Smallest Plane Ever

Description
A cheap scout where it's no big deal if it gets shot down. Like all my techs, this one is designed for perfect functionality and controllability. 145 mp/h fully controllable. No energy, no weapons. To take off, just hold "W"+"Shift" until it has taken off the ground. During the flight it keeps the altitude almost by itself. A convenient way to land safely is not to press anything anymore. It will then land very gently by itself.

This makes it the perfect tool for comfortably mastering the challenge "Falling with Style" (500 m glide) in the game!

Maybe you'd also like to see what I've redesigned, inspired by other people's models, to be fully functional for in-game use:

Or perhaps you'd like the " Bumblebee ", designed by myself as the end result of the "Small Airplanes" series and perfected for use in the game, in which I have integrated and combined everything that has proven to be advantageous for other models. It consists of only 19 components and is therefore one of the smallest and even the most perfectly controllable aircraft of all my models: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1447666881

How to place a tech from Steam workshop in to Terratech game?
NightbladeGreyswandir has created a really detailed and illustrated explanation, which can be found here (Thanks for that!): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1270697042

------------------------------------

Ein billiger Scout, bei dem es nicht schlimm ist, wenn er abgeschossen wird. Wie alle meine Techs, ist auch dieses auf einwandfreie Funktionalität und Steuerbarkeit ausgelegt. 145 mp/h voll kontrollierbar. Keine Energie, keine Waffen. Um abzuheben, einfach "W" + "Shift" gedrückt halten, bis es in der Luft ist. Während des Fluges behält es die Flughöhe fast von selbst. Eine bequeme Möglichkeit um sicher zu landen ist, einfach gar nichts mehr zu drücken. Es landet dann ganz sanft von selbst.

Damit ist es das perfekte Werkzeug, um die Challenge "Falling with Style" (500 m glide) im Spiel bquem zu meistern.

Vielleicht interessiert Dich ja aber auch der bislang effektivste Bomber, den ich entworfen habe: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1449728724

Oder vielleicht das schnellste Flugzeug das ich entworfen habe: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1450012263

Oder mein liebstes Tech: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1447823519

Vielleicht magst du dir ja auch noch die anderen kleinen Flugzeuge anschauen, die ich, inspiriert von anderen, für den Einsatz im Spiel umgestaltet habe:
My F22 Raptor XS: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1443236662
My Venture Spitfire https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1439537509
My Small Super Flight: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1442850045

Vielleicht gefällt dir aber auch die von mir selbst als Endergebnis der Baureihe "Small Airplanes" entworfene und für den Einsatz im Spiel perfektionierte "Hummel", in der ich alles integriert und kombiniert habe, was sich bei anderen Modellen als vorteilhaft erwiesen hat. Sie besteht nur aus 19 Bauteilen und ist somit eines der kleinsten und sogar das am perfektesten zu steuernde Flugzeug von all meinen Modellen: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1447666881

Wie man ein Tech vom Steam-Workshop in das eigene Spiel bekommt?

I tried it right away and find it very well implemented! 11 Components with radar. If the radar is omitted, the model even keeps the flight altitude constant on its own. 10 components, but better controllable than mine. Okay, you win! :D

Anyway, I tried out this little plane of yours. To be honest, it flies well and good once airborne, but I kept tumbling it forwards trying to launch, even from the Salt Flats.

This is my take on Lathrix's mini-plane, now that we have the Zero Propellers (and they have just been buffed to be twice as powerful!): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1453795432

Thank you very much for this informations! :)

Ah!... I'd totally forgotten about that, yeah. Nothing posted for the last month, by the looks of it. It's NightbladeGreyswandir's baby, so you're welcome to ask him for an invite.:sfsmile:

The main forum is where it's at, as far as I'm concerned. But there's an official Discord too (you can probably search up a link, but it's not properly advertised as yet.

You're not seriously telling me you don't know the groups you're a member of? Today, when I withdrew my application for membership, I saw that you are a member too. But all the better, because then there can only be so little going on that a membership would not be worthwhile anyway. :D

> I replicated your little plane

Disclaimer: I'm not Lathrix. ;-)

> Terratech Master Builder group

What is this? (And did you mean to post that message here...?)

In the uploaded version, mine is very well steerable even on the ground and behaves like a real airplane when taking off, and is even equipped with all the instruments it needs. So it's really regrettable that you don't seem to want me in the Terratech Master Builder group. That is why, after a week without a reply, I have now withdrawn my application for membership. But that's all right. Maybe someone sees me as a competitor. Then I'll just keep on fiddling by myself. ;)

The lamp, the radar and the altimeter could be dispensed with in my model if necessary, since they are only mounted for more comfortable use in the game and for better balance/controllability (which in my opinion belongs to "fully functional"). The second wheel is also only mounted for the above-mentioned and optical reasons. That could also be omitted. That would look like this: http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=d56903-1532614415.jpg Then it consists of just 10 parts, just like your plane, but mine flies, takes off from the ground without help and is still well steerable. ;)

So, I replicated your little plane exactly in the R&D test chamber. In the game version "Homerun" it can somehow fly without wheels. Not in the R&D test chamber or in the game. Even with the aid of a ramp not, because the propeller cannot rotate in front. If you then mount the wheels, as shown in the video, it is too heavy to be able to lift off the ground. This model doesn't fly with me. Not even if you replace the gyro with a venture rod for weight reasons. But it may be that something has changed in the physics of the game.

> And you really saw smaller airplanes, which are nevertheless well controllable?

Sure: https://youtu.be/SDps9x2QPK0


> Why don't you give it a try? :D

Will do when I remember while in game.:sfsmile:
