@StarTyson, I just updated it. Now everyone can detach the balloon whenever they want :D

how long till the ballon pops

Wow, this glider is so aewsome

i actually want to freind this guy imean this is ingenious

coool

the smoothest most controlable vehicle in the game.

I'm not sure. Use short taps on the up/down keys to hold a 45 degree angle as soon as you start dropping. That should get the glider moving forward.

What am i doing wrong it doesnt even glide it just drops...
I am clicking all the right buttons at the right times so whats going wrong?

welp, I found out how to increase its speed to the point where it becomes uncontrollable, so indefinite flying w/ this is entirely possible, and easy.

@terminusvitae, Sure go for it, that sounds awesome!
I'd like to see it. Maybe just put a link to mine as the original in your description?

... i weaponized it... :$ remarkably successfully, for my first ever anything built in besiege, lols... with ur permission, i'd like to consider uploading it (still not decided, tbh, but wanna know if u'd be ok, if i did... :P ); if u want, (and if there's a way) i can send it to u first, for approval... :P i haven't managed an actual height launch system, yet; the added weight is too heavy for anything capable of it to still fit in the bounding box; u can drop it from a (surprisingly low) height, tho, in simulation, and the thing is both a nightmare and a dream to fly... :P since when do gliders need brakes, to maintain speed control!?!? :P :D i do use two (optional 3) mods, for extra fun, but it'll still work(flight quality is untouched, is just ur emergency boost, and good guns, that're gone) without them; rocket flamethrower, unlimited cannon, and explosive cannonball. (note: multimod breaks it; dunno why: use the seperate rocket one.) anywho, lemme know if ur interested! :)

Middle click on any part of the glider to lock the camera to it.

when i press v the camera follows the ballons not the glider

o my god

mine is flying more than indefinitely and im not doing anything, also one of its front wings broke off along with the pitch control. Even so, awesome machine! :)

aha so thats why its a challange to keep it in the air :) btw i recommend using it on the new tornado level

The arrow keys control pitch and roll. The propellers don't move because they are the wings.
To stay in the air you need forward speed. I mostly use the down arrow in short bursts to keep the front from dropping too much.

i must be missing something, but i cant seem the make it fly. once high, i press v to detach balloons. i excpect you thern use the forwawrd key to fly but it doesnt work and the propellors dont move?

This is really fun to use :D

@GuitarMan0121 im glad it helped.

Do you even physics bro? 10/1 Better than any glider or plane I've ever made, and not even half as complex.

Gewd I forgot about locking on.. sorry im like a noob :'

@Sir Cheeso, I tried yout strut idea and it actually made it fly better! it seems more balanced now. I've updated the Workshop file. Thanks!

Well I want to keep it inside the bounding box, but just middle click on the glider while it's floating up to lock the camera on it.

Nice work but I suggest you take off the balloons and put it high up because the ballooons mess up your camera

as i said amazing but you could slightly improve it by adding one strut from the back rudder to the main block and deleting the balloons you can just translate it to the hight you want and without the strut the rudder can break off easily

amazing

nice work but i had prom taking off XD

holy cow this is a really good glider man!

Unfortunately I can't fix that from my end.
Focus the camera on the glider by clicking the scroll wheel on it.

When I press V the camera goes up with the balloons

It's kinda hard to explain.
I had to place blocks then wheels in a certain order to get the gears to face each other.

This is incredible. How did you make it?

One I will most likely fail, but I will have fun failing.

This is a really cool challenge!
