How do I stop me plane from shaking at high speeds?

2,221 AEGIS  2.5 years ago

I've made a "hypersonic" plane, but when I go above 2000mph my entire plane starts to shake very stiffly in the roll axis (as in it's not a smooth motion, it's jerky and immediate). Does anyone else have this problem, and if so do you have a fix?

    @xr8743sp @TheFlightGuySP @AEGIS sorry little late, i found a solution, just put a weight in tip of your wings

    It’s means your plane isn’t aerodynamic

    @AEGIS In that case, it's just aerodynamics; you need to fly higher because the air is too dense, causing your aircraft to shake at high speeds.

    @HuskyDynamics01 that didn't work, I literally made them as small as possible

    @AEGIS If it's the whole plane, definitely try reducing the size of the wings.

    @TheFlightGuySP it's not the wing that's shaking, it's the whole plane

    I recommend getting a structural wing, opening the XML editor, find "allowControlSurfaces" under the "Wing" field and set it to "true". You can save this new wing as a subassembly, then all you have to do is pull it out of the menu whenever you need it, and modify it as needed. The wing won't shake violently at high speeds.

    @X99STRIKER Oh, might be that. I can't remember.

    I though it was wing-1?

    Either shrink the size of the wings or set their part type (via Overload) to Wing-2.
