Nice - good update to one of my favorite sea planes.
Thales  [author] 5 Feb, 2024 @ 8:59am 
Update 5 Feb 2024;

- Interior revamp: non-electric doors, streamlined walls, lots of inventory equipments, toilet
- Physics flooder optimizations
- Reduced number of sub-bodies for physics optimization
- Anchor update with newer winch
- Engine revamp for more realistic look
- Hull and tail revamp which fixed gap in body issue
- Fixed nose-diving issue by fast acceleration, by using new (light) rotors as propellers
- Improved flight controls; pitch, roll and waypoint hold
- Added gas relief valves to fuel tanks, passenger compartments and cockpit to prevent suffocating
- Updated some of the button/switch labels
- Added rope anchors for docking
- Used SRB fuel exploit (-1000 mass) to lighten it up for preventing flooding through doors by sitting low on water due to removal of pivots and increased weight.
- Thumbnail and 3d model update in Sketcfab

TheBigSad,
Yes, wind speed in Stormworks can reach 40 m/s which is more than enough for airplanes with large wings to fly.

In full wind it hovers mid air pointing in the wind, I found this out trying to land and just it not going down even at 0 throttle lol.

Absolutely love this plane, I added more equipment.. and now its a full blown Rescue Float Plane. Thank you so much for giving me a ton of fun!!

Thanks for comments

@Akaya.Kaito,
It's quite old and I have some other old airplanes too. I should start updating them soon or later but making new ones are usually more enjoyable.
Kaitos 25 Jan, 2022 @ 4:18pm 
really nice plane. but can you add some tools like first aid kits or a welder? The lavatory might be a good place for that

this is my favorite plane on the workshop its just so awesome!!
Squadward Tacticals 2 Feb, 2021 @ 7:56am 
This is actually my favorite career mode vehicle. It has Simple controls, absurd engine power, easy water landing, and tight handling in the air. also the autopilot works better than most planes.
Legnani 9 Jan, 2021 @ 10:10am 
i downloaded this a while ago but it still one of my favorite planes. Handles well and the interior is really well designed
Thales  [author] 5 Jan, 2021 @ 1:23am 
Increase the throttle slowly as it speeds up. Don't increase throttle instantly.
YeeoleSwsh 4 Jan, 2021 @ 7:25pm 
After Throttling up it nose dives into the water killing the engines, I believe i did the start up correctly.
faggotobliterator1002 8 Oct, 2020 @ 4:21am 
also, uuse symetry
faggotobliterator1002 8 Oct, 2020 @ 4:21am 
haha its really hard... worth it one your done!

In Youtube, search for MrNJersey's "Stormworks Workbench Basic's (Tips & Tricks)" video.
Anzio 26 Jul, 2020 @ 1:49pm 
How do you use the selection grid? Any tips or tricks i should use?
Thales  [author] 25 Jul, 2020 @ 3:09pm 
Yes, it can be easy to accidentally erase something vital and then impossible to fix that error.
Anzio 25 Jul, 2020 @ 3:04pm 
lmao just found out building in the workshop is harder than beating darksouls.
Anzio 25 Jul, 2020 @ 2:39pm 
Im going to try to combine the two hulls and put them in the middle and see what happens.
Thales  [author] 19 Jun, 2020 @ 7:07am 
Update: I removed the gyros because they are 10 mass each now instead of 1 mass before. Also I added disposable wheels to this version and removed the other versions that are unnecessary now.

How do you make/get all of these custom blocks in your creations?
AlfaNero 29 Apr, 2020 @ 7:16am 
ok thank you!
Thales  [author] 29 Apr, 2020 @ 5:19am 
@federicoparea,
They're in-game stats, but since it's 1:1 scale, dimensions are also real life stats.
AlfaNero 29 Apr, 2020 @ 3:37am 
just curious, are the plane stats in the description the real life stats or the in-game stats?
AlfaNero 26 Apr, 2020 @ 9:47am 
it looks absolutely gorgeous! also works really well. I'm having so many problems trying to make seaplanes float and not flipping during takeoff.
Luckinator 9 Apr, 2020 @ 12:15pm 
@Thales,
Danke
Thales  [author] 9 Apr, 2020 @ 5:42am 
@Luckinator,
You're lucky
Luckinator 9 Apr, 2020 @ 4:25am 
Can u build as ur next plane the Ju 52 pls I could buid it my self but it would look crapy
Talyllyn No.1 31 Mar, 2020 @ 7:30am 
Well a thanks to him too
Thales  [author] 31 Mar, 2020 @ 7:22am 
I should mention that disposable wheels was TheAlaskan's idea.
Talyllyn No.1 31 Mar, 2020 @ 7:15am 
Thank you!

Hi Thale, I really love this plane, extremely elegant and enjoyable to drive. However I wanted if it would be possible to give this hidden landing gear? (I understand it would not be accurate to the real thing) I understand this is a seaplane, and I understand that there are Workbench mods to allow this to spawn properly, but modifying workbenches tends to break Multiplayer islands.

The only workbenches i've found in multiplayer which can handle this plane are inland hangars, that's why I wanted to ask if hidden landing gear is possible?, just so people who wish to use this in multiplayer have a way to get the plane out of the hangar without breaking their Multiplayer islands by messing with the XML Files. If this is not possible I completely understand.

@Gordon Ramsay,
Press N then add mission if you subscribed it.
proslyde 29 Mar, 2020 @ 4:50am 
Where do I spawn it and how do spawn it in a mission or something
Thales  [author] 26 Mar, 2020 @ 2:17am 
See SPAWN METHODs in the description above.
Rman555 25 Mar, 2020 @ 8:39pm

Hello! Can you explain me how do you change the shape of blocks in your crafts?
robigan 25 Mar, 2020 @ 2:58am 
This is the most stable plane ever too
Anzio 24 Mar, 2020 @ 3:30pm 
This looks like something out of Porco Rosso and I love it.
good job.
The toaster 24 Mar, 2020 @ 10:16am
