So use this version, it should work better since it's made for the new aerodynamics in 1.3 and 1.4. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2922010142
All my planes that work in 1.3 and 1.4 are marked with 1.3

yes

Hi akel. I'm guessing you're using version 1.4 of the game? This version of the plane was made for version 1.2 of the game, so maybe try the right version of the plane before making sad comments like this? Just a thought.

this plane flies like if a 6 year old designed it

do you know how to make a plane right?

The floats could go a lot farther back with the extra props so that's something. :)

Bi-plane Float Bomber published. :)

Seems to be working with added props on the floats to help with the speed in water. The floats need to be unrealistically far ibn front but for a fantasy plane like mine that's ok. Will probably be tricky to make real plane replicas without resorting to "cheats" like thrusters though.
Will release my floting bi-plane soon.

Nice

Yeah I just tested putting floats on my bi-plane and just as I thought the drag from the water and a prop high up off the center line makes it just tip forward when the engine starts. I'll fiddle a bit with it and see what I can do.

It still takes off. But it need thrusters to get out of the water.

It's cool that there's water in the game, but sadly the developer uses the same system for water and air and it just doesn't work well for both, so I hope he makes separate fluid dynamics for eater and air or one or the other will probably always be wonky.
That's a shame with the float plane. I'm feeling that would be a problem with any type of float plane since the drag from the water combined with a prop several meters off the surface will combine to drag the nose down? Sadly there's a lot of work that needs to be done with the fluid dynamics and there's just one developer so if changes will come eventually it'll probably take quite some time. 😕

I found a plane that works with me. There's a floatplane version, and if you put floatbricks on it, it doesn't takeoff. You need thrusters. It tilts to the front. It doesn't fly like it used to. Brick Rigs broke aero/hydrodynamics. Then again, hydrodynamics are new.

Yes that's sadly true. In the last version it was at possible to counter some of the weird stuff somewhat but in this new version things just seem to happen at random with aerodynamics and flight characteristics and one second you roll like a spinning top, the next not at all, one second you have too much lift, the next not enough.
Oh well hopefully the dev makes some changes soon or planes will be rather dead in the game.

BR's aerodynamics, let alone physics, have always been weird in one way or another, but now it's worse than it's ever been before.

Smaller planes fly like RC model planes on crack and larger planes lumber around like brick trying to fly. There's no consistency and lift and flap efficiency change so much depnding on speed and angle of attack and loadout what have you that it's impossible to trim the plane properly. I've tried but I'm too stupid to make it work well. 🤷‍♂️

I'm mainly talking about bigger planes. Smaller aircraft with shorter wingspans seem to work ok, albeit still with some very random things happening. I'm just a bit disappointed with the aerodynamics as they are and it feels a lot less fun for me building planes for the game when flying clearly isn't important to the dev I guess and things can just get really changed and bad with every update.I just lost the spark with this latest update. :/

I'm in the latest verion 1.2 and they fly but the mechanincs are quite random and they roll one way sloooooowly and the other way 10 times faster and the lift is extremely different at slower speeds to faster and a shedload of other weird behaviour. You can't even roll a plane without it losing all airspeed and it'll only roll a quarter roll before it just goes downwards sideways and there's nothing that can be done about it. In the last version at least some of the flaws could be dealt with but this system is completely broken as is. I just don't feel like spending dozens of hours building stuff that don't work properly or if I have to make WW2 bombers fly 800 kph just so they can turn without falling from the sky,
Sorry. :/

Cause things fly fine in experimental (for me, at least)

You in expirimental or normal?

alr.

I'm afraid I won't be making any more planes while the aerodynamics in the game are so broken. I just can't get planes to fly even remotely well and I don't feel like spending20-40 hours making something that just doesn't work. Sorry.
It's a cool plane though and I'll put it on the list if the aerodynamics are ever fixed. :)

Can you make a Grumman J2F Duck? It's not to well known.

Feel free to check out my new drone with missiles though. It too flies like crap and veeeery randomly but it shoots missiles. :D

Well if you want to drive it around as a boat... JK, but I don't think I have the energy to spend on building such a complex aircraft just for it to not be able to fly even decently TBH. But I can put it on my list. Who knows I might go crazy enough to try it. :)

hey um until the games aerodynamics start working again is it possible for you to make a PBY catalina

My2Scents - Thank you.
The thing is I've spent 30+ hours just trying to get my Superfortresss and my Dauntless to fly at least decently(airbrakes on the Dauntless are not even possible to use/make anymore) but nothing helps. Sadly the game engine is currently broken for planes like mine so there's nothing I can do until the developer fixes the aerodynamics (or reverts back to the old system). :(

Foxyotp - see my post below, in order to make water work the update has ruined fluid dynamics/aerodynamics to the point that I can't get my WW2 planes to fly even a little well, so if the aerodynamics are not fixed I will sadly not spend time building planes that I just can't make fly properly. If/when the aerodynamics are reset or at least fixed somehow the Hellcat is on my list of planes to build, but as the game is now there's no point. Sorry.

Well I hope you can fix the issue, but I'll wait as long as I can just to have these fixed. Thank you for these amazing planes and your time.

Ty mean green, when the update first came out I immediately tried your planes and was disappointed they changed aerodynamics again,

will you ever make a F6F hellcat?

Terra_Blade sadly just adding floats don'r work, the whole thing needs to be re-worked to function, and even the water works weird in my limited experience. Sadly this game as it is now is dead to me for building and trying to fix stuff, it's just broken in the features that I use and I'm not going to spend dozens or even hundreds of hours tweaking and fixing stuff just for them to work slightly less bad. Sorry. 😕

LEFTY_GAMING1 As I've written elsewhere I'm not building any new planes while the current aerodynamics are in the game, they just don't work as they should, and if anything I'll spend time on trying to get my old planes flying decently. If at all possible, which right now seems not very probable. This update has ruined (slow and especially larger) planes. But hey boats!

and a hs-123 A-1

I have been busy trying to get my planes to fly even close to the way they did in the previous version but no success so far. This update sucks for planes. I'm a bit off this game right now TBH: 1000+ hours of building planes that flew quite well but behave like shite now just so water works.
When(/if) I have the time and energy I'll add floats to the torpedoes. Feel free to try yourself for now as long as you don't upload the plane publically.

make the he 51 from war thunder

hey um just saying you might want to add float bricks to the torpedoes because all they do is sink

Sadly I'm not the only plane-builder that doesn't like the update so it's not just my ineptitude that's the problem. Unfortunately it seems the game physiscs for planes have been utterly broken to make water work. I hope there'll be a patch some day that'll make both work, but I doubt it. 😕

its k

Sorry for being so negative but this update reslly destroyed (my) planes and I see no way to fix them bc nothing I've tried so far works. The new fluid dynamics system seems to be all about boats and ships an no f*cks were given about slower planes. Jets still work ok-ish because they have the speed needed but flying below 300kph is trash.

B-25 is on my list, but if the aerodynamics in the gane are not fixed I probably won't build any more planes because it's impossible, at least for me, to get them to fly well. I've spent 12+ hours tweaking my superfortress so far and it still flies rather poorly, and it can't roll past a quarter roll because then it just goes down sideways. The update is a disaster for especially larger slower planes and right now I feel like the game as far as building WW2 planes is dead.

i just want you to build a B-25 if that ok

You can make a request but I'm not sure I'll build any more planes at all if the new fluid dynamics don't get fixed because they fly like shite. 🙄

can i give a request

Sadly building new planes will have to wait until I've fixed all my old ones.

Apparently 1.2.2 is now out without any info about it except a brief mention by the creator in Discord. All my planes need to be recalibrated to fly properly since they now fly more like RC planes than real actual size planes with the new aerodynamics in the game. I will try to fix this ASAP and mark each plane (and other creations) that is 1.2.2 ready in their description. It will take quite a while to go through all of them though. 🙄

Overhauled my old B-24 Liberator since I needed to bug fix it a bit. All new wings back and front, new engines and propellers and a slightly smoother undersaide near the tail. Have fun. :)

Glad you like it memers. :)

omg thanks
