You're about to knock me out, barring a disaster. but it's only fair, I think I've taken you out a couple times in the last few weeks. GL Spritus your planes are always awesome.
@GrumpyRacing exactly, in the tourney before this one, I was second to enter, and was at the top of the brackets, the week before, I signed up Saturday, and was consequently at the very end.
By talking about it, it only makes him more powerful, just ignore him, he's still a kid. is he annoying? sure. is the spam of jelly planes really that unbearable? no. they don't clog up our forums, they just comment on YT.
@DanAviation It's absolutely possible to crash on this when you come out of the dive @ 2,200 mph+, but it's usualy due to wing-loading not collision. That's where I had to tone the plane down, it also was getting ring misses at that speed.
@GrumpyRacing I slept through the tourney thinking it was on Sunday..... dangit, I'm glad it was you and me in the final. Make a friend in the last tournament, epic battle against him in the next... Like Balboa and Creed. wait... does this mean i'll die next week.... crap
@Manboy2 as far as I know this was just us speculating. At the end of the stream last Sunday he said he'd put it up the next day. that's the last I've heard about it from Devs
@TheLatentImage I did order the ribeye, I normally make that sort of thing myself, for 1/3 the price, but it was outstanding. while I could make the steak that good, I could not have made those veggies that came with it. It was worth the splurge occasion.
@TheLatentImage It's funny to read this right now, as I just got home from my friend's wive's B-day party, and I've had a crush on one of her friends for some time now. and we were talking most of the night. The Food was taking a while, but it was an upscale restaurant, (talking $45 Steaks, normally above my means). half of the table started complaining about our waiter, and being generally rude to him, lead by the girl i'm interested in. I Immediately clammed up, and spent no more extra effort speaking to her, nor will I in the future.
I feel I've been pretty even keeled here in the SP Community, save for Razzing the winner of the tournament a couple weeks ago whose plane was simple... I guess I was just caught up in the competition, and upset with the bridge deaths.
Moral of the story here is; There's a real person on the other end of the keyboard folks. try to remember that they have feelings, stresses, and and lives besides just SP.
I made the Fuse buoyant, and flopped it upside down in the water, put engines to 1% and laughed my tail off.. thanks man, I think I got an ab work out just now
I liked your design, but I made a few adjustments that really helped, I swapped the engines to activation group "None" so you don't have to activate a group to start going, moved the wings fwd and in a bit, lessened the length of the elevators, removed all the fuel that was behind the Center of Mass, and added VTOL thrusters to the back for easier liftoff from water.
most of it can be seen here.

love the design though man, looks cool
These points are like achievements, they don't actually get you something, but they are fun to collect. while I'm not a fan of the people hijacking other posts for points, I do get why people covet them. I don't think it's fair to call it a "low brow internet site". It's not like everyone is here for fart jokes and beer. Also, just because the game is simple enough for kids to use, I don't feel it's aimed directly at them, or away from adults in any way.
I'm all for people acting more appropriately about the points, but for every person that acts annoying about the points, there are 5-10 people who handle themselves just fine.

It was kind of rough for an old warhawk, most of the planes were all wing. That's a nasty course with ugly turns. Only the planes that were built for the course survived.I made it to the final 16, and found myself sorely out matched when I got there.
GL sir, Spritus is about to eliminate me in the next round, barring a disaster.

Your plane is a sleeper, much faster than I expected. Good race, you were pretty close behind me.
It was a good race, sorry to knock you out early.
=) I missed our race, but here's an upvote
pretty neat, but some of the bombs fall off immediately
Nerdtronics@gmail.com if you want to try to mail the file. @grumpyracing
@GrumpyRacing sure. i'll use it for testing against mine.
I'm not feeling terribly confident about my entry this week so far. maybe that will change with newer versions, once I get a day off. @GrumpyRacing
It's beautiful man.

@JShay thanks man!
Just be ready to train my son after I die @GrumpyRacing

He's only been around for 2 months like me. I only reached silver because of the tournament. but his planes are nice, i'll shoot him some upvotes.
Grats Grump!
you had severe limitations, building on ios, nice plane man.
This thing looks like an Evil Juicer. I guess the name fits! it was a close match.
I slept through the tournament, and I didn't see our match, but Nice plane.
Not even sure what happened in our match there, nor the final. Battle of the Darts.

@SpiritusRaptor I was getting it over 2,200 Mph as well.had to slow down a bit.
@Manboy2 as far as I know this was just us speculating. At the end of the stream last Sunday he said he'd put it up the next day. that's the last I've heard about it from Devs
Is @AndrewGarrison O.K.? I haven't seen anything from him since last sunday after the Tournament.

@Sutairs My Roomate is Philipino and he about laughed out of his chair when I showed him the Jeepney Racer when you made it.
I made the Fuse buoyant, and flopped it upside down in the water, put engines to 1% and laughed my tail off.. thanks man, I think I got an ab work out just now
:)
@Jsaret Sknaht!
@britishnarwhal thanks
@himynameiswalrus, @baconaircrafts, @feschterohjo Thanks!

I'm so impressed with the camera view, and his hands moving with the stick.
@KingDeadshot, that's the beauty of it, you don't have to be there to compete. Just build and enter, come back and see how you did.
It was kind of rough for an old warhawk, most of the planes were all wing. That's a nasty course with ugly turns. Only the planes that were built for the course survived.I made it to the final 16, and found myself sorely out matched when I got there.
Yeah, @bando89 is right. I've been playing of just over a month, and I'm almost gold. mostly from 3 tournaments.
Ur said gold... I meant silver
@GrumpyRacing You made the #2 plane on freaking ios? that's impressive dude.
This version is out of date, slow, and unstable.
@Garuda1, @iiRazor. I also went up against @Wahoo12 's plane R9RS Razorblade... that's pretty funny. Occam faced both Razors!
Great race Grumpy... I was rooting for you in the Final
Great Race.. was anyone's game.
Nice Race. I look forward to our next one.
Good Race! you were damn fast.
Good race, dude. Nice P-40. I look forward to you beating me next time. keep building.
Ha, I didn't notice that. Nice catch
