It will be great if the player can import bitmap/JPG/PNG file as a texture (as other 3D programs like 3D-Max/Blender/Maya. There could be a file size and pixel dimension limit to maintain the game performance.
@Sockdragger Theoretically yes, but well.. I reduced the tail rotor to minimal for the gaming purpose. I would love to see your creation. Please feel free to modify -
@Johnnyynf I did not use any mods, and it works fine. I saw that the "limitless spin mod" was created 8.3 years ago. Perhaps we no longer need that. I use FREE rotation. Set the rotation angle to zero.
@Harpyharold Thanks, Some stork parts looks very complex but it only count as one. Try using them - which will reduce your part count. Also, just think how to reduce unnecessary parts
@SilverStar Thanks. Theoretically, you are correct. I also experimented with a large vertical stabilizer to eliminate the need for the tail rotor, but it did not work well. For smoother handling and gaming purposes, I decided to keep the tail rotor, although I have reduced its power to a minimum.
No main helicopter propellers - it just used rotating wings with the jets on the tips. Watch this- I have proven the concept of the tip-Jet helicopter concept from the 1950s by this build. It is a controllable helicopter- good handling even with the experimental main rotors. T for tag
@BOSSentinel, Both your challenges (seaplane and turboprop attacks) are great. Unfortunately, I was busy and couldn't participate in either of them. I'm glad I at least spotlighted both of them.
@Boeing727200F That will be funny
@Sockdragger let me know if you find difficulty
@Sockdragger another autogyro
@Sockdragger, the main rootr is powerless, just a rotating wing
@GrandPrix, but do 3D programs accept it as a skin/texture?

@Johnnyynf I play on iPad, and I can't use any mods.

@Johnnyynf give the spin limit to a few billions and that will works

@KorKaiorWhatever Lol, thanks
@jamesPLANESii the fun side with this technique is, you give a better glide than a regular main rotors (since it is based on two wings)
@jamesPLANESii Oh really? so there was no helicopter blades back then?
@Monarchii This was inspired by YH-32 Hornet, which I saw at the National Air and Space Museum in Washington DC last year.

@Boeing727200F Lol, yes, the cockpit is upside down, part of an Airbus cockpit - thanks to @realSavageMan
beautiful work
Nice, now it is flying well

Watch the nice takeoff and landing - it's easy to fly. Download 925A at this link: Vireo-925-A
Built using under 100 parts, with minimal XML editing involved, it relies on basic Physics.
good luck! spotlighted for all
@Sockdragger Thank you so much for sharing
@Sockdragger yes. It is very hard (and sweet in the same time) I get you.
this is very helpful. great job
@Sockdragger Yes, that was by Horton Brothers - when they move to Argentina after the war
beautiful
@Monarchii This is called "Monarchii in the Airship mood"
@TheUltimatePlaneLover @Sockdragger true, SAAB-29 + MiG 15+f86. Lol
@Sockdragger Lol, it is a fictional name.
@DimitriIqbal91, what do you mean?
@Souplane thanks
@Monarchii no problem
nice
@BOSSentinel Ah, I see, but I loosely referenced to Swedish "Tunnan" the barrel - SAAB 29
@BOSSentinel Thank you! try this! looks simple but you might like it
This is a BLOCK BUILD with VR
@PUMPKINSIDD This is when English Electric Lightning got side-by-side engines - lol.

@BOSSentinel most of my concepts and PEA are here -
