    @stealthyfan thanks!

  • A few tips for Super-Sonic flight 9.1 years ago

    @CanofBeans flat bottom airfoils produce the most lift at no angle of attack. Symmetric produces none, semi symmetric is in the middle. Those are for making sure that your plane flies level with no control input

  • A few tips for Super-Sonic flight 9.1 years ago

    A couple of corrections:

    Waisting - this is only really relevant at transonic speeds, which is why today's fighters don't have it - they have enough sheer power to bulldoze straight through the transonic region and in to higher supersonic regions, where waisting isn't so useful any more. SP doesn't really include mach effects like that anyway.

    Swept wings - whilst this is really important in real life, SP doesn't actually model it.

    Canards - not specifically better for high-speed flight, but often useful because jet-engined planes will have their CoM pretty far back. Canards can be further away from this and therefore make better use of a smaller control surface.

    The other stuff is good, though.

  • I HAVE FOUND A REAL PICTURE OF THE DEVS 9.1 years ago

    Don't beg for upvotes, that's just spam. Andrew's photo shows up on literally the first row of google images if you search his name anyway.

  • IAF's Gloster Meteor F.8 9.1 years ago

    @Itamar3553 I think BaconAircrafts was just frustrated that s/he had to wait to upvote you

  • MB-2 Toad(4) 9.1 years ago

    @pixelconcqueror well, criticism is fine, but it needs to be something useful and constructive. Bonehead's comment wasn't that

  • Stealth recon fighter 9.1 years ago

    Please don't post things that you didn't make. It's fine to post edits, but you must make substantial changes and improvements to justify it.

  • My Nigga 9.1 years ago

    Please don't swear on the site. This post has been removed, but if you sort the language and reply to me then I'll put it back up. This goes for all five of your planes.

  • fast as $h!t fun as F#@K 9.1 years ago

    Please don't swear on the site. This post has been removed, but if you sort the language and reply to me then I'll put it back up.

  • What is a good recording software? 9.1 years ago

    @BaconEggs obviously take the sensible precautions to back up everything that you should, but I personally feel that 10 is an enormous improvement. I kinda hated 8, though, so my opinion is a little coloured by that.

  • enzo ferrari with beta wheels 9.1 years ago

    @kikasshes yeah, I reckon that those should count as punctuation anyway. It's like a happy full stop!

  • What is a good recording software? 9.1 years ago

    If you're on Windows 10, the built-in game recording thing is pretty handy

  • enzo ferrari with beta wheels 9.1 years ago

    @kikasshes in my defence, there was no capital because the quote originally started with "Warbrine". The full stop was... definitely laziness hahaha.

  • "Undo" glitches 9.1 years ago

    @Flightsonic yeah, by this point I basically just avoid using it whenever possible haha

  • Coast heli 9.1 years ago

    Please don't post things that you didn't make. It's fine to post edits, but you must make substantial changes and improvements to justify it.

  • A330-300 9.1 years ago

    @Simpleplanesnumber809070 no problem, just remember the rules in future

  • enzo ferrari with beta wheels 9.1 years ago

    @kikasshes that's the one. This seems fine anyway, since it does actually make a pretty big functional difference by adding the new wheels

  • Messerschmitt BF-109 G-6 9.1 years ago

    @Manboy yeah, basically it's so that the features can help newer players get some attention

  • Hawknest 9.1 years ago

  • the j jet THEBESTYOUTUBEREVER 9.1 years ago

    Please don't name planes after YouTubers. We get a lot of people doing this, and it's basically just spam to everyone else. This post has been removed, but it can go back up if you change the name and reply to me.

  • 1980 Hatchback JDM 9.1 years ago

    @Sutairs that's fine now, thank you

  • Land speed record vehicle 9.1 years ago

    @dawidsowa no problem, it's fine if it's just an accident. How fast have you managed to get this going?

  • 1980 Hatchback JDM 9.1 years ago

    @Sutairs mate, come on. I hate that I need to remove Honda posts but it's to prevent potential serious legal action against Jundroo. I know it sucks, but that's the way it is.

  • Ode to MediocrePlanes 9.1 years ago

    Couldn't agree more. Med is the man.

  • fly bomb fly aw shit really this won't fly!!!! 9.1 years ago

    This post has been removed until the title is cleaned up. Reply to me when it has been sorted and I'll approve it

  • the kkk (they are racist) 9.1 years ago

    @ParadoxAircraft alright, no worries, just be more thoughtful in future, yeah?

  • Boeing 747-8 (v3) in flight tanker 9.1 years ago

    @Mox @Dalton02 the original creator seems happy enough, so I'll leave it

  • What's the weirdest plane ever? 9.1 years ago

    @Flightsonic too real :|

  • 1980 Hatchback JDM 9.1 years ago

    Yeah, I'm afraid that name change really isn't going to cut it. Reply to me once it's sorted and I'll approve the post again.

  • What's the weirdest plane ever? 9.1 years ago

    That plane is cool, I haven't seen that before. It seems like a pretty good idea if the technical challenges can be overcome, turnaround would be virtually zero.

    My own choice is probably the Fanwing, which is similar to Anton Flettner's Magnus effect designs.

  • J-14-Superior Fighter Final Edition 9.1 years ago

    @Thefalloutplayr it's fine, I never said you couldn't join in with discussions, I just didn't want people restarting that particular one.

  • how do resizable wheels work? 9.1 years ago

    Increasing the damper strength and reducing forward traction should help a bit.

    +1
  • Prevent Boat Nosediving 9.1 years ago

    Reducing the buoyancy at the back is usually helpful

  • Reinforce rotators bound/flexibility 9.1 years ago

    I don't know if this will work for your specific situation, but I've fixed some problems like this before. I had to make sure that the first thing attached to the rotator was a very short segment of structural wing. It seems that the connection strength depends on the part attached, rather than the rotator itself.

  • What if we could make steam engines? 9.1 years ago

    Definitely possible, it's just a question of who finds the patience first

  • MB-2 Toad(4) 9.1 years ago

    @bonehead what's the problem here?

  • jell plane 9.1 years ago

    Please don't name planes after YouTubers, this is considered spam.

  • SUPER SPEED 9.1 years ago

    @ShatteredAviation it no longer says that he did it himself, so I don't see a problem. The predecessor link is there

  • Beta shock absorber 9.1 years ago

    I can't recommend the mod that Latent posted enough. I did xml-edit rotations all the time, but even then the mod still made it a lot quicker and easier.

  • I'm so sorry! 9.1 years ago

    It's cool, it's not unusual for newer people to get frustrated about the lack of attention. After all, it had to happen quite a lot for the community to turn against it in the first place. I'll take a look at some of your planes and see if I can offer any advice. Otherwise, contests and tournaments can be a pretty good way of getting people to notice you, as well as helping with requests on the forums if you're able to

  • To all whom I have wronged. 9.1 years ago

    @PlanesOfOld it is taken seriously, but it's like you've been mugged in the UK and then asked the French police to do something about it.

  • To all whom I have wronged. 9.1 years ago

    @PlanesOfOld because he hasn't done anything to justify taking action against here. Would you expect me to ban people for what they've said on reddit, or YouTube? On this site, the one where I am meant to be keeping an eye on things, you and your supporters are the ones making the attacks.

  • Need urgent help ( upload error) 9.1 years ago

    The site's servers have issues sometimes. The only thing you can really do is wait a bit and see if it works later. If it's still broken tomorrow, contact the devs.

  • To all whom I have wronged. 9.1 years ago

    @PlanesOfOld look, I know that that is clearly mockery and harassment, but I don't know how many times you want me to say it: I cannot do anything about what happens on Everyplay. At all.
