For all those people who use variables and overload coding or whatever it’s called, I’ve asked this question once but annoyingly I got silly and unprofessional answers which didn’t not help me.
So, down to business, I’m working on a helicopter rotor that is powered by a Vtol engine. The four blades have a vtol nozzle on them.
It’s perfect but I want to make a cinematic video on YouTube with my creation.
I’m just wondering, is there perhaps a way that I could make the Vtol rotor slowly start up and then gain speed or is that just impossible and a dream on kinda idea. After seeing what variables can do, I began to have some form of hope.
I haven’t even tried it yet, I will now, so I don’t know yet @JustWingIt

@Soardivision160th Weird, i guess that doesn't work with vtol engines. Maybe try using smooth(Throttle, 0.5) as the input.
Well, when I do that the only thing it does is make the engine sound start up slower, doesn’t really do anything to the rotors in general. @Korzalerke
Try adding throttleResponse to the VTOL engine powering the nozzles using overload and set it to a really low number like 0.05
By the way, it’s a MH-60L Blackhawk if you can’t find it. @Soardivision160th @PlaneFlightX
Okay, here it comes @PlaneFlightX
Sure thing, and maybe you could fix the rotor problem I’m having, the blades tilt and it only wants to bank right (fly to the side) yet I don’t want to push to much in your plate. @PlaneFlightX @PlaneFlightX
@Soardivision160th Why don't you post it and I'll have a look.
Sorry, it didn’t work, if it helps, I’ll post my helicopter so you can tinker with it, maybe I didn’t explain what I needed very well, you know how a helicopter’s rotors start up slowly and gain speed, that’s what I’m trying to do but I’m still unsure if it’s possible. @PlaneFlightX
@Soardivision160th The simple code we want is smooth(Throttle, x)
replace x with a number. Higher values are faster speeds and lower values area lower speeds.
I’d also like it to start up as slow as possible, could you also tell me how to increase the speed once you are done, your a life saver dude.@PlaneFlightX
Yes it’s normal throttle input, explain to me very slowly what you need me to do. @PlaneFlightX
How is the engine powered? A normal throttle input? It is perfectly doable, I just need the input of the engine to get coding (it'll take like 1 minute).
