@GalacticaAsia thanks for the advice and sorry for taking so long to reply. I originally had a similar setup to your A330 where the back was weighted to cause the tilt. I have since added a spring and piston per the advice of PlaneFlightX and it works pretty nicely. I’ll definitely be looking out for your control base method when you post it though. Sounds interesting!
Nice detailed aircraft. I appreciate that you took the time to make all the gear doors open to have the gear retract into an actual opening in the aircraft. (Most people don’t do this) The aircraft is a bit tricky to handle, but a little bit of XML could fix that. Overall, cool build!
@fleia262 here is the link to a pdf Boeing published. On page 20/21 there are ortho drawings of the -200 and -300. They helped me a lot with getting the basic shape of the aircraft, but you may need to find pictures of you want to have more detail. Also, this is the link if you want other Boeing models. I haven’t checked these, but they should have decent drawings. Hope this helps!
Cool! I actually just started making a 777-200 a couple of weeks ago. If you would like some blueprints for the basic shape, I’d be glad to give them to you.
Nice job! I was wondering when someone would finally make a successor the Stationair. The instrument lighting is something I didn’t expect, but it looks quite good in the cockpit you made. 👍
@Soardivision160th Overload is used to edit XML and it can be done on mobile. In the editor just select a part, click the overload icon on the bottom, and change the 1 on the right of “massScale” to a 0.
fyi: It might take a while to do all the parts of your plane, so I would focus on the larger ones first.
Hi @Gastonplanes,
Cool concept! If you want help on a build, I recommend describing a bit what you would like to be done. Also, perhaps you should stick with 1-2 projects so that you can manage it easier. I don’t mean to tell you what to do, but many of your planes have potential so I wanted to give you some pointers.

+1@PlaneFlightX– Thanks, that works quite well! I should have known by now that your SWL-120 has a similar feature.

Is that Tinkercad? Great models btw
Thank you!
Hi @Vincent, could you please make this post a successor to this (https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/YbIuoU/Christmas-Challenge-OPEN) challenge? Thank you
+1@PlaneFlightX oh yeah… thanks :)
@Bellcat Thanks! Yep, in real life that hat would be a bit disruptive.
Awesome job!
Yay, it has the wonky engine cowlings
Great build!
+1Thanks for the suggestions! I’ll definitely consider them.
Great startup sequence! The cockpit is well detailed.
+1L-1011?
Thank you @Phoebe and @PlaneFlightX for your help!
I have a pretty stable altitude/vs system working now, just have some work on the heading stuff.
This is the link to the plane for PlaneFlightX.
@PlaneFlightX,
+1If you have time, could you help?
I love SP physics :)
2024? Veeery long term
+1Love the start up stuff, keep up the good work!
gween is cool because twees are gween
+1@DARZAVIATIONOFICIAL Thank you! And congratulations to the other participants!

It looks like you need to make the plane lighter with xml. Try aim for around 75000 lbs.
edit: maybe actually around 120,000 lbs. due to the size of your plane.
Hmm, that’s interesting
@X99STRIKER Yes, the screenshots are from a small turboprop I’m working on.
Looks like a pod racer
@PlaneFlightX
+1Thanks, that’s very helpful!

hehe
+3Thanks everyone!
Cool! T
+1I wish you luck on the livery :)
T
+1Great plane! It’s detailed without being overly complex
Looks great so far! T
Very Nice!
+1Oh no, not trig
+1First ship I’ve downloaded in a while and I can’t stop shooting the ai planes with the CIWS. Great build!
+1It’s nice too see I’m not the only one. I suppose this game is called simple planes for a reason :)
@X99STRIKER
That’s a good idea.
I’ve done that too, lol
T
+1Can I submit a modified version of a plane that I already posted?
Nicely made plane, but quite unstable in flight

Thx for the reminder PlaneFlightX; T if you want to be tagged on the Stationair.
Thanks @RaendyLeBeau!
Incredible! I can just barely run it on mobile, but it looks amazing!
I like the cup holders too :)
