Damn bro, your steering system is sick, pretty cool, it give me ideias, i'm thinking about a bigger one with storage system, landing engines and 4 sided movement based on another airship that i've seen before. Your steering system may be useful for another airship that i'm thinking about, keep up the good work. New sub here. o/
i put small thrusters on the bottom of my airship and got the weight to where it slowly falls when not under power. so when i go forward it makes the airship go up. the key is falling slowly and putting tires underneath to keep from breaking anything. my build is alittle bigger but it very controllable.
Thanks bro appreciate you! When I’m in sandbox I like putting the max amount of thrusters on ships to see what the thing can do 😂 sadly the ships bug when you going to fast and you could fly off 😪
@@DirtBagD0m yea I saw that.....I changed it up a bit from yours and added some plank fences all the way around the pad. As well, I've instead of using 2 sets of thrusters, 1 on each side, I've made a steering column that makes you spin 360 clockwise or counter clockwise depending on how you set the 2 thrusters.....and bc the pads are set to a certain height you can also somewhat push against them the make light adjustments to you craft......just don't try and do it while a thruster is on, the inertia will keep you from pushing that thruster block. When I've got it set all the way I will make a vid showing what you did and the adjustments I've made to help with weight balance and being able to micro adjust the direction you are going in
@@DirtBagD0m yo, just got done with the edits, made sure to put your name in big bold ass letters on the screen as well. Feel free to add to it when you see it, and make it a sky base. I should have it up in about 30 minutes
Do you have any issues with the side thrusters flying off?? Every vehicle i’ve built through tutorials some part of it ends up glitching and flying off
This worked for a bit but as soon as I added foundations to land the thrusters and switches broke, seems to be a common problem, especially when re loading to get my grapple back😅😅
I found the best way to build flying ships and I even learned to build an elevator so you can get to your flying ship faster without cracking 90s constantly
Does this survive relogging in? Everytime I build a ship and soon I'll build yours with your guide here Either respawns or floats away to oblivion 💀🤣 Amazing work it looks amazing
That’s crazy 😂 my ships have bugged out on me when I reload right after building it or if I logged out on it and alot of the time the game bugs if your moving to fast which is most of the time and you glitch backwards and could fall off the ship
My problem is that I refuse to go to sandbox mode to build one I rather suffer through trial and error on survival having to get more silk and blast powder every time lmao
unfortunately it bugged out and the steering switches disappeared. when i logged back in one of the front panels was missing completely and the thrusters missing off the other
@@DirtBagD0m I thought it might be a visual bug so I weighed it down, walked away to see it that would reset it, no luck, so I logged off and back on but not on it. And one whole panel was missing as well as thrusters and switches. I didn't know what to do. I have to stop trying these in my survival world
A+ for originality same concept different execution from all the ones I’ve tried. They all big out and lose steering eventually on me and best ones for me are ones where I can replace steering without completely rebuilding. Have any issues with it yet? They all seem to last a little while before an engine pops out. Even my most reliable setup loaded in one day and was fazed into the ground
Mine hasn’t popped out on me unless I crashed it or ran through a bunch of trees but there’s a bug idk if it’s with every ship but it seems like it but you glitch backwards and could fall off your ship
How well (or badly) does it hold up in survival? I have issues with things breaking (and not getting materials back), as well as getting pushed off of the airship and constantly having to build a massive staircase in order to get back on. Also, do the thrusters ever break? Cheers. EDIT: I really like this design, by the way. Thanks for sharing it.
Thanks bro! This ship has only broke on me when I’ve crashed it but I have been pushed off the back but unfortunately I think this is happening with all ships I’m not 100% sure tho
@@DirtBagD0m Thanks for the info. I wonder if there is some way to mitigate the push-back, such as having multiple layers between you and the dynamic/thruster pieces? Surely, there must be some way to get around this issue.
@@DirtBagD0m I considered the possibility that it might have something to do with the dynamic piece, but even building with regular pieces seem to have this problem (I think?). When I have more time, maybe I will try to build something with a sub-floor system that might be able to 'catch' me if I get pushed off. Could also be how the 'movable' pieces are encased (such as how many layers are holding them down and how much additional room they have to move around). Ultimately, though, I suspect that you are right about the thrusters. I also believe that the problem worsens when there is lag, especially when other players are in your world. My hope is that they create some way for players to 'lock' themselves onto the vehicle, sort of how it is done in regular fortnite. This would hold them to the vehicle, even when thrusters are going. Ideally, they would give us the option to have blueprint build for things like land/air/water vehicles, such as a frame that we can add things to. Then, anything that gets added to that frame becomes a part of the vehicle (as a whole), where there is a big health bar (similar to regular fortnite, where cars have health), so that even if we bang it up, it won't break unless the health gets all the way to zero. With this model, they could include blow-torches as a way to repair the vehicle's health. By having blueprint frames, they could automatically come with steering wheels and be drive-able just like the other vehicles in fortnite. This would solve all problems. It would still allow people to be creative and build massive flying bases, also.
@@DirtBagD0m for some reason the left lever broke on its own while flying, I tried placing a new one and it worked but only for the rear ones.. so I was stuck going straight or right.
Unfortunately, regardless of how the build is done, eventually the air ships glitch....and it's due to the fact the steering thrusters are not connected to anything at all. I've got a lot of builds I'm personally working on but using the dynamic pads as steering thrusters is the most stable.
@@Kaboom_2084 bro that would change things up so much.....no more needing to break and glitch platforms? This should have been thought of from the beginning
@@DirtBagD0m very true. I will admit I'm not always patient 😂 I'd didn't realize it was your video. I enjoyed it. Very well put together. If you were looking for some more content. I was considering trying to make docking locations for the desert and snow near caves. Could be fun to see how you would do something like that.
I took your turning and added it to someone elses build, ill have to find out whos but i do know it has 6 big balloons and uses a copper box for landing
The skeletons in the desert zone drop blast powder also you don’t have to use as many thrusters as I did on the turning you will just turn slower the less you use
Blast powder isnt hard. Every desert skeleton with the cowboy hat and bandana will drop one on death. Then desert villagers collecting nearby resources will load up too. I can go back to my desert village every couple in game days and most of my villagers have atleast a 10 stack. I have no problem finding 20-30 blast powder just running around the desert killing skeletons in 1 in game night.
Dont waste your time ive built 2 large awesome air ships only for this piece of crap game to glitch out and get my airship stuck in the ground or glitches me off in the middle of nowhere or it spawns u in a random spot miles from anywhere ive had enough, dont play this stupid game until they fix it
Well, it's sandbox mode, and I'm sure he's doing it this way so he doesn't waste resources to show you how it's built. It's not cheating if it's an actual mode built by the game, doesn't matter your opinion. Be thankful there are content creators like this who are gonna take the time to make your adventure easier.
@@DirtBagD0m I've got builds that include that as an idea, also try granite blocks, they weigh more usually 3 4x6x2 do the trick, it's the granite foundation #2
@@DirtBagD0m also also, try putting tires on. It'll help with the landing.....don't put them on the sides put them underneath. It's a lot more cost effective to use small tires underneath so it can lightly bounces when it hits the ground
Daaaamn bro sorry to hear 😪 I got a cheaper build coming soon also if you want to rebuild this one you don’t have to use as many thrusters as I did in the video you could put 2 on each turning platform and then 2 on the back
i made a auto landing version of this ship ua-cam.com/video/ajNX-51IAhI/v-deo.html&ab_channel=DirtBagDom

thank you
This one is really the best. Thanks a lot.
thank you 🙌❤
I love it also sounds like a terrifying battle is coming your way 😂😂😂
you guys don't have to use as many thrusters as I did. you can use 2 on each turning foundation and 2 on the back for 6 in total
How do you get those big pillars?
afaik, only in sandbox mode, there isn't such thing in survival, you have to improvise@@johnschade90

Did you make this up yourself? Nice
bro nice now i know how to build an airship thx bro
how do u get the 4x4x8 platform?
sandbox only
Yeah I didn’t know when I recorded its sand box only but if you use cement blocks it only takes a couple big blocks
This is crazy good! I’m subbing
Real one 💯❤️

I was surprised it was still in 1 piece when he was done with it 😂
drove it like he stole it
@@DirtBagD0m
Do you have any issues with the side thrusters flying off?? Every vehicle i’ve built through tutorials some part of it ends up glitching and flying off
If I were to put tires around mine would that protect it from collisions?
On the bottom for sure but I haven’t tried putting any on the sides because tires weigh it down
But that’s a good idea I’ll test it later today

how do y'all unlock those tower foundations? my village is lvl 9 and still nothing
Sorry you can’t unlock them on survival but you could put cement on the back instead and it works
I didn’t know they are only in sandbox when I recorded
thanks@@DirtBagD0m
Does this still work or is it fixed already?
How can I get the large foundation, to get the ship down?
I have a village on forest snow and desert biome at level 10.
dang I'm not sure but somebody told me concrete is heavier than wood so you can try that. ill try to figure out how to unlock them and let you know
Yo sorry bro you can’t unlock them in survival I’ve been using the long concrete pieces to land
Does it still work after everyone goes out of the server then back in?
Yeah as long as nobody logs out on the ship
Bros play Zelda tears of the kingdom but in Lego Fortnite 😂 I swear people are so quick to show how creative they are it’s amazing
😂❤️
the fences keep breaking for me then the turning system flies off in the distance lol i finally got it to work tho. Thanks for the design!
Has the fences still been breaking on you?
Are the builds still bugging out in survival? Cuz i done a few in survival and they all break or dissapear when i log back in
the game is still very buggy mine hasn't bugged out in survival. try not to log out right after you build it and never log out on your ship
Awesome

I kinda like that its big, does anyone know if it works on ps
Yeah it does my cousin plays on PlayStation and he built it
Any way i can add storage to it?

you'll fall through the floor when the flex platform glitches and lose your ship
