  • Perfect Level Terrain Response 4.6 years ago

    Being inspired by this, i am thinking about landing gear for uneven and unprepared runways...

    I feel like it should've been one of the default aircraft.

    @SyntheticL It's not ACTIVE, it's STOL/MTD.

  • Edo-45 4.8 years ago

    Nice aircraft, but take-off and stall speeds are too high for a "bush plane", they're approximately at 50-60 knots. A real bush planes have those speeds at 25-35 knots. So here i found and brought some examples of really low stall speed and true take-off-and-land-everywhere capability

    Is it capable of pulling stuff towards itself?

  • Turret control 4.8 years ago

    Ротаторы опять перманентно отказывают без видимых причин, особенно при постройке новой техники. Клавиша "починки" абсолютно не помогает. Я тщательно соблюдаю все указанные рекомендации и всегда проверяю соединения с designersuite. Впрочем, сейчас я сей мод переустановлю, авось перестанет выеживаться...

  • Su-34 4.9 years ago

    What if i'll try to change the construction of this aircraft to make a realistic weight numbers(22 metric tons empty, 35-40 tons gross, 45 tons MTOW) without compromising its flying characteristics? Will i face any serious challenges while doing so?

    Anyway, i gonna test and examine it.

  • Paveway II Guided Bomb 5.0 years ago

    Hmmm, i guess it isn't mirror friendly because of rotating ends of wing rotators being attached to the higher and smaller end of detacher?
    Edit: Yep, i guessed it right. I met the same problem: the mirror tool doesn't want to recognize this kind of connection at all.

  • Kh-38 Advanced Air-to-Surface missile 5.0 years ago

    @NotSoNormalPioneer ...because it knows where it isn't. It's like a motto of those who shares good feelings towards missiles.

  • Poyasakai AV.60C Ayanami-V 5.0 years ago

    @Bernkastel So maybe you should consider to make an initially heavy-weight VTOL fighter-bomber of 35-45 metric ton MTOW, like hybrid of Yak-141 and Su-24/FB-111? Imagine it carrying 25-30 OFAB-100-120 bombs, along with two pairs of Kh-29/Kh-38 missiles...

    Huh, hybrid of Mirage and Harrier, but is a heavy fighter. Mighty is this thing.

  • Counter Terrorist Challenge 5.1 years ago

    Is there any restrictions on payload weight? Is it permitted to slap multiple bombs/missiles on a single hardpoint, like there?https://www.defenseworld.net/uploads//news/big/brimstone_1522227623.jpg

    And does it still counts as a single hardpoint out of 11 available? What if instead of 30mm, I'll use the more precise estimation, namely the 30.48mm, which is exactly 1.2 inch?

  • Private Jet Challenge! 8 hours ago

    @Mineglacier7251yt It is just unrealistic and fundamentally senseless. Real-life business jets use pre-made engines and avionics, and business jets of different makers oftenly have engines and avionics of the same model from the same manufacturer. Usage of subassemblies should be allowed as it is in real-life planes. Also you still didn't reveal how will you grade the contestants.

  • [KE-RP][AR-RP] MDC AMH-100-UDM1 — Self Propelled Howitzer 8 days ago

    People say its just a PzH2000, I say its a PzH2000 with a heaped tablespoon of Maus.

  • AMS-01A L-B S-G 13 days ago

    "Proportional" as in "Predicted line of sight"? Might be very good choice for some corrected rockets.

  • TERRAM A-HIKER 13 days ago

    It looks aerotransportable.

  • Off-road car 13 days ago

    As they say, "it ain't much, but it's honest work".
    Also it reminded me of an International FTTS-UV with a teaspoon of Rheinmetall Gefas.

  • GD-A.1 Geier 15 days ago

    @UnguidedCylinder One of my favourite attackers. So, if an IRL A-10 used GE TF34s, this plane would've used a pair of Rolls-Royce RB.183 Tay engines?

  • SP2 | Fuselages Part 2 17 days ago

    And another proposal for when SP2 becomes mature enough: add an Aeroelasticity(or just elasticity) option to wings and fuselages to imitate certain IRL materials and technologies, like flexible wings of B787 and Wright Flyer.

  • !DRONE CHALLANGE! (CLOSED) 18 days ago

    Count me out of the contest, i've encountered some very specific landing gear problems which i don't know how to solve.

  • [SOLVED]Would someone please help me to find a stealth fighter jet build by description?(I just forgot its name and author) 24 days ago

    @jamesPLANESii HAHA! I FOUND THAT ONE! ITS

    CF-7X DENOUNCER
    And it even has upboops from both me and you, alongside some convergent resemblance to HYPERLOOP's King Raptor.

  • [SOLVED]Would someone please help me to find a stealth fighter jet build by description?(I just forgot its name and author) 24 days ago

    @jamesPLANESii Nuh, definitely not that one. It had a Su-57-styled livery with blue upperside and white/pale underside at the thumbnail. The quality(and style) was somewhat reminiscent of Dwiangkasaaeronautics's FAL-40 hipster, i. e. quite high, and at first i even thought that two-engined machine was of his making, and i still do not discount the possibility that it was his plane he may have deleted for some reason. And it either didn't have canards at all(using Lerx instead), or had them very close to the wings like those canarded Flankers.

  • SP2 | Propeller Engines 25 days ago

    Also, do these engines have a changeable ThrottleResponse value in their XMLs?

  • i need help with auto trim to speed 25 days ago

    (Trim * 0.5 * clamp01(1/(IAS/50)))+(Pitch * clamp01(1/(TIAS/(200-TIAS/3.2)))) This one is Trim'n'Pitch input, the TIAS is a variable that is (IAS+TAS)/2.

    (Trim * 0.5 * clamp01(1/(IAS/50))) This one is a trim-only input. Increase the IAS number if you feel that your trim is too small.

  • i need help with auto trim to speed 26 days ago

    @alexJgameYTukraine000000 I'll crank up my olde laptop and give you some of my stuff...

  • i need help with auto trim to speed 26 days ago

    Hmm, perhaps you'd need something simpler - an formula that reduces the trim input according to IAS? Auto-trim equations may be quite long and clanky.

  • Blohm and Voss P-170 one month ago

    @TheLoadingGorilla Well, there are two stabilisers right behind the outer engines.

  • Supersonic Bomber M1100A one month ago

  • F4E Phantom II one month ago

    If you have problem with cockpits, you can detach cockpit from Snargles F-4E, save it into subassemblies, and stuff that subassembly into your own plane.

  • F-4E PHANTOM II REMASTERED one month ago

    My favourite F-4 on this entire site. I remeber how i loaded it with 24 Mk82 bombs and dumped all of them upon a Maywar Convoy. Also METEOR made a music album dedicated to this plane.

  • Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25PD "Foxbat E" one month ago

    Hello. This one had a thrust asymmetry with left engine outputting 1.5 times more thrust than the right one due to their input controllers being at 3(left) and 2(right). I edited both engines to mx out at 2.5.

    Names of the music in the description are clickable links, so click them please! Also I'm ready to answer any questions you got about flying this plane.

  • [FT AAM] Spear MK.1 one month ago

    @biohazardz Well thats the problem. This type of missile needs an individual ingame flight computer to work, and it generally doesn't go well with "pull from subassemblies amd fire" operation.

  • Bomb Drop Order? one month ago

    @ShinyGemsBro Hehe, i found a solution though its still more complex than my other weaponry. Watch my recent weapon post for explanation. So, i took turbojets for this duty - and since unlike rotators and basic rockets they do not care about detachers, I had to find a way to manually designate their launch sequence, so that the ingame system of doing so wouldn't mess that up.

    I accomplish this by adding a secondary missile(R-21 Counter)/bomb(ATGM Counter) to each ordnance unit, so these secondary munitions would act as an ammo counter instead of a actual, primary munition. R-21 has that in the front part of its nosecone, while ATGM has it right behind its nosecone. These "counters" also have their AGs to disable themselves when selected.

    So, the actual munitions are only activated in a specific user-designated sequence, one at a time so the game wouldn't dare to launch the other one instead without firing its engine while the one with a working engine just remains attached to a plane. Also these secondary "counting" munitions better be made unlaunchable and undroppable by one and another way.

  • Missiles with user-designated firing sequence. one month ago

    As for my finished soviet jet, i still need some time to write its description. Yes, i'm that slow.
