P-56-G

6,470 Typhlosion130  8.3 years ago

After taking an engine segment and saving it as a subassembly. I decided to modify my P-56 and add the engines to its front and back. several versions tons of tweaking shrinking and drag managment later I have a contender on my entry design. I have to figure out the optimal poropeller setup for the T3000 (since it seems to be different than the 1000) so I can get fixed popeller pitch and get it a good initall accelleration and top speed. and this may be the winning plane.

    Ok. It gets mine up to 751! Yay!! But there is a random engine that doubled my drag for some reason.

    Since you used my prop setup, can I please use your idea of putting one backwards and one forwards?

    The first prop is maxed out every thing along with the last one. The one is the middle has manuel prop pitch. Put throttle governer on and put +75% on it. Tie the pitch to throttle and you get a quickly accelerating prop. @Anony

    @Anony I didn't. I don't know how to do this with T3000s. I just ripped a subasembly off another plane for use here. I nkow how to do this with T1000s but not 3000s.
