@SemedianIndustries I wouldn’t say it needs it but one of the traits of air superiority fighters is their high power to weight ratio which gives them the capability to fulfil their role better. It’s not necessary but it would help. No need to make a new variant of it just to change that though hahaha. I love it as it is
@SemedianIndustries it’s great! It flies pretty well and realistically but there is still a few things which you can do to give it more of an air superiority feel. Power to weight ratio is one that comes to mind but other than that it’s really good. It really looks different compared to all the other jets you see. Lovely cockpit as well!
@MBR6753 it’s pretty easy to fix that. If you lower the power of the engines it will help a lot. If you need any help with making something fly realistically feel free to ask :)
@DaDerpachu123 add some drag points and then increase power. It flies 1300mph for me at 20,000ft though give it another try but wait a minute or two on fast forward until it gets to that speed
This is fantastic! The auto roll that it has is so little that I really wouldn’t worry about it. Some things in SP just bug out like that even when everything is even. If you really are bothered by it, then what you can do is to remove the parts you think are a problem and reattach them manually. So you’d have to take them off and put them back on and use the nudge feature to get them in the exact place as the other one. That’s how I do it and it mostly works but not always. I wouldn’t really worry about it here though since it flies fantastic just like this
It’s definitely looking a lot better! The wings and length of the fuselage fit much better but the elevator still isn’t exactly the right size or shape. Why not try adding some more detailing as well like insignias? Nevertheless though this is definitely an improvement. If you do anymore work to it show me an unlisted version of it and maybe I can help you out with a couple tips :)
@SemedianIndustries I actually fly on my phone so I have the two on screen joysticks. I’ve been flying it a bit more and it’s a little easier now. I still accidentally pull 180 turns at 500mph in two seconds accidentally but it’s getting easier
@DaDerpachu123 try to use the scaled down wings. If you look at how I make my wings, most parts don’t have any actual wing piece in them. If you make the whole thing without adding wing parts, and then hide scaled down wings somewhere within the plane, it will work way better
This is really cool! I would say that the CoM should be slightly more forward to make the turns more smooth but other than that it’s great. Lovely build and great looking aircraft. Reminds me of an MD 265 a little
I will usually first make a rough build which will be the general shape of the aircraft I am making. This way when I start the real thing, I know how it’s going to look and be shaped. I tend to start with making a fuselage tube of parts being between 0.5-0.1 in size. I add these until it’s the length that I wish for the aircraft to be and then I start shaping it usually starting at the nose. After I go for the wings but the way I do that changes with every plane I make
@DaDerpachu123 in terms of flight characteristics it’s pretty good. Acceleration is a bit high and roll rate a little too but otherwise it’s good. When it comes to how it looks there are a few issues. Mostly that the proportions of the aircraft aren’t correct and the shape of the elevators and wings is a tad bit off. Try using the blueprints feature to check your aircraft after you make the shape. Also custom controls would make this a lot better or at least outlining of where the panels and ailerons would be. Nevertheless it’s still a nice build. I hope this helps :)
This is a nice aircraft! It looks good and flies pretty well too but it would be better if you couldn’t see the wheels through the wings when they are retracted. Also the parachute deploys with the same AG as dropping the R-60s. Other than that it’s pretty fantastic!
Pretty nice looking plane :)
+1@SemedianIndustries cool! I can’t wait to see it

Nice!
+1@701wwj666 understandable. The updates do change some of these things accidentally
Seems to be somewhat broken. When I fire the gun, it blows itself to pieces
@MBR6753 great to hear!
@MBR6753 it’s pretty easy to fix that. If you lower the power of the engines it will help a lot. If you need any help with making something fly realistically feel free to ask :)
And we have yet another beautiful aircraft design! This thing is pure excellence
Apart from being around 2.5 times faster than the real thing, this is a really good build which looks fantastic and handles well
@fulcrum29 if you need any help feel free to ask!
+1@fulcrum29 you should give it a try!
+1@SnoWFLakE0s oh for me it stays even when I turn off the predictor. Part of the cannon predictor actually stays too even. Thanks though!
This is really neat!
Is there a way to turn off the lead predictor for guns?
Now if this isn’t one of the best Vipers on SP I don’t know what is
@Empergyd the LAAT does look fantastic. I don’t actually remember seeing a good one on SP
Damn this is beautiful! Great looking build of one of the coolest ships in Star Wars
@SemedianIndustries awesome man! I’m excited to see it. If you need any help with it feel free to ask but I doubt you’ll need it hahaha
@DaDerpachu123 of course!
@DaDerpachu123 try flying at 20,000ft for around 1-2 minutes while on fast forward. It will get there. Don’t turn on autopilot though
I don’t think it’s necessary though since it already hits 1300mph
@Lixcuudis no problem at all man! I’m glad I got to try out this great aircraft!
+1This is superb! What an excellent build!

+1@Lixcuudis sure thing! Show me which plane you’re having problems with in an unlisted post and I’ll take a look at what can be done
+1Beautiful aircraft! It looks fantastic and flies great! Working on this with you was good fun so thanks for the opportunity
@SemedianIndustries hahaha it’s a monster

@DaDerpachu123 whatever you feel like :) I think you’d do good with that
Fantastic ship! It looks great, especially with the little people you added
Nice one!
@SemedianIndustries I actually fly on my phone so I have the two on screen joysticks. I’ve been flying it a bit more and it’s a little easier now. I still accidentally pull 180 turns at 500mph in two seconds accidentally but it’s getting easier
@SemedianIndustries fair enough. It’s a hard one to fly effectively but I can imagine with some practice you get used to it
@SemedianIndustries no problem!
@DaDerpachu123 try to use the scaled down wings. If you look at how I make my wings, most parts don’t have any actual wing piece in them. If you make the whole thing without adding wing parts, and then hide scaled down wings somewhere within the plane, it will work way better
@EngineerOtaku no problem :)

+2I love the way this looks. It’s a cute looking aircraft and it’s very fun to fly
+1Can we still sign up to test the beta or is it full?
Pretty nice!
@Warshipplan52 haha no worries
Was I tagged?
Pretty neat! It was fun making it fly
