Make a rotary engine rotate without using a noisy rotator? I've tried a hidden gyro but that makes the entire setup unstable and I've tried using hidden wings but that is too slow, there's another problem with rotators and that Is the fact that they cannot infinitely rotate at a great speed (needed for realism) so any ideas or solutions or is this impossible? (apologies if I've made any typos I'm very tired as its almost 1 AM here)

    Hmm idk if anyone would want to download a plane that requires a load of mods. And I found out what you mean about max rotation, the thing either explodes or refuses to rotate. @WEAPONSMITH

    I have made the engine model, i need it to rotate as that is what a rotary engine does. @RailfanEthan

    Do these work? If you mean an actual rotator and piston powered plane I know of a build that you could scale down.
