update please :biggrin.gif:
the new flat world would be so good for RC flying practice!
Yeah. i updated to 1.1, created a flatland world, then went back to 1.0 wit the mod and it's AWESOME!!!!! :biggrin.gif:
BTW, didja try my way to activate "Coming Soon!" plane?
When the plane/heli flies a certain distance away from the player, it freezes its position and spazzes out. If the player goes into the area, the chopper/plane resumes normal operation.
Ok. Version 1.2.1 should be somewhat compatible. Be aware it is NOT working 100% with the new version of Minecraft. I don't have the time at this stage to fix all the issues. I do recommend that v1.2.1 to be played on v1.0.0 of Minecraft. With the "updated" version of this mod, the new flight dynamics for the rc plane is included. But before you all get too excited, the downside is that it's only about 50% complete. There are some major issues with calculating the angle of attack of the wings.
Have fun doing rolls, barrel rolls, loops, the immelmann, the reverse immelmann, the cuban eight, the half cuban eight, the reverse half cuban eight, inverted flight, inverted loop, etc.

hmm. How far exactly? It might be a problem with Minecraft itself.
can you make the camera follow the plan or even have guns so that you could mow down those annoying creepers or do a recon at night without the risk of getting killed?
Awesomest Mod EVER! My 2nd Fave mod! Diamods for u!
Anyways, info: My twin brother is really good at the plane, but blew our house up with the heli.
I flew a heli for 29 minutes before blowing up a mooshroom. but i SUCK at the plane.
Coincidence?
never happened to me, must be something with your mc.
I have RailCraft, BuildCraft, Equivalent Exchange, TooManyItems, Sound Mod Enabler, and Tomes, not to mention Redpower Core, Wiring, Logic and Lighting. And oh ComputerCraft too. I'm running on V1.0.0 btw.
Just want to give you all a quick update on what to expect in the coming days. I'm hoping to get version 1.2.5 out by the end of this week. Hopefully, if all goes well I can start working on an rc boat by next week.

I'll try to look into it. I never had that problem before.

You do know that post was AGES ago?
cant really tell how old a post is from the post itself.
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
SKREW FLAN!!!! Do yourself a favor, just go find Skerp.
Version 1.2.1
Mainly contains fixes.
WARNING!! The limit of one plane/heli per world has been temporarily removed. DO NOT spawn more than one plane/heli into your world because it messes things up. If you do spawn more than one plane/heli, simply destroy them all before you spawn in a new one. That should fix any problems.
Version 1.2
Version 1.1.5
Version 1.0
I'm currently developing a rc mod. The flight dynamics are very basic and are far from the real thing. Hopefully over time I'll be able to use more advance aerodynamics in calculating the forced of thrust, lift drag and weight. I'm also hoping to include the effects of density changes (decreases with height) on the flight dynamics.
At the mod's current state you can't do a loop in the rc plane. In the coming days I should be able to complete a bunch of things on the to do list.
Please let me know what you guys think and give me some ideas on what to add to this mod.
Well, I've decided to release a very unfinish/unpolished version of this mod. There are sill a bunch of feature that needs to be added.
Installation
1) Download and install Modloader.
2) Download and install AudioMod.
3) Delete META-INF
4) Download RcPlaneMod.rar (Links below).
5) Open RCMod.zip and put the "RCMod" folder and .class files inside your minecraft.jar.
6) Put the "mod" folder inside your resources folder.
7) Winning...
NOTE! If you installed v1.1.6 before, you have to delete all the files of this mod BEFORE installing v1.2. Do not delete the di.class file. You'll have to replace it with a default di.class file or a di.class file from what ever mod you want to use. Due to the change in file names, v1.2 will not overwrite v1.1.6 and will cause problems. Preferably, get a clean minecraft.jar file and re-install all the mods you used before and then install this one, v1.2.
Files from v1.1.6:
RCM_RenderRcPlane.class
RCM_ModelRcPlane.class
RCM_ItemRcPlaneRemoteControl.class
RCM_ItemRcPlane.class
RCM_EntityRcPlane.class
mod_RcPlane.class
di.class
Crafting
To craft the rc plane or heli and the remote control you'll need:
-Diamonds
-Iron
-Redstone
-And wooden planks
-Sticks
You can start off by crafting the receiver:
Next you can craft the electric motor:
Now its time to craft the remote control:
The rc plane:
And lastly the rc heli
WARNING
DO NOT FLY NEAR YOUR HOUSE! It will most likely be that you'll destroy it and I'm NOT going to take any responsibility for it.
You can only have one plane in a world.
Also be aware that you can not roll through 360 degrees or do a loop.
NOTE. There are known issues. The Chase Cam can cause performance issues and the rc plane will go crazy when trying to do loops.
Besides that have fun.
Instructions
Once you have crafted to remote control and rc plane, you can place the rc plane on the ground by right clicking on the mouse while the rc plane is in your hand. After that you need to select the remote control and right click. You'll hear a beeping sound playing (If you installed audiomod correctly). This indicates that the remote control is active and that you can start flying.
Controls are as follow:
"p" will retrieve the plane for you and will place it where you put it the first time.
"o" Will give you thrust. More thrust means you'll go faster and get more lift.
"k" Yaws the plane to the left.
";" Yaws the plane to the right.
"k" and ";" is only needed when you want to steer on the ground.
"Down arrow key" This will make the plane pitch up. ( Also helps to gain more lift)
"Up arrow key" This will make the plane pitch down. ( Helps to reduce the lift)
"Left arrow key" Rolls the plane to the left.
"Right arrow key" Rolls the plane to the right.
The "left and right arrow keys" are used to "steer" the plane in the air.
To change to the chase cam, simply right click on the rc plane or heli and you'll have a 3rd person view of it. You can press "F5" and the cam will cycle through different views. To go back to your character just de-activate the remote control by right clicking.

...no lol
Lets just say I prefer to write my own rc car from scratch.
Try the rc plane with the new flight dynamics and let me know if you get the same problem.
hmm. How far exactly? It might be a problem with Minecraft itself.
Maybe...I haven't calculated, but maybe around 24+ blocks? OR outside the render distance, its quite far. I play on FAR render distance.
it's a complete mod, but it can be better. not a work in progress.
Anyways, info: My twin brother is really good at the plane, but blew our house up with the heli.
I flew a heli for 29 minutes before blowing up a mooshroom. but i SUCK at the plane.

Try flying out an insane distance. On 1.0.0.
