Big Plane Sinking

[jpconfino]

I tried editing the BLT Park Flyer and increasing the scale to 10. While it is pretty funny to see the larger-than-full-scale model in the air, on the ground it appears to "sink" into the terrain about 1/2 the height of the plane. This effect happens with every plane I try. While this bug is no big deal, I thought I'd mention it.

Did you just increase the scale by a factor of 10, or did you modify each and every parameter?

I enlarged the Cap 232 ( visual scale only ), and I had the same problem. After changing every parameters ( wingspan, chord, fuse lenght, height etc. ) to match the visual scale, then the plane appeared to be sitting normally on the runway.

Ahhh... That sounds like the trick.

Thanks,

I'm pretty sure this is in the FAQ, but you can lengthen the landing gear.
