Whack AL's Flying Carrier Build Challenge Template
Challenge Introduction
Welcome, This is a building template used to build your own aircraft for my Flying Carrier! This template features the dimensional box that the plane must fit in, as well as some components to attach your plane to assist with the docking process.
There are two separate options for this challenge! You can do a wing mount (on the yellow hardpoint), or you can do roof mount. The carrier will feature 4 wing hard points and 1 roof mount. I recommend that the roof mount is used for larger planes like cargo, bombers, passenger (crew change), ect. The hard points are best suited for recon planes, and fighters.
Folding the Arm
You can fold the arm with a throttle lever on the red outline. You can also fold the arm using channel 6 composite through the connector. In order to use channel 6, use a toggle boolean output on channel 6 to the connector.
This is great, because you can use a seat easily on button 6, or you can add a button onto an existing instrument panel.
Rules
Keep the plane within the size limits
XML is allowed
Please avoid OP glitches
Inf Fuel and Electric will be OFF for testing
Workshop only submissions
No Mods
Not every submission will make it into the video.
Specifications
Each hardpoint will have either a physics sensor you can pick up on whatever channel you choose, or they will have a laser beacon on a specified channel. I would recommend you focus on making the plane dock easy! Add a mechanical or logical solution, it is hard to do with skill alone, but not impossible.
No infinite fuel or electricity.
Please note you do not need to build a plane, anything can go on either the hardpoint mounts or the roof.
The plane will need to fit in the following dimensions for the hardpoint mount.
Width : 11.25M
Height : 4.50M
Length : 18.50M
Generally speaking you will get into the cockpit from the hard point.
The roof mount does not have size constraints. Please do keep in mind engine placement on my plane...
The roof mount rails are the same width as a standard container!
The mother ship cruises at speeds from 100 Knots to 270 knots
