hi. could any ccp staff please help me? i would like to build a radio controlled model eve ship the only ship i can think of that has any possibility of aeroplane like flight is the caldari shuttle. if ccp doesnt mind i would like to try and build a radio controlled caldari shuttle. if u dont mind would there be any chance of getting some technical plans of this ship. if i am sucessful i would be more than happy to come to the fanfest and give some demo flights. thanks, ortaga.

i would love to but that woul have to be built around a heli, but i think the rotor and tail blades might spoil the appearance. a good shape for a heli though.

infact. ccp. the domi plans would be good, because u would get good bs flight chariteristics with a heli

ever thought of something like a zeppelin like the "hindenburg" ... well...hopefully with a better landing..
Domi or Apocalypse would be great for that, because of the bigger upper shipform
A realy cool idea to build an RC eve ship..never thought of that

I'm thinking you could probably do an RC model of a Claw or Stilletto. The wing surface may be a little bit small, so you'd probably have to grossly over power it, maybe a puller motor on the front/bottom and a pusher on the back?
a couple brushless electric motors would probably do, with a Lithium Ion battery pack just below the wings.

the domi wopuld be unbalanced for a blimp it you would have to add to much weight to make it float like a dominix to allow it to still well float

Are any of the models of any of the ships in the game of eve capable, physically, of flight?

I believe there are actually mineratue jet engines that you could use instead.

how about the amarrian shuttle? it has a near lifting body shape, in fact all of the shuttles are candidates, you would need to have the entire surface of wing moving to get enough control,
the npc sansha frig (not succubus) is very helicopter shaped, even has the tail boom

I reckon the tempest might fly if you turned it sideways... and the tristan would make a good kite ;)
If your thinking of helicopter, i'd go for the shuttles, since they all seem to have pretty even weight distribution... no crazy bits hanging off to unbalance them. For a blimp... surely the maller has to be a candidate with the engines in those lil pods on the sides.
If your going to build something around a mini-jet engine PLEASE make a phoon with the jet in the middle. Even if you have to add wings to the back end for control, the comical effect if worth it.

Hmmmm. I might have to make a model rocket out of the geddon. It has some potential.

Kestrel or Condor could work, though the kestrel would need some internal balancing it is basically an aerofoil anyway. The condor (crow/raptor whatever) would work nicely but of course need to be rotated so as to provide symmetrical wings.

Also, thinking about it, the gallante shuttle could work...if you plexiglassed the space between the wings to make it one solid wing. Omg that would be cool ---------------------------

nice man, how about using a blimp type thing with ducted engines.

the caldari shuttle has an inverted dihedral angle, doesn't make for stable flight characteristics...
It's also got no tail wings or canard, which is important for a monoplane design. The only way it would fly is with a substantial redesign... These ships are flying in space where aerodynamics don't matter.
You might consider a large helium filled model, having ducted fan thrusters for forward movement and steering. This might work if it were light enough and you could make it airtight. A Dominix would be perfect for this if you could balance it correctly.

your right about the caldari shuttle but u could make small changes to it by making a slightly larger rudder and a small elivator, and u could give the wings a very slight diehedral and u would hardly se any difference. the domi would be ideal to mount on my heli, i could mould a carbon fiber canopy over a shaped peice of wood and put very small set of skids on. i think the domi would be great because with heli controls u could make it fly like a bs.
