  • Building Tips. 5.1 years ago

    If you want a good building tip, start simple. If you go back to my very first few aircraft they are absolute garbage, but now I goten pretty good with designs. If your making a custom wing use a fuselage peice. What I do is I make it between 1 and.5 thick depending on the size of the plane and I make the dimensions to how I want the wing to look and I just make it circular. That's it. Also for a simple way to make landing gear, go into xml got to input and make the minimum 0 and chage the input to LandingGear exactly like that capital L and G or it wont work. After that you can learn more and more about funky trees and slowly you skills will get better. Me just starting to make my build more complex, my most complex one was around 140 parts, compared to my usual 20-40 parts. Also try getting designs that will capture people's attention, like with my dragsters I added simple striping and a bit of engine detail and last I checked one go 64 downloads, the most I got for one of my creations. Some of these tip should help. But I think the major one is from my buddy Panthers down there, TAKE YOUR TIME everyone starts somewhere like I said my first creations suck but you work on it and everything slowly start getting better. One this too is consistenty, if you make good enough stuff then people will start to notice you on the site and your popularity will grow. The first time I got the attention of a pro builder is my first shot at modeled wing, acepilot109 upvoted it and gave me good feedback, and it motivated me to do more and work on my skills. Then I met senalPelpmiS and he helped me with my vehicles, mainly suspensions, I cant do suspensions but with my semi truck I didn't need any help and it came out pretty well. Just practice skills and your be good.

  • UAS Fixed Wing VTOL (SimplePlanes Review) 5.1 years ago

    I really love the look of the drone with the quadcopter for vtol and a normal prop for forward moving. I might make one to counter this!

  • Idk what to make. 5.1 years ago

    Well I would say make something ridiculous, something straight out of your imagination. Make something that has never been done on simpleplanes.

  • simple panzer 5.1 years ago

    Reminds me of a panzer 38. Good build

  • Areo-namics ap2 5.1 years ago

    @Jaspy thanks man! I love your ships!

  • Hamilton 1956 L-series limited 5.1 years ago

    Man this one took me about 2hours to make. It was really getting frustrating at the beginning but I pulled through and this is the result. I love the look so much! Love to get some feed back on the overall appearance and the functionality of it.@acepilot109 @senalPelpmiS @panthers4741

  • AD-K10-200 5.1 years ago

    Good job as always!!

  • areo-namics c112r 5.1 years ago

    @senalPelpmiS yes sir I'll make the frame and let you make the suspension, I dont want you to work to hard

  • areo-namics c112r 5.1 years ago

    @senalPelpmiS yea after I posted it and thought about it I was like I should probably flip that

  • areo-namics c112r 5.1 years ago

    @senalPelpmiS so I'm thinking of making a 6x6 really, I just need some good suspension, again I suck at suspensions, so can you help me. Front would be solid axle and rear would be independent double wishbone suspension ( I think that's what it is). Also do you know how I could make a rotator spin like really fast? I want to make a drive shaft and make it actually turn. Also I'll have a dump truck type bed in the back as well. It's going to be very complicated I can see it now

  • (Fictional only) Battle of Midway Challenge 5.1 years ago

    @Eiro ww2 dive bombers and torpedo bombers were there. So the run Down is a few weeks earlier the US broke the Japanese naval codes and discovered that they were planning on a massive surprise assault, like pearl harbor, on the US atol of midway. The American naval fleet being badly damaged but still having their carriers, were able to intercept this invasion. The US sunk 4 carriers( I pretty sure anyway) while the Japanese only sunk USS Yorktown and badly damaged the midway base. That's a simple crash course of the battle of midway for those who don't know what it is.
