Impressed with build quality! (It does up a few feet, all most SP users are looking for I guess.) Wish something this size could circumnavigate the entire island with SP flight controls.
The glitch is in common use; (not all craft with hi performance need it, it's a crutch) should be a special requirement there for a fair competition, IMHO.
@WalrusAirCraft luv the propellers, on this model. There's a trade-off of nozzle thrust vs rotating props here. Thanks for trying these out @TheDocHoliday
Cannot get it to work on iOS, but the model is fantastic! Future project: build one that's fuel-on-board + also works, and you'll be ahead of Convair. (Note as @WeeBabySeamus has discovered, the platform affects the reviewer only. The SP model is probably testable.)
Hey check out the propeller-driven model that also uses stock parts, but is still very different from all other P-51s:"Precious Metal" P51XR Racer @hypnotoad @jacobhardy64
@planelover400 This Q400 has huge modern six-bladed turboprops. Due to engine size & overall accuracy, the model is larger than I first thought it would be, but the flight testing worked well.
I posted one with modded engines, one without. I'll delete the mod. Most of my non- modded posts of SP models exceed Mach 1 and you can view and copy them if you wish.
@JoCaleb02 Hear you: BTW for same price I just got a warrantied Fire HDX, and this quad-core andriod is far faster than my iPad device. The newer Fire HDX models also beat other andriods on speed, just the browser needs improvement.
Nice look! It will always pitch up with those wing surfaces up front. Good luck, I'd like to test your next flightworthy attempt!
No det=1 just jettisoned gear, a good idea for a better in-cockpit view+speed. Thanks @missilemaker24
A creative, flying beauty!
Hi-lift design, creative!

Minor tweaks and this is also a good boat (amphibious) platform. Hope you try the amphibious variation!
Great creation! Good ground vehicle.....
Thanks @planesnthings
Thx @jacobhardy64
Thanks. @WWIIPlaneBuilder @Ctracerx2
Flys best over when over 1,000 mph.
Thanks @hypnotoad This was a challenge....to finish
Thanks @Ctracerx2 You might find the Douglas XB-42 Mixmaster Bomber interesting, a new post.
Thx @hypnotoad
Thx @hypnotoad @DethFromAbove
I just posted an XB-42 Mixmaster, kinda a crazy real test plane that worked. @DethFromAbove
@planesnthings this is a recent real Reno Air racer. Used upgraded Spitfire Griffon engines and propeller system.
Guess not - even ios updates do not change all compatibilities with the SP android SW and other platforms, give it some time.... @Zing2000
@WalrusAirCraft luv the propellers, on this model. There's a trade-off of nozzle thrust vs rotating props here. Thanks for trying these out @TheDocHoliday
Nice job of adapting those new propellers!
Thx for reviewing both, the second one performs better on mobiles! @planelover400
X-32A definitely- gonna build one on SP? @ElijtheGeat
Douglas XB-42 Mixmaster. I'm building one, so post one first!
Possible yet hard to fly - lots of forward thrust + lift, roll that is uneeded. Beautiful plane!

Zing2000 the looks are 7 stars+ but I cannot rate things I cannot fly on SP (maybe it's only my iOS). Fantastic Star Wars replica, though.
Haven't tried one yet, but this is generous to beginner devs like me (iOS). !
Thx @thedocholiday
The best VTOL model I've found on SP! Smooth transition to level with det=1 main thrust, VTOL up. Great!
Excellent!
Thanks for sharing useful building blocks! I'll try them some day.
Thanks, this is a very unique and real aircraft @Hyperion6

Cool one!
Thanks @DEMI @planesnthings
Yes, this is the re-painted one. Thx @planeliver400 @waterairland
Yeah, the paint was incomplete on this so I did a re-post, you may like better - thanks! @planelover400 @DEMI @Wormforce @Thebrendon55c
Check out my Dash 8 Q-400 Turboprop just posted. Six bladed props, easy to take off & land, no activators required on mine.

Thx @planesnthings
Bizzare, you got enough points, I like it!
Thx @jacobhardy64
Great spacecraft idea! Works well!

Structure appears fragile, yet control & thrust are carefully placed. I like it!
@TheStar Okay I'll do a new one for this, even tho dozens of good posts to this challenge were put up this week. I do this for fun, not points.
