    I was wondering if I or someone else should create a r/c plane of some sort. It would be my first mod but I would try to make it. If someone else wan't's to do this there is no need to credit me. honestly.

    BeamNG would handle it terribly, the RC car mod that was made had to have the cars weighing hundreds of pounds each just for Jbeam stability and they still shook a bit. The aerodynamics model is as simple as you'd expect and there is no real way to have the wings give enough lift to get the plane into the air without them also having a lot of drag and to compensate for that drag and weight you'd need a lot more power. In the end you'd at best probably end up with something that weighs over 500lbs, has more drag than a bus, and shakes so much it could be mistaken for an ornithopter.

    Okay, perhaps beam would be able to handle a simple large RC plane, I still have my doubts about it being able to have a reasonable weight.
