Your planes defy logic as far as performance...I couldn't make one like yours if I tried for a very...very long time. I know why they perform so well, but making one is really, really hard.
@BrainyDJ I really like how you can land this with a massive angle of attack just like the real shuttle and still maintain roll authority (no doubt b/c of the RCNs, but still)...pretty fun to try and land this thing.
It looks great. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is b/c you absolutely must use the VTOL controls to control pitch reasonably in many situations...but I had a lot of fun flying it around anyway, and was able to land it pretty easily when I used VTOL in addition to pitch....and it looks great while doing so.
I was conflicted even taking off a star for that b/c the real shuttle would be unflyable w/o computer assistance anyway and you setup the VTOL pretty well to mitigate that issue...actually, I'm giving it 5 stars now that I've thought it through :)
It's fine, just stop commenting on his stuff...if you guys can't get along, then you'll at least be doing your part.
@Dracula Also, just stop rating/commenting on his stuff...from any account.
Problem solved :)
If you want a true tricycle gear setup, move the landing gear all the way back under the tail section, that may also work, but it would shift your center of mass back, which may/may not be desired.
I'm not really having a problem taking it off but @Beefmen88's suggestions will help. Move the rear landing gear forward some to make the takeoff roll take less effort.
I'm not sure moving the front gear is necessary though.
This is a stunningly beautiful design. It needs a bit of love from someone willing to help make it fly a bit better while keeping the aesthetics I think. You did a lot of work by yourself with the VTOL trim.
Really though, great job, I'm floored...
@StevenQuartzUniverse Just curious, do you mean your parents don't want you using SimplePlanes.com because of it, or you are just tired of seeing it? I removed all of the accounts/airplanes that I saw related it. I'm sorry you had to see it, we're working on changes to help prevent this from happening and tools to react to it if it does.
@Nightraider iOS requires all updates, even betas to be approved. It takes a couple days for them to approve it. While we are waiting on it to be approved, we've already made additional changes to the other versions, so iOS betas will be a couple days behind. For official releases it usually doesn't matter at all, or very little at most. But during beta we're constantly fighting bugs and making tweaks, so there may be more of a difference between iOS and other versions. The newest beta has very few differences though.
@Stingray Awesome! @Air123 It will be this month. We're going to be putting out a new beta probably by next Wed...and then the final release will hopefully follow soon after if there are no major issues.

Beautiful, and flies great...not much more you can ask for.
Very simple, but flies pretty well, like it :)

This aircraft flies really well, was using it today to test a "top secret" feature in the next update.
Very nice
@t8erh8er Head South (straight ahead) and a bit-East (right) from the Murphy Airport takeoff location...you should see it pretty soon.
@Homersdonut We were out of the office today, I don't know of anything that would've caused this, but I will get back to you tomorrow.
I'm blown away...looks like it was modeled in a 3DS Max or something, and flies amazingly.
Love this aircraft, great rendition. Wheel pants looks awesome.
Awesome.
You wizard :)

Guys, just stay away from each other...stop commenting on/rating each others stuff.

@BlueWhiskyYT Hey, FYI you can upload your plane and then edit the description from the website if that is easier.
Flies beautifully!
You guys blow me away by making these things on mobile...you must have so much patience!
Awesome!
Wow
This is pretty neat!
Perfectly balanced VTOL! Great job.
This looks great and flies awesome.
Very creative! A bit tough to control, but I know you are limited with options there.
Whoa! This is awesome, looks like something out of the alpha version (due to the floppy wings, not the looks).
@BoxGlow Thanks! I noticed they all dance way better at Murphy airport as opposed to others (like South Runway). They must love the new island! :)
Love the little bounce at the beginning before the "dancing" starts :)
@Kevpilot Andrew just made an update to the code that decides which planes to show...looks better now. Thanks.
Hey, this flies really well!
Nice!
@CINCIndustries We are looking into it, and we've removed a lot of planes lately, so yes, we're doing something about it. Thanks for letting us know.

No changes have been made...how many points did you have (approx)?
lol, this is awesome. You had everyone in the office cracking up!
@JustFly I'm a developer (programmer) for SimplePlanes. Awesome design!

Holy cow!
Nice! Like the missiles on the wingtips.

That is a very fast regional jet! Looks great, like seeing civilian aircraft :)
Love it. :)
Wow!
Flies like it is on rails. Very nice.
This is awesome...lot of fun to fly. Great job using the new props.
Beautiful...flies great.
Very nice. It is a bit hard to take off w/o nosing over, but that just adds to the challenge :)
