What about it? It is one of the similar saved I was speaking of. Most definitely not copied.

Okay, let's get this straight. Airfoils (most modern wings are in this shape, along with helicopter blades and many propellors) work through Bernoulli's Principle, which, in basic form, states that moving air is lower pressure than stationary air. What a wing does is force the air moving above the wing, on the long, curved side, to move much faster than the air moving on the flat bottom side. This causes the pressure to be lower above the wing than anywhere else, and the air below the wing to be higher pressure, causing the wing to move upwards in an attempt to equalize this difference. Also, in regards to this being "stolen": Although there are quite a few wing shapes and wind tunnel saves in TPT (a quick keyword search proves this), this save is the first time I have seen a ambient air heating and cooling system that works in this way. So, you can say it is "copied", but there is a HUGE difference between similar, and copied. This save is only similar to the other wind tunnel saves.

@BuilderDragonSS:then its not copied.

@xetalim, i forgot what was the name or id, i just remembered how it was and this is like the one i remembered

I see no issue... It is high under the wing, Velocity View just doesn't show it that way, as that is not how it works.

And apparently powder toy wings don't work (The pressure pattern is wrong, should be high under the wing)
