77part T-1 PolyR Tank (WIP stabilisation)
——————————Intro——————————
Low Poly style tank made as an experiment for a single hinge stabilisation system using only the code on part, hence why it has a primitive pitch stabilisation hinge that I was playing around with.
—————————Notes———————————
The code I came up with reads:
clamp(sum(Pitch)-PitchAngle/x ,-.4375,.5)
With the x being a value that I can change depending on the hinge range to make the movement a bit smoother and more stable.
For those who don’t know, the “clamp()” is basically a way of limiting the range of what’s inside the brackets and the “sum()” is what stops the rotor/hinge from returning to neutral. At least I think so...
——————————————————————
If anyone has any suggestions to improve it or a version for horizontal stabilisation then I’d love to hear it!
I’ve seen Some that use the physics of fast spinning masses and gyros but I want to try to make a system that just works off one hinge/rotor for low part stability.

Trim is for throttle
AG7 is the machine gun

@PolyIsGone Np, Hope My Formation Light Be Helpful For You
@MrCOPTY Thanks for all the upvotes. I’ve a few things in the pipeline with FT features so found your post on formation lights via text label very interesting … I’ll have to use that trick sometime.
@PolyIsGone as i thought
@DonateMaster Cheers, only did it as a base to test the system :)
Good Tank
