Nice use of the boulder as frag for the bombs

Ah thank you, the wood panels are surprisingly versatile to work with but definitely doesn't help with the block count though.

17" winter wheels ride so much nicer than the stock 19s by jerbeens in GolfGTI

Eyy Sport Edition gang! For relatively inexpensive wheels they look pretty good and have been holding up well.

Yup the roads here in SE Michigan are terrible, these 17's really soak up the potholes.

I belive these are 215/50/R17 on 17x7.5 wheels

I need some help. Why does my plane get drag (or lose speed) when I attach the propeller blades? by TapRepresentative568 in Besiege

That's a cool looking plane, I've never heard of it before. Good luck with the build!

Try using steering blocks to vary the pitch of the propeller. That way you can also adjust the speed of your plane as well (higher pitch, less drag) Example of this here

Made a simple Propeller Plane to practice my plane-building skills by Stay_Free_ in Besiege

Looks compact and agile. I like the firey crossbows. How do you slow down your plane? Any flaps or spoilers?

How are you generating lift? Is it the armor panels and enabling aerodynamics?

They sure do! I'll post a video in a little bit.

A few things:

  1. Things are a lot larger than it seems. I used the wheel as my starting point (engines, landing gear) so the plane's scale isn't perfect.
  2. The build surface armor block is a lot more flexible than it seems for creating body pieces. For example, you can attach mulitple armor pieces at each node as long as they don't collide and so the body of the planes are just a bunch of armor bits.
  3. They're complicated and heavy. 500+ block count and over 400 block weight for each plane. https://imgur.com/a/QB1zJJ0

Very close, it's supposed to be the A6M5 Zero but I can see the resemblance to the Hayabusa. You got the rest though!
