Do you think a wind-functioning wind turbine could work without having to do Any imputs?

I keep trying to make a wind turbine that functions fully on present wind without a need to adjust pitch and throttle by the AI, to make a wind farm near wright or something, but I haven’t been able to do so yet

    @Solent Scratch that! Seems like I just needed those parentheses to enclose the link and it worked! Thought you meant to put everything after the ![], not in parentheses

    @Solent ok, I belive 1 Last thing, I gotta figure out how to put it into a way that the SP forums can have it, like the ![], but I gotta figure the exact way to put it so it shows the image

    it needs to be the "direct link", so it should say something like "https://i.postimg.cc/Dy1vbRPH/vibes-positive.gif" and not just "https://postimg.cc/w7T8CfPQ"

    @Solent Uhh, it isn’t working. Maybe I have to select a certain option?

    i don't think you can embed videos in aircraft posts, i think that has to be on the videos tab.

    the only way i think you'd be able to simulate camera inputs like that for vr players is to mount a chair on a bunch of rotators and control it as a separate camera view

    @NTH you need to upload it somewhere like postimages and copy the link from there

    And also, is it allowable to put screen recordings on aircraft posts or does it have to be on the Video tab?

    @Solent Okay, but I actually need the camera on the plane for some sort of onboard camera view from the control desk, BCS RN if there were VR people, they have to look at the plane and zoom in, which is very hard.

    if the windmill thing is too complicated i might be able to make it if you send me an unlisted post of it

    and to put an image on a post you'll just do ![](your image link here)
    if you mean the thumbnail you can import your image (all three put on the same file, maybe done with this ) as a blueprint and just take the screenshots from that

    @NTH you might be able to use something like this to make a pseudo-camera view but it won't be live, just an image. You could also make a fake-screen with blades from fuselages and put the blades on a rotator and set the input to "current angle" from one of the actual rotators on the windmills.

    @Solent okay, 2 more things. Do you know how to put some sort of screen with a camera view on a text box, and how do I put an image on a post?

    @Solent that was a GREAT idea, just implemented the system into a small turbine

    @NTH use wings on a block on a free spin rotator and build the blades otherwise if wings looks too bad

    @Solent Well Yeah, but I haven’t been able to find anything on the site that would spin at about 5 MPH of wind, it’d take me about 150 to make it spin, and then it’d be off it’s base by then, I also want it to self-orient so it’s more effective. I might try and make a simple one

    i think it will.. maybe
    just anchoring problem... may be solved by putting so much weight on it
    im not sure
