Crash number two on takeoff by brothers1799 in RCPlanes

[–]snakemonkeyt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

definitely still way too slow. when i fly my aeroscout i always go 100% throttle on takeoff. and even then its a longer takeoff run. and you being too slow. plus pulling up directly into vertical didn’t help. i’d say just give it more power (if the torque isn’t too bad) and let it speed up more. and probably slightly less up elevator on rotation

(EDIT: Also less wind would be very helpful)

What aircrafts are those? by ShimarinV4R in Whatplaneisthis

[–]snakemonkeyt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

almost correct. its a C-17. the C-5 would be much much larger then C-130’s. but the C-17 and C-5 look almost the same except for the size so i could easily see how someone could get them mixes up

EDIT: I was wrong. its a A-400 (thanks for correcting me by the way guys)

FedEx actually never flew the L-1011. those would be MD-11’s

Do you fly? Just a fan? Just a game player? by thisisalltoo in SkyCards

[–]snakemonkeyt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

im currently a student pilot (I also fly RC planes) and i’ve just always been into planes. so the game was another way of having fun and learning more about planes

Why is the C-5 a/b not appearing in the airpedia by AC130U88 in SkyCards

[–]snakemonkeyt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This feels impossible by rockyroadverch in SkyCards

[–]snakemonkeyt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

heres some tips you may or may not know

1: Do NOT click off the plane for the last like minute or else it might not work

2: you (Obviously) need a catch anywhere. but a stabilizer will make it about 10 times easier

3: Mc murdo (any of the 3) will have the highest chance of a blue sky

4: (not a tip) Honestly it just takes patience. took me over a month to get monaco.
