You did a great job on the body, i think you could use some help with the wings and tail. i will blue link you a plane me and another user did that you can scavenge parts from to help you.
i dont understand why work to build a account to plat than just delete it and start a new acct? u could always just delete all your uploads and start fresh while maintaining what you built fir yourself...idk...its none of my business i suppose.
Nice Job! I just checked it out and thought it deserved a spotlight. Since I uploaded this i have implimented a variation on a plane of my own Dracon and discovered if you tune the rotators and engine power to the weight of your aircraft it will be capable of some amazing air manuevers. For instance if you adjust the pitch rotators on the dracon to 20’ you will see what i mean, i changed it to 15’ to make it easier to fly because it takes practice working with TV.

i just think its funny..i see people try to tear up peoples stealth planes all the time talking abt rcs and angles... its a GAME! if you want your tractor to be stealth then go for it!! i just think its funny is all....:-D @AviownCorp
Do you ever run out of cool ideas??? LOL! You know brains like yours do well in the Defense Industry...They may lock you in a DUMB though....Thats a acronym for Deep Underground Military Base....Keep up the awesome work FG!
does anyone remember the blocky straight edged F117 Nighthawk??? It ruled the skies of desert storm....Stealth is not just about shape as the F117 clearly showed...Coatings and Materials....Plus this is still a game right ??? lol

TY! took a very long time to get the engines right, it can be better now that i know how to mod a little bit. if i do a new version ill tag you. @AceOfSpade
MAN! you are like a treasure chest of good ideas!!! im going to try this out real quick ill let you know what i think shortly but it looks very fun and very cool!
Yes......it was a oversight on my part...you see the scaled down circular engine in the middle? It was previously modded to activate with AG-1, i forgot to change it but you can change the input to throttle or whatever you wish. My intent was to change them to VTOL so the engines would still have enough thrust for air maneuvers without having to use a afterburner.... because its nudged in around a lot of parts you have to zoom in to highlight the engine so you can change it. Hope this helps!

ahhhh... you failed to pick up on the sarcasm...if you took the time to read what was written correctly you would notice that the theme is “ dont worry about it just enjoy yourselft and have fun “. next time, before you blindly aid someone take the time to understand the comments correctly. Also, a forum post is not “private”. A forum post is essentially a post that is made so that all parties that have access to said forum can read and comment on said post. So again, before blindly writing jibberish take the time to understand what is actually being communicated in the forum post. @Kazin
i would def take 10 old camrys, gives you a large pool of vehicles to take parts from if needed down the road and they are historically very reliable. @TheDepressedPig
I have a feeling Kaos has a main account that we all prob know. He is too knowledgable to lurk in the shadows with no posts.... just my humble opinion lol

@Kaos
you got a lot of attention with this from a lot of people and you disappeared. remember, almost half of your rating came from this and you didnt fulfill the challenge. @BeefyBoy4516
can i make a suggestion jacob? ive noticed challenges get more attention when the rewards are better. maybe offer 15 upvotes to winner, 10 to 2nd, 5 to 3rd etc...
NASA is well known for being the black hole of projects. i have a theory that some of these projects over the years are actually just “fronts” for other budgeting purposes. What other defense type contractors could continue getting contracts that go way over budget with little results? with all the $ nasa has been given we dont even have the best telescopes. i recently read that the vatican actually has the most advanced telescope on the planet called “lucifer”. Nasa is still living off the apollo missions fame in my opinion
i read that the LWFP , the program that GD won with their F16 was a politcal choice. everything ive read said the YF17 performed better. it eventually became the F18 anyways @JohnnyBoythePilot
the 23 was unable to complete the weapons testing that the program required. theres a lot more reasons than just making a choice they actually have to pass certain tests or face elimination. boeing tried to beat lockheed for the jsf program, boeing hadnt made a fighter in over 60 years and they didnt have the knowledge that lockheed had in the industry and it showed with all of their poor decisions with everything from coatings, wings to engine choices. theres a great documentary on youtube called the battle of x planes that showcases this in detail. i personally think the 23 wouldve been a better choice but they werent able to showcase a complete aircraft, same with the x-32, boeing made a lot of “promised” changes to the plane that they couldnt showcase during testing @ForeverPie
You did a great job on the body, i think you could use some help with the wings and tail. i will blue link you a plane me and another user did that you can scavenge parts from to help you.
have you tried out any of the entries yet? I ran this against FGW2014 plankton to set the bar. It was about 50/50 win lose for me.
@Jacobdaniel
TY for the upvotes!
@ThePrototype
@Jacobdaniel
nice! i agree with CRJ but its easy to see you put a LOT of effort into this well done!
i dont understand why work to build a account to plat than just delete it and start a new acct? u could always just delete all your uploads and start fresh while maintaining what you built fir yourself...idk...its none of my business i suppose.
awesome
The challenge you built this for has disappeared.... so now its time for you to do a challenge....wink wink..
really interesting build! its easy to see you put a lot of time into this. great job

Nice Job! the engines work well with the airframe, its difficult to work with thrust vectoring on here.
welcome back!
Drone Challenge if you are interested. This is really nice.

BTW.....You are getting mighty close to the highly regarded platinum color....you planning anything special?

ty bud! i hope you are able to get some use out of it. @LuciferOfPoland
Also, i see you like the Osprey, i built a similar type of aircraft if you want to check it out, the VX-50. its on my profile page.
@AceOfSpade
Sure no problem! Tag me if you can remember i always like to see how builds are changed up. Thanks for the upvote also! @AceOfSpade

1ST!!! Now I have to see what this is about now... LOL :-D
EDIT This is really neat of you to share this with everyone. It's a great representation of how to make the physics work for you. Thanks Sled!
TY for posting the results finally :-D

Congrats! I knew better LOL! Yours beat me quite easily :-D , TY TMach

I say a little bit of both...you can have quality in quantities if you are talented enough.

@FGW2014
this thing is really quite cool!
Ahhhhh! so the picture issues are with imgur? i just kinda noticed my pics werent showing up on some of my builds.
TY buddy! sorry i havent been on much lately, i need to get caught up on my favorite weapon builder @EliteArsenals24
tell you what, ill look at that 747 phantom test plane and build something new for you. is there a time frame for needing this ? @JohnnyBoythePilot
if you prefer the gs-1 type of plane i can update it also. it was a early build of mine and could use some modifying.@JohnnyBoythePilot
ME TO!!! i like how they have live feeds with their launches. @JohnnyBoythePilot

is the manta too large? what abt the VX2 ? @JohnnyBoythePilot
