Thanks although with unmodded engines this handles like a long-reach bomber only, (the Mixmaster was a prototype bomber). I hate its handling and nearly deleted it. @Nickasaurus
Well, gonna weaponize some models that are a bit slower, so weapons effect can be seen -- on this one, you would see where the weapons went in your rear view mirror!~ @JFP0829
@JFP0829 I stand corrected. My iOS mobile just did an auto-update, it has new SP swing with a built-in bridge demolition challenge. So, re-think your challenge. It's kinda like challenging folks to make a landing. I am going to post a few new deadly boats that are both anti-bridge and anti-ship.
@JFP0829 So far they cannot be broken, only hit. The USS Tiny and USS Jundroo ships can have their castles and bows blown off, using the classic SP version I use. The new game-version missiles/bombs are graphics effects and have no simulated mass. Unlike my classic game SP uses my modded high-impact torpedoes and missiles. Unsure what I could offer by bridge bombing.
OK, thx. Concerned about losing all SP subassemblies+planes since both beta and non-beta files are within the Mac OS and I can't touch them or save them individually. File loss has happened before. @Nickasaurus
Understood. Someday mine will fail, too, and I'm unsure if I'll get another since my iOS tablet will really do everything the Kindle Fire does, and runs apps faster. @Shipmaster
@Nickasaurus and @Shipmaster FYI the 2 platforms I use by preference, Amazon Fire android and Apple iOS will not even download the popular Windows newest models, and I'm getting the "you do cannot download the new parts " message when I try. So, I skip over the Windows builds. (Jundroo or AndrewGarrison might fix this sometime in the TBD future.)
@Shipmaster Agree! Almost. Just a game to me. I enjoy building the models regardless of platform. (If this were "competition" not game, I would probably tweak my old Mac desktop a bit or just get a cheap Winders platform.) To all, I am not competing for IW points. Also, I don't "upvote" automatically. I always test. Thoroughly.
Nickasaurus I like it, but the challenge was .... very ambiguous. In about 20 seconds I built a very simple model using a couple subassemblies on an iPad. The iPad GUI is no match for Windows GUI, so I pretty much have stopped "upvoting" Window models until Jundroo levels the playing field.
I still get about the same speed as the original I guilt, glad you liked it and re-used it! You are learning about building stuff, so: the outer pylons an be very unstable for engines in future builds for models with this kind of speed. For slower models, you can place engines just about anywhere!
With either my tablet or desktop GUI, in 30 sec to 4 minites an untested build is feasible. But, you did not factor in testing time, so I gotta go with @Rohan on this, do not invite bad builds. Suggest non-modded parts/engines/fuel, number of blocks maybe, and maybe total plane weight in the future. You did NOT rule out subassemblies. Using non-modded wings/tails I will provide a simple build that takes me only 30 seconds, will post shortly.
I've liked the Skylon design. BTW, both Boeing and Lockheed had different SSTO designs, that used more advanced Scamjet engine concepts than the Skylon.
I belive others have copied it and done that, but yes, I could easily mod it again. I'll keep it in mind; several models I've posted have similar capabilities. @Stingray
Yeah, the BV347 was made under an Army contract. No reason it could not serve the Navy. The design can touch down on water, and takeoff again. @BroGuest101
Thanks @Kimo
Thanks @Kimo
Thank you, @Sirstupid
@Hypixel Thank you! (The Mothership needs a new core body.)
@Hypixel Thx, next I gotta make one that actually hovers!

Thank you, @FIRESHOOTER
Yes, this has Mass! Try it on s large ship, also! @JFP0829
Thank you, @flyingsteve88
Thank you, (I want to do a better version with modded thrust & fuel, the thrust is less than half needed here, but "No" mods anywhere.) @Delphinus
Thank you, @Nickasaurus
Thx, been busy, away from main platforms (I don't count my iPhone 5S as a platform.) @Delphinus

It's great on iOS. I just demolished Murphy Bridge using a NATO/Polish Su-22M4 model, with the hellfire missiles!
Thank you, @bjac0 (BTW this model is great at demolishing Murphy Bridge.)
@JFP0829 I just blew up Murphy Bridge with an old Su-22M4 model. Needs direct hits at low altitude, along the bridge walkway.

@Stingray "be" not "delete" in last comment......
Doubt I'll delete able to download these (T B D) but a great idea to share!

Looking good @Rohan. Does iOS have the latest update yet, I cannot download it........

Amazing build! Suggest adding Hint: takeoff 20% power -- rotate forward (use VTOL slide Down), then increase thrust. Works great!

Thank you @PotatoPilot
Thx! @Nickasaurus
Even at 20% thrust, it sorta wants to go straight up!
Thx, @Rohan

Neat! You're using the same control tricks that work on my newer helicopter models.
Yes, built to violate simple SP physics. My planes often do so. @TheMajesticMrL
