are we limited to traditional single rotor helicopters with a swashplate or can I create a quadcopter?
+1wRiGhT fLyEr wAs bAd
+3Because you don’t make aircraft worth 59 upvotes. Your random stuff stands out so it draws attention. That’s the hard truth for ya
Well... you don’t. One of the many issues caused by this fascinating but impractical design. @Thoum

It flies extremely well but yaw is inverted and it’s a bit ugly
This has to be one of your best yet
It may not have real suspension but it’s at least bronze worthy
+1Add a link to the aircraft and someone might be able to help

+2I’ll upvote if you add real suspension and I’ll spotlight if you make it well enough. It looks good but has no suspension. Kinda defeats the purpose of an off-road dune buggy
+1Nope @Rohan
If that doesn’t fix the issue, upload an unlisted version and I can give you more specific pointers @Boatrider
It’s flipping because sideways traction is too high. You did exactly the opposite of what you should have lol
I did actually. That’s how I managed to create successful solid axle suspension. @marcox43

Yes @Baldeagle086
Clap clap

@spefyjerbf Probably a good idea. I was just trying to think of an impact activated device. SimplePlanes isn't too good at collisions even after 1.8
+1Yes
@spefyjerbf @small1324 If you embed explosives into the battering ram and mod every single part's health to 1000000, you would have a single use battering ram effective against ships without damaging yourself.
+1I was considering that as well. I don’t think I would be very good at making it though @MethaManAircraft
I don’t care what the community wants anymore. I make stuff that I like and therefore it gets finished to a higher quality. But no, that doesn’t give you more attention and points lol
Having to post links is stressing you out? Not sure if you’re serious or not

@Fishydude
@Fishydude
Even better!
+1I can probably be online for operation A. Looks like it will be 8pm Saturday for me
I think I’ll start work on a hypersonic VTOL 2030's aircraft. Should be an interesting project
Guess so. I’ll need to fly it a lot more to get the feel for it. I think it would benefit from a very large bomb bay centred on the CoM @AviownCorp
Very impressive! @AviownCorp
+1But then it doesn’t stabilise it enough... maybe I’m just being picky. I’ll choose a few of your craft and discuss it with the others @AviownCorp
