@Thorne It works! thanks! I can edit these formula to suit my needs now
also, sinking the ship and the crew swimming for dear life sounds like a good idea. It will be a long time before this ship is released so I may add that on its features.
Scale is off on your flaps.
.
Alt answer: Create a fake flap with wing and rotators. Disable drag on fake flap then add a another tiny wing hidden somewhere that will do the work your fake flaps should have done. The good thing about this is you can control the tiny wing's behavior without ruining the looks of your plane.
My Space Ship. I'm happy it got 30 upvotes but i was expecting more since i spend lots of time making it.
I thought the ship was very good but, honestly, when i flew it yesterday its pretty sh!t. Im not surprised it didnt garner attention as much as i expect it to do. I may redo it in the future when i have the motivation.
if you open up the engine compartment you would see that it has a very simple circuitry. so there is no way to put controls for engine power other than the on/off switch
Turn throttle governor on then lower the props' HP a bit. With the governor on, the props will start spinning independently from your throttle but since it has no pitch (or until you use yaw) it does not affect your heli's flight.
If you have a slow pc (like I do).. please use Medium Water instead of High.
The boat tends to bug out on High + Ocean mod + slow @ss pc
Edit:
i just realized that the boat turns unrealistically fast. IF you want to tone it down please find the shrunk down VTOL nozzle i used to counter-steer the boat. It is located slightly below where the Center of Mass (CoM) lines intersect. Change its Input to this:
(Roll < 0 ? 0.35 : 0) + (Roll > 0 ? -0.35 : 0)
Another note: some people reported ths boat is too bouncy on pc with Intel HD graphics when played without Ocean mod. Please set your game to run on a proper GPU or play with Ocean mod if your laptop doesn't have a GPU :)

@Thorne @Fishminer -- Its done guys! I hope you like it.

+1Does MaxThrottle and ZeroThrottle work? How to use them?
Edit: found them on the Control Settings. I thought they are new xml inputs
+1Close the game and open it again? Maybe you're just lagging..

Good heli!

Thanks!
+1@KerlonceauxIndustries Thank you
+1It looks like something found in Mad Max
+1@scratch it doesnt seem to take the min/max values of the rotators... this makes it great for Roll tho
+1Amazing!
+1Your FT code for traverse and elevation is what i was looking for! Can you rewrite it without the bit that uses VTOL?

+1@Thorne im using it for a soldier's arm. When he's above the water he'll be slashing his sword but when he's on the water (< 3ft) he'll try to swim.
I'm making a medieval ship. I'd like to add soldiers on board for boarding operations.

+1beautiful!
+1this is great!
+1@randomusername with guns active. probably should have read the description to fire it only at very low altitude.
+1@randomusername i'm asking for volunteers only :)
and, i flew your airship and crop duster yesterday but forgot to upvote! the crop duster lagged my phone tho
+1How did you stabilize your turret horizontally?
+1@ZHUAREVONI thanks!

+1great use of wheels!
+1@chancey21 haha! love those batteries sticking out in the front
+1the best way to diagnose the problem is to post the plane unlisted and share the link
+1@Dllama4 it wasnt a secret..the tittle is just clickbait..
+1@Strikefighter04 sorry about the tittle similarity..
+1- Lower your plane's speed.
- Use two piston/rotator assembly instead of one and connect them to your flaps on both sides. This will add some strength.
- reduce the mass of your flaps to zero.
- dont use too many disconnected bodies. example: fuelage>
+1rotator>wing>rotator>some more fuselage>rotator>piston>flaps.are you still working on this? if possible can you make the borderless screen and a circular screen.. plz

+1@EasternPatrick ahh yes, i have this keyboard to "improve" my GTA:SA game. I forgot that it could be used for SP (and any other app) as well.
@Jester I was only able to test for 15 mins anyway (work is busy this week) so it may be possible that the Sunfish is just unlucky as you said.
Regardless, im not complaining since my other boat is included in the mod.
Finally got around to test this mod out. Its awesome!
Thanks for including my Westerly Wind. Tho i can't find my Sunfish. I wonder if its included in the mod too.
I hate this vehicle in SA. Its hard to steer and cant catch up to OG Loc

It works alright on Android phones though.
