freebird

After my Testing running at max Throttle for more than 2-3 min or 250 KM in game the engine explodes but is still flyable for 10 more min then youre dead

nice

this super 6 thing we be intresting lets see how far i can push modualer engines

nice trick using pipes for less drag :)

Thanks for the comments
Feedback is always welcome, especially negative ones.

I like how you put exhaust on wingtips

@Thales Thank you for the advice.

I used to always use the Fokker Alaskan for most of my flying, I'm using this all the time now.

@Captain Jack Sparrow,
Hard to say without testing.

@BasicallyIPlayGames,
Thanks. Low-drag pipes and control fins are the key to reach higher speed in this example as well as low mass and powerful engine. Jets have much greater thrust and usually can get a lot faster with increased mass. But thrust is first thing which needs to be increased, then weight.

liked the use of the exhaust, great plane, wish my jets were as fast as that.

i mean, i might put a weight on the back to stop it dipping downward quite so fast, but flies fine with a couple MGs just jammed under the wing

how much centre of mass movement can i get away with?

Hey, i must ask how did you measure the horsepower of your engine? is there a rig you used.

@Thales,

Thanks! I quickly figured that out!

yo craced

centre of mass? i couldn't even find somewhere to mount guns, let alone balance that mess

Legend! There was one file that was corrupted. Now it works! I am looking forward to using your aircraft, it looks super awesome. Thanks for the suggestion to check integrity.

@Knooob,
Same. I don't know what is the problem. Maybe verifying your game integrity in Steam helps?

My version is v1.4.11

Your game version?

It says I am missing a lot of the modular parts, am I missing some update or DLC?

@Captain Jack Sparrow,
You can add weapons on it but make sure center of mass stays in same place.

I'm currently busy with updating my WW1 warplanes: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2637603439

feel free to shoot me for suggesting this, but can we have a warplane version?

@paper pancake boy,
With mouse control or keyboard?
It's better to control with mouse at higher speeds.

pretty cool plane, its a bit hard to fly at full speed and the stabilizer glitched out otherwise i give it a solid 9/10

CRAZY.... i struggle for any of my planes to touch 300 knots and you are well over 400....

@Hank_Hill,
Starter button is 6.
There's a bug with hotkey list, developers need to fix it. Because of the bug hotkey numbers show +1 values.

How do I start it. It says the button is unassigned?

very nice. thank you for this knowledge.

@phishercat,
Yes, it's very low drag because skeleton is made of pipes instead of blocks. Control fins are also low drag components compared to blocky wing components.

We need a Twin engined version.

how so fucking fast. im gonna assume low drag but that cant be it.

Update:
- Fixed microcontroller having less or no drag due to not connected to main body.
- Added pipes to connect all control fins for better flight control.
- As a result drag and mass are increased and top speed is now 770 KPH, down from 845 KPH.

How what

how tho
