    What an upsetting question. @Rohan

  • Working 1:1 scale replica Anzani 3 cylinder engine. 8.9 years ago

    I've worked on one of these beautiful engines, (trust me they are actualy awful lol) and this is probably 97% accurate, simply because A. No oil stains (lol) B. NO ANZANI logo & C there isn't a plane attached to it! JK it's amazing šŸ˜

  • bjac.co Arrow drone 8.9 years ago

    How can a plane be ill? Baffling thought that. Baffling. @TTHHSSSS

  • bjac.co Arrow drone 8.9 years ago

    This is a beauty! I've got a soft spot for those intakes ontop of the fuselage now. I've been using a lot of them but the ones on this are just šŸ˜ So much insperation!

  • bjac.co Arrow drone 8.9 years ago

    Please never do that to me lol @Illusion

  • Indy Air Race 8.9 years ago

    That is not impossible. But it is improbable. The fastest should be around 40 but they will have a higher risk of crashing out or missing rings. It's safer to go for a slower more agile plane. @Johndfg

  • Indy Air Race 8.9 years ago

    I've somehow managed to make something that doesn't crash on the first ring (all other tourneys I've done this) it gets around in just under 50 with a 90% success rate... Usualy it crashes on the first race it gets loaded in lol... Le sigh.. @Sunnyskies

  • Indy Air Race 8.9 years ago

    Yea I'm having trouble deciding where my prop should go lol @MRstadlles

  • Indy Air Race 8.9 years ago

    This is strangely not my cup of tea. Never made a racer that wasn't faster than 600. Can't get the pitch correct and roll is waaaaaay too powerful.... @Tully2001

  • Indy Air Race 8.9 years ago

    Yup just spent an hour tinkering with a pencil like fuselage... Impossible to retain 700-900 mph in this race. Sigh... @MRstadlles

  • Indy Air Race 8.9 years ago

    Nudging is BS please exclude planes with wings that float 2M away from the plane... It's just silly and gives an agility advantage for both roll and pitch. @AndrewGarrison

  • Indy Air Race 8.9 years ago

    Because the AI cannot find its arse in the dark without a map, a flashlight and written instructions. @Oni789

  • 4th and 5+ generations fighters challenge news! 8.9 years ago

  • How long do you guys spend building your stuff? 8.9 years ago

    At least 5 hrs, at most a month, longest actual buikd was B&W seaplane that took around 31 hrs of build and test time

  • The Great Era 8.9 years ago

    Check out some of my old builds, if you need inspiration @Insertname

    I watched about 3 hrs of the stream last year lol, I would have stayed if I could, hopefully I'll be tuning in!

    ASAP @JacobHardy64

  • XML REQUEST NEEDED ASAP SOS CQD 8.9 years ago

    Yup don't need it exact just that type of logo design with XVI in the middle @JacobHardy64

  • 3rd Rate Ship of the Line 8.9 years ago

    A fourth rate ship of the line is commonly known as a frigate they are small convoy escorts with 30-50 cannons over two decks not for use in battle, very fast tho.
    A third rate carries no less than 200 men and no more than 300 men, they typically are slightly larger than frigates and have 60-80 guns on two or three decks these are commonly used to defend ports or bombard fortifications, but are sometimes used in battle.
    Second rates are larger and more powerful than third rates, but are cheaper than first rates, so most fleets have lots of second rates, they typically have 90 - 98 guns they typically have 2-3 gun decks and a crew of 750
    First rates are usualy used as flagships, they have 100 or more guns on three to four decks and a crew of typically 750, they are the battleships of the era and they deal extreme damage and they can take a beating too.

    You also then get the same but with steamships untill the pre Dreadnaught ironclads cobalT

  • We may have found the best watercraft/boat builder in SP! 8.9 years ago

    Simpler than my wing-built boats tho...

  • 3rd Rate Ship of the Line 8.9 years ago

    Port used to be Larboard. It was in common use when 3rd rates ruled the seas. @cobalT

  • ASEA (Authros Space Exploration Association) 8.9 years ago

    I may try and make an ATV or some kind of rover thingymabob whatsit.

  • ASEA (Authros Space Exploration Association) 8.9 years ago

    No problem! @Authros

  • XML REQUEST NEEDED ASAP SOS CQD 8.9 years ago

    I will be putting it on all my aircraft I don't care what it looks like as long as it looks somewhat like the picture in shape/style and has XVI in the middle, nothing else. @DandruffCat

  • 3rd Rate Ship of the Line 8.9 years ago

    Read Wikipedia on Nelson & The battle of trafalgar, it's very interesting. @BogdanX

  • It's Been So Long… 8.9 years ago

    Ahh@bskngshrk

  • XML REQUEST NEEDED ASAP SOS CQD 8.9 years ago

    It's not a flag it's an urgently needed logo of my company XVI I just need a basic version and I'll be happy @DandruffCat

  • 3rd Rate Ship of the Line 8.9 years ago

    I beleive you mean Larboard if you were referring to this ship, @cobalT

  • 3rd Rate Ship of the Line 8.9 years ago

    Vice admiral Horatio Nelson 1st Viscount Nelson 1st Duke of BrontƩ would not have chosen Sutch a ship, this kind of boat wast the light cruiser of the day. He would have (and did) choose a 1st rate, because he was Vice Admiral. Anyway, considering you did not refer to him by his full title I imagine you aren't an expert in British history. @BogdanX

  • XML REQUEST NEEDED ASAP SOS CQD 8.9 years ago

    They can be circles it does not Realy matter as long as it looks something like it @DandruffCat

  • 6,500ft PC Killer Tower 8.9 years ago

  • Mark IV Landship 8.9 years ago

    I'd say it has some mark VIII in it aswell, but still it looks lovely @kaaraabiner

  • ASEA Offworld Habitat 8.9 years ago

    Lovely.

  • ASEA (Authros Space Exploration Association) 8.9 years ago

    Although, if you need Xhiphias Volanti Inventum Industries (XVI) I'd be happy to help. Whatever that help would be lol.

  • ASEA (Authros Space Exploration Association) 8.9 years ago

    Nice to see you back man! I'm not too good at these things so I'll hang back and watch lol, I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do with the new pieces!

  • Mark IV Landship 8.9 years ago

    Overall a beautiful design, but lacking in some realism, but who cares lol, it's too awesome to notice! These things are amazing to see IRL they are so big and they look so powerful, I can't imagine how terrified the German soldiers would have been when they first saw the mk 1's rolling over their trenches on the first day of the Somme.

  • Mark IV Landship 8.9 years ago

    The original project was the land ship project, but simply due to security reasons us Brits cleverly renamed them water carriers.... But wait that's an awful name water carriers W.C's then the name must be water tank, but that's too long, so it was shortened to tank and it's still called a tank today. @Racrandall
