Beautiful! Flies realistically as well. Landings a tad hard as this thing flies like a kite and won’t slow down. I’ve never laid eyes on it but was this made using the designer suite?
I take it you must play wow? Used to play wow blitz. Before they stopped it working on older iOS devices (bar-stewards). Had some respectable level 6 ships too...
Another neat build. In my humble opinion I would not use the ‘muzzle brake’ thing on a naval gun as it’s not realistic. I’d also look at the turrets elevation as it can go vertical both up and down seemingly. You can stop the barrels lowering past a certain angle by changing the ‘min’ value on the hinges to something like -0.1 under ‘input controller’. Hope this helps, it’s nice to see someone who is keen on naval builds!
Perhaps I will try that in future. It took 4 attempts just to upload it without it crashing. Probably won’t be doing another large build on this again. Damn frustrating. @EternalDarkness
I like your attention to detail and the proportions are there. Can’t believe your bronze! Is the tail finished, I think it could be more part efficient with smoother lines which can be achieved by using different parts like intakes - maybe a trivial point and I’m sure you’ll pick these things up quickly! Have a look at how the pros make tails sections. I made a “Mossie” a while back and think that’s the closest I’ve got to doing a good job of a tail plane - it’s by no means the best but it may give you an idea how to get clean(er) lines.
Battlecruisers against battleships. The navy never learnt it’s lesson at Jutland. They were no match for a standup battleships, they were never intended to take them on. @TrislandianAlliance
This is a leviathan! Very impressive looking too I must say! As an avid builder of warships I may need a little advice from an expert. Is there a way to get battery firing guns with the new cannon part i.e. both barrels of a turret firing simultaneously? Also when using the rotators with pitch and roll for turret movement, is there a way to stop them from ‘auto’ returning to central?
I’m trying to put together a protected cruiser for a bit of a change in theme and I mentioned a BAC 1-11. I’ve also got a BAC EAP I need to polish up that’s been sat around since before the 1.9 update..... how about yourself? @TheFantasticTyphoon
It was indeed. If I remember rightly in my research, China and Cyprus were the only exports. The last Trident being retired in China in ‘95! @QingyuZhou
Your a gent! Honestly can’t tell where that went wrong. Even the unlisted version I showed you had it as a successor. Apologies, maybe you can dock a few points for that! @ACEPILOT109
Damn, just noticed this is not a successor post for some reason even though I downloaded the post and kept the same cockpit . Is there an easy way of turning this into a successor post on iOS? @ACEPILOT109
Loved that game. Even if i get a new(er) device you can be sure I won’t be playing that again. I’ve even noticed on WoT some of the matches you get put into are massively biased to one side on the variants. Don’t get me started on the tier system they have, that beggars belief! Yeah a tier 3 1930s tank can be pitted against a mid 40s tier 5.... hmmmm wargammer.net are you punishing me for NOT spending money on what is a free game. Anyway, glad the devs are on our side. I’d pay 20 quid towards their staff night out anyday! @Mustang51
I had wowblitz for years. They turned around after months and months of in game problems stating “we no longer support your device” please spend more money on a newer device you peasant we’ve cut you loose Can’t really complain with sp! @Mustang51
Apologies for not supporting that post. I rarely go through forums but that would have got my support! Strikes me as the same difference. 5 quid for a new game or the same again for an update. Being the clever clogs that they are they could have partitioned the update until people paid? Dunno, I know absolutely nothing about programming etc. @Mustang51
I think they should have integrated SR into SP but then they couldn’t make money out it. Tbh if they asked me to fork out another 5 quid to use this “new expansion to the game” i would have probably paid it @Mustang51
I like space don’t get me wrong. But there’s just not the diversity compared to planes. I imagine the Saturn V/Soyuz rockets have become the new P-51/Mig/Mc’douglasboeing/airbus that frequent the market. @Mustang51
Well, this wasn’t exactly advertised by the devs (understandably). They couldn’t get the designer suite to work for older iOS devices so they left it out. Hence all my work has to be eye-balled till I’m cross-eyed! Massive let down the one feature I was hyped about wasn’t going to work on my device. Can’t really complain - genuinely surprised they made an update after the release of SR2. I’d imagine they’d still be ironing out bugs for that release. @Mustang51
If you know where radar coverage is and you switch your transponder off what’s tracking you? The ocean is a huge search area. Even floating debris drifts in various currents. @LeHieu000111
Jezza! When he does a documentary I’m fully onboard. The PQ17 convoy documentary is another brilliant relatively-unheard-of story. Don’t know your age group but back shortly after the millennium there was the ‘Greatest Briton’ series on telly and jezza did Brunel. “Lady Diana (a candidate for the same
series) I’m sure she’s a lovely person. But she’s not even in the same league!” I have no beef against Diana. She raised awareness and support for many charities and should be remembered for her work during her lifetime (before I get hate mail)
I made one ages ago with a detachable mk1 Land Rover. It’s a rather underrepresented type and I wish I had the time to make one next but I’ve kinda mentioned I’d be doing a 1-11 next. I’ve been to Fort Paul outside Hull where the only surviving Beverley is. It’s a well thought out design and fullfills so many roles. They were actually made not far from where the only surviving type rests which is quite fitting. The Bev’ is a big bird too. I recommend a visit depending on where you’re based of course! @TheFantasticTyphoon

+2No worries, thoroughly deserving of more attention! @Datom
Very nice detail above the water line! Why are the shells so big compared to the barrels?
I take it you must play wow? Used to play wow blitz. Before they stopped it working on older iOS devices (bar-stewards). Had some respectable level 6 ships too...
That handles the part count well enough? @jelybaca
Great Scott! What iOS device are you using out of curiosity?

Love gta5!

Neat build, why’s it in a tube?
Broke free on its way to the scrapyard and rammed the still and west pub in Portsmouth. Nice build!
+1Ha ha something not to worry about! @KUBI

P.s it’s looking good!
Honestly. I think oh another P-51....... with that said I guess If you want upvotes a ‘51 is the way to go.
+2Very cool!
Liking your work with these ships, what’s with the hull arrangement back aft?
Battlecruisers against battleships. The navy never learnt it’s lesson at Jutland. They were no match for a standup battleships, they were never intended to take them on. @TrislandianAlliance
Beautiful looking build, I do like the hull shape, really well done! Shame it’s got the performance of a jet fighter though. 600mph at sea level.....
It just shouldn't float. Yet it does........
x4 20mm cannons per wing.....that’s a heavy wing! Good stuff though glad to see your work again!
+1Thanks for the advice! I’ll be sure to try that out. @Feanor
+1Oh my......!

+1Ha ha thank you guys, most touching for your continued support! @TheFantasticTyphoon @asteroidbook345 @Mustang51
+2Very neat build, don’t worry about long descriptions - I like a good read! Second generation jets generally had short lifespans.
+1Thank you, the nose gear of the trident had to be offset to accommodate the advanced avionics. @Cassio11
It was indeed. If I remember rightly in my research, China and Cyprus were the only exports. The last Trident being retired in China in ‘95! @QingyuZhou
Please don’t upvote if you upvoted the original. The was meant as a challenge entry. For whatever reason it didn’t submit as a successor post.
Thought I’d make it a successor. I know you were willing to accept it as it was but it just didn’t seem right.
@ACEPILOT109
Is that 2x the time taken to spool up? @MethaManAircraft
Surely thats slower acceleration, lower fuel consumption? That’s a useful tip though I’ll have to try that. @MethaManAircraft
Your a gent! Honestly can’t tell where that went wrong. Even the unlisted version I showed you had it as a successor. Apologies, maybe you can dock a few points for that! @ACEPILOT109

Nice build. Green isn’t quite ‘battleship grey’ what made you choose that colour outta curiosity?
What I would give for designer suite..... nice spit!
