ist just rotators+wings. use Trim to control. Always use both of them. otherwise your submarine/boat will start to roll. if you want more speed, just set the speed of the rotator higher (i´´ve tested it with up to 3.5). feel free to modify and upload your own version. if you need help with moding, i´ll help you of Course.

btw this Thing is aleady a boat, so you can test it out

    @Handlewithcare normally the input of a rotator is VTOL, right?

    if you change that to sum(VTOL) you get an infinite rotator that is even better than this one

    sum() is the integrating (or summing) function. for every second the value inside the brackets is 1, the output of the function increases by one

    so if you write sum(1) into the input field, after 1 second the rotator will be at 90°. after 2 seconds at 180° and so on

    hope that helps, let me know what you're building ^^

    (and be patient as i'm online very rarely these days :))

    @Handlewithcare I don't think it has infinite rotation but you can increase the rotation limit to the maximum.

    what is the code to make it spin infinitely? I'm trying to make a sub assembly, but I don't know the code. Pls help

    @Draco777 interesting, simpleplanes changed the inverting system a few years back

    all you have to do is to invert the left rotator, have fun!

    @PilotOfFuture Trim to control, right? The boat is still rolling even if i use both

    OR, another viable option is to simply look around my posts-I had worked with them before, @PilotOfFuture

    @PilotOfFuture Introduce @Visify , a master in making PISTON ENGINES. Use one of his builds and figure out the rest. XD

    I would snap some piston engine instead of these....
