Which profiles are you using on the two wings? Also if you're using delta wings, they can be kinda funny regardless of whether you have canards or not because the chord length is so long
NewAir is right about xml modding, but if you don't want to jailbreak your phone, you can just take the part from an existing plane and save it in your subassemblies
@Coen1888 if you put my name in a comment with an @ symbol, just like you do when you reply here, I'll get a notification so that I know to come see it when it's ready
@Coen1888 a lot of planes - especially smaller and simpler ones - get skipped over. It's unfortunate, but it happens. I worked really hard on this one and it got ignored completely for a month (link removed because I really, genuinely wasn't trying to advertise my old plane. Thank you to those who upvoted, though). It's okay, though - if you can build planes for yourself, you can just have fun and not worry about votes. I'll test your plane out and see if I can help
@Eli3777 yeah, I was a little unhappy about that, but it was just a quick build for the livestream. I'm gonna try to get a more refined version ready for next week
I started making the weirder insignias, but there's an issue with the Steam version that stopped me from getting some of the details down. I'm gonna look at them again after the next update
@Oicraftian sweet, I've managed to get some success using vectored thrust for that, but never purely aerodynamic control. Let me know how it turns out!
One thing I would add to this: don't take screenshots from the direct front,side, or top angles. We can see those anyway on your plane's page, and almost nothing on SP looks good or interesting from those angles
@LeoBrasi your options for better manoeuvering are to bring the CoL and CoM closer together, reduce the wing loading, and make sure that yousurfaces are as big as they can be without making your plane twitch under heavy turning
You'll need to add a less than symbol at the very start, and a greater than at the very end. SimplePlanes.com doesn't let you post comments with those included, sorry
@Dstroyer101 if the wheels you're using are landing gears, a small prop or jet engine is probably your best bet. You can even xml edit them to limit the max thrust, if you want. If you're using large wheels made from fuselage sections or something, VTOL nozzles on the wheels will probably work
@Oicraftian I'll be honest, I can't help you there. A good number of my planes never even get rudders. They're not a big part of controlling a plane most of the time, anyway
@crashedfrog I'm not the kind person to get upset over people copying my stuff or anything, but try not to do it. If you do want to make your own version, see what you can improve! Maybe you can get it handling better or something

The Aerion AS-2. It's a supersonic business jet concept with some nifty-looking laminar flow wings
These descriptions made me want to see all of them hahaha

@amazingperson124 patiently. I wish I had known when I was building this that structural panels don't block inlets, it would have made it a lot easier
@CDUflappy I didn't see what you posted, but are you alright?
Just a fraction above 7:1 for me, although that's a little inflated by the successor points from unlisted ones that I helped people with
@Coen1888 if you put my name in a comment with an @ symbol, just like you do when you reply here, I'll get a notification so that I know to come see it when it's ready
@amazingperson124 thanks for the vote!
@Coen1888 Sweet, tag me when it's ready so I can see!
@Coen1888 hmm, if you like supercars then maybe a James Bond Aston Martin with the rockets in the front grille
@Sirstupid I wasn't meaning for people to upvote that, but thank you very much anyway haha
@Coen1888 as for cars, Morgans are awesome

@Coen1888 well that's alright, we can help you! Once you know the basics you'll find it a lot easier
@Coen1888 what stops you from building planes?
@Eli3777 yeah, I was a little unhappy about that, but it was just a quick build for the livestream. I'm gonna try to get a more refined version ready for next week

@Samwise shouldn't do... but maybe it has. Are you able to get it back up to speed?
@Samwise did you change anything on it? Genuinely I didn't touch the prop
What are you trying to do with them?
@Oicraftian sweet, I've managed to get some success using vectored thrust for that, but never purely aerodynamic control. Let me know how it turns out!
@Dstroyer101 did it not work how you wanted? I can take a look if you want
@Samwise sorted. I didn't touch the prop because it actually already goes faster than you asked for anyway
@JMicah4 cheers dude. I'll upvote this instead, since it's unlisted
It might be worth using the T2000 prop instead, it's a bit wider and should line up nicely with the nose
@MADMAN81413 it is, and by the looks of things just a straight up copy. Thanks.
@Jochrivo have you actually changed anything, or is this just my plane?

Good luck with the exam, and congratulations on getting platinum too!
@Baldovino heh, fair enough then
@JMicah4 cheers, I'll have to go test yours out. I'll make sure that the my next version is a little more AI-friendly
@JMicah4 yeah, there's some kind of issue with the races just now. I can't help that the AI pilot flew terribly hahahaha
@JMicah4 oh don't you worry, if this is to become a regular feature then I'll build something properly fast
@Sirstupid if you don't fancy landing there yourself, you can paste this in to the locations section of your settings.xml.
You'll need to add a less than symbol at the very start, and a greater than at the very end. SimplePlanes.com doesn't let you post comments with those included, sorry
As HellFire said, xml edits are just a tool. It doesn't really matter which tool you use, it's the design that will make it work or not
@Rohan nah, the guns were mostly just an afterthought. It's not actually very good at dogfighting in AI hands because the yaw surfaces are way too big
@Codex1444 the best way to make a circular intake is to use one of the two big turbofan engines - they still count as intakes if the front is exposed
@Dstroyer101 if the wheels you're using are landing gears, a small prop or jet engine is probably your best bet. You can even xml edit them to limit the max thrust, if you want. If you're using large wheels made from fuselage sections or something, VTOL nozzles on the wheels will probably work
@Samwise do you still have it? I can take a look if you want
@Oicraftian I'll be honest, I can't help you there. A good number of my planes never even get rudders. They're not a big part of controlling a plane most of the time, anyway
@Oicraftian hey there's no reason to worry about it mate, the Zero handles excellently. I'll be sure to check those other planes out
Perfect for those of us that can't aim for love nor money! There is a definite satisfaction to just piling endless explosions in to everything
@dan242 thanks for looking out for that dude.
@crashedfrog I'm not the kind person to get upset over people copying my stuff or anything, but try not to do it. If you do want to make your own version, see what you can improve! Maybe you can get it handling better or something
Well, he got his answer...
@AndrewGarrison thanks for the clarification.
@Delphinus thanks to you too!
I put something together. I wanted to stay away from performance-boosting xml edits, so I've kept it simple
@RedHawk I don't mind where it goes, I just need to know a size to work to is all
@RedHawk Alright, I'll give it a shot some time over the weekend, but I can't guarantee anything, I've not done much stuff like this
@RocketLL I dunno, I haven't installed it yet. I haven't seen any mention of one, though, just the usual Everyplay stuff which only records the screen
