Man, this thing performs perfectly, and looks awesome! The machine guns are a nice touch, as well as the Engine vents, hidden missile pods, and engines. Awesome job!
@LordofLego Man it would be cool to see the line up! Oh man, even the riding lawn mowers at Home Depot where the best thing! My dad (Walrus .Sr) would take pictures of me on them, pretending to ride them! Those where the days!
OK, here is how you fix this. I did this and it flys fine: 1) add three blocks in front of your rear wings, making the plane longer. 2) Remove all fuel from the rear wings. 3) remove detacher force on your front wheels and ditch the wheels when you take off. 4) Make your pitch control surfaces a bit smaller so they don't pitch the aircraft so violently. To fly, you need to use 30% power then slide the VTOL control 95% down. After you ditch the wheels you can fly around and have fun! http://i.imgur.com/TYFBvWW.jpg
@PlanesOfOld - I'll try to get the cross for you. I've never made one that small before. I need to work on the Macedonian roundel for @Vikdesigns first. I've also been struggling with a huge Russian Bear build, which is sucking up my time. I'll do my best, sir!
@aircraftarsenal123 - I've updated your airplane and provided the details. Let me know if you like it. I'm asking people not to rate, but they appear to be doing it anyway.
@aircraftarsenal123 - I'm going to look at your plane tonight. I noticed you have OSX, so you can actually mod the XML. Here are some notes I've compiled that might help you. https://www.reddit.com/r/SimplePlanes/comments/3acdsn/modding_notes/
@LordofLego - thank you for your reply. I typically don't call out others is because it generally starts flame wars that are bad for the community. In your case I see a talented builder who I follow, and others look up to. It is your choice on how to play the game. It is just a game after all. Any attempt to get something in the air is an achievement, especially for new users. I hope you have a good day, and best of luck on your upcoming build.
@LordofLego - it is your decision on how to rate planes, but I noticed you tend to hand out 4 stars with some description of a fault. I personally never hand out less than 5 stars since it affects the rankings. I've seen it happen to some of the best planes on this site. If you choose to hand out lower scores (and it is your right to do so), then I might suggest you offer solutions to fix the problem, or even better try to fix the issue and release it again. The community would appreciate you and your efforts more if you did this.
@Stingray - I sort of know what's coming, but I can't say much. I have some videos Kevin sent me flying my JU 52 out of the new hanger and past some U-boat pens and docs, then landing on a primitive dirt landing strip next to some huts on a different island. So much cool is coming. The challenge is they have to slim everything down for mobile.
@Authros @Wakescar @corey1324 @Eric314 - Thanks for the ratings, guys. I'm a little behind on my testing of your latest and greatest, so please forgive me. I see the rockets Eric314 put out and Aurhros awesomeness. Corey and Wakescar I don't see any recent stuff from you guys, but I do follow you guys.
Thanks @stingray ! I'm behind on my thank yous and testing and rating. I'm wondering if the community would like me to release them like my other props.
@TheSoundofLight - when you are using custom colors and nothing seems to work, click to the default color scheme and back to custom. It "unfreezes" the colors again and you can work to make your changes. I'll download and check your work out when I get home. :-). Cheers mate!
@Vikdesigns - I've lived in Winnipeg and Calgary. My parents live outside Vancouver these days. Yes, it is a beautiful city. Initially it was not on my mind to move to the US, but I was recruited by a high tech firm, and have been living here ever since. What brought you to the US? Also, what city should I first visit in your home county?
@abhdy @PlanesOfOld @Nighraider @JMicah4 @carter2 @Spikerya @nickasaurusrex @Geebers @JacobHardy64 Thanks everyone for your 5 star ratings. You guys are all great!
@LordofLego On which one?
Oh, sorry I don't want to confuse you, Walrus .Sr wanted a tractor, but I did not know he made a request already. Just do which ever. Thanks!
Nice! Can you make a 1976 4430? That would be great. Thanks!
Man, this thing performs perfectly, and looks awesome! The machine guns are a nice touch, as well as the Engine vents, hidden missile pods, and engines. Awesome job!
@TheHardcoreFlyer - all right. I just don't want to skew the points for making such easy fixes.
Very nice. Sr. here. I used to drive a lot of Deere. I would like to see a large, articulated version once you are done with your series.
@LordofLego Man it would be cool to see the line up! Oh man, even the riding lawn mowers at Home Depot where the best thing! My dad (Walrus .Sr) would take pictures of me on them, pretending to ride them! Those where the days!
Ever since I (Walrus .Jr) two, John Deere tractors where the best thing in the world! Nice job buddy, brings back memories!
Nice job! Looks nice, but takes some skill to fly! It dose fly quite fast!
Your best job yet!

@carter2 it is nice of you to help someone in need. :-)
@Vikdesigns - Yes... I'll do that tonight.

Nice job! Flys outstandingly great! I like the simple cockpit view!
@PlanesOfOld - at work... Can't talk now.
Wonderful! It looks, flys, and lands exactly as you would expect. I achieved a perfect landing. Walrus Jr and Sr approve!
@GAMERmisko - I guess it is different. Most people create American planes. I also like the Russian planes. I plan on creating a b-29.
I also really like how you made the decal. It was a bit of work, but it looks great!
Seriously cool. Excellent job.
@LordofLego - thanks, I'll check it out tonight.
@planelover400 - yes it will be :-)
@planelover400 - man, if it can get the lagout of my Bear I'd be happy. That thing is huge.
Don't forget to give ratings to the original creator. I just wanted to help.
@aircraftarsenal123 - I've updated your airplane and provided the details. Let me know if you like it. I'm asking people not to rate, but they appear to be doing it anyway.
@aircraftarsenal123 - I've made some changes. Please try this out.

It was fun to play with these in the water. I used 2% power for best results steering around the boats.
@LordofLego - I see that now. Thank you for alerting me to it. I'll try it out in about six hours. My day is getting quite busy now. Cheers!

@aircraftarsenal123 - I suspect we can made some adjustments to your COM, and made some minor wing changes. Would you like some help?

@Vikdesigns - Yes, in Broomfield. BTW, stared working on the insignia. It is a little more involved than I first thought.

@Stingray - Your Convair-XF-92 flys great in Beta 2 by the way.
That's a pretty dam great airplane. Flys awesome dude!

@Vikdesigns - Oracle
@Vikdesigns - cool! Thanks! btw - your old CEO now works for my company.
@WalrusAircraft- Walrus Sr. I had no idea you released this! Stop with the surprises it's not healthy for me! ;-)

Nice! I don't know why some people give 4 stars when they can't fly something. This was a good build.

@Vikdesigns - I've always wanted to visit that part of Europe. Your country looks very appealing. I moved to the US from Canada back in 2001.
@ramjet @tominator - you guys are funny. :-) I've got to get to bed. Cheers!
