High Gear Ratio Demonstration

35.1k IzzyIA  6.6 years ago

This is a demonstration to show how you can use gear ratios to greatly improve the speed of a rotation. The only downside is that it requires more torque the faster you increase the speed via gear ratios. Luckily, the rotators in Simple Planes have infinite torque as far as I know, so it isn’t problem. Anyways, VTOL to Control rotation, enjoy.

    Step 1: Resize the smaller gear into much tiny
    Step 2: Make the larger gear even larger
    Step 3: Load the game and note the amount of mechanical advantage
    Step 4: Now imply this to the stock plane P51 mustang and watch if it can beat the fastest plane in the world.
