Need help with build

465 AkhosErebus  2 months ago

cant seem to get the wing movement on my aircraft to work correctly, and have no idea how to fix it, it uses control bases but i cant get them to stop flopping around

    @AkhosErebus you didn't had to. But, appreciate the extra effort you took.
    By the way, I know it's a sweep wing and the problem you are facing is oscillation.

    @overlord5453 figured it would be easier to add something outside the plane to show what the wings are supposed to do instead of having to try and look inside it

    @overlord5453 the thing on top is just meant to show the movement, but yeah i may have said rotators by mistake

    @AkhosErebus by the way, those are hinges on the top. Haven't looked at it yet.

    @AkhosErebus wait, is it a control base or a rotator? Either way, tag me on the unlisted post. I will look into it once I am free.

    @overlord5453 tried that, as well as increasing the mass of the rotators/control bases, and adding damperMultiplier

    @AkhosErebus ohh. Anyway, it has probably something to do with mass scale. Try setting mass scale of the wings to zero.

    @overlord5453 i mean like a more complicated variable sweep, but its basically acting like its not connected. the movement works when the aircraft is on the ground butnit cant support itself in flight. will include a seperate demonstrator to show what the end goal is ofc since its hard to see inside the aircraft

    @AkhosErebus ahh, so a canard or the elevator. Anyway, by flopping around do you mean it keeps moving around like it's disconnected or just moving without an input?

    @overlord5453 not a control surface, literally the entire wing lol

    I have yet to use control base for control surfaces.
