    good luck

    @Chancey21 I wanted to, but I find this community more suitable, for some reason

  • Pictures from space 5.8 years ago

    @AchuTMM NOAA themselves made a 100+ page manual describing how to set up your own receiver. The NASA dishes you talk about are for interplanetary missions, where the satellites they need to talk can be millions of times further than the NOAA ones, which orbit at 850km

  • Pictures from space 5.8 years ago

    @AchuTMM The satellite that I pulled the data from is super close to Earth, and it was launched with the intent to provide this data to anyone who can tune in, very useful if there is a disaster or a blackout and individual people need to predict the weather. Even if Fallout 76 happens IRL those sats would still be in orbit, providing weather coverage

    @JohnnyBoythePilot you don't have to link to them, they broadcast it for anyone to pick up, you just need a proper antenna and a radio that can tune into 137-138MHz

  • Pictures from space 5.8 years ago

    @DepressedTortoise tbh the signal can be picked up pretty much anywhere where you can see the sky. It is common for the satellites to do an overhead pass, but even elevations around 30 degrees work. Also, they are on polar orbits, so they fly over every single point on the planet

  • Can not download craft. (To Devs.) 5.8 years ago

    Use the bug tag or (preferably) file a bug report.
    What method are you using to load planes? Via the website, or Ctrl+L?

    @BACconcordepilot @Brields95 its not in the game doods, overload wont save you

  • Water Level Setter 5.8 years ago

    @WNP78 do you think it would be possible to make a tournament mod, so you could run your own tournament locally on your machine? or would that be too much of a modding task?

  • What is your favorite airplane? 5.8 years ago

    Boeing 707 or the Douglas DC-8. I'd give anything for a flight in one of those. If I ever become a millionaire, I swear to god right now that I will restore one as my busyness jet

  • Is there anyway to import Google Sketchup Models into this Game? 5.8 years ago

    There is, or, there would be if you put the effort in. The result would be several thousand parts on a creation that could be done in less than a few hundred.

  • SHIP FRENZY 5.8 years ago

    Would this also count as a ship? cuz I want to join the bandwagon but I have never made a ship

  • Tully2001 140K celebration post 5.8 years ago

    @AngelaMerkel in that case, let me reformulate the question, although I know the answer is yes: are you actual Angela Merkel, the leader of the Fourth Reich?

  • Tupolev Tu-144 (Remastered No.2) 5.8 years ago

    @Vidal99977 should I also fix the pitch problems, while I'm at it?

    @SupremeDorian wait really? that's weird, perhaps it is provided by some mods, but I did try to disable all and it still worked

  • Bohemian Airlines Expo #2 5.8 years ago

    @NewBohemia Never breaking character I see... alright.
    As the CEO of the entire Skychaser conglomerate I was forced to relocate our production to a more stable location. For several months not a single report came from within New Bohemia which led many to believe that the Workers Party was not able to keep its lead and the nation stable. We are now too integrated and decentralised, so we will not be able to bring our entire company back to Bohemian soil. I hope that this mild complication will not stand in the path of our future relationship, with New Bohemia being our longtime customer.
    There you go

  • AMAZING New Science (No Moving Parts Plane) 5.8 years ago

    I'm not saying it is bad. Of course it is great, mainly for high-altitude applications. This will allow us to have air-breathing satellites that orbit at much lower altitudes than currently possible.

  • AMAZING New Science (No Moving Parts Plane) 5.8 years ago

    @BACconcordepilot and there is still drag - the electrodes must be positioned in the airflow or else they won't work. And I wouldn't put much hope into performance of such engine when supersonic

  • AMAZING New Science (No Moving Parts Plane) 5.8 years ago

    @BACconcordepilot no propulsion method can achieve 100% efficiency. There are power losses in the voltage converter, there are power losses in the wires that power the engines themselves, there are power losses in the heat generated by the entire system (as minimal as it can be). And at a larger scale those factors would get even worse. What I think is the future of propulsion in aviation are biofuels. A jet engine running on biofuel will blow both electric motors and ion engines away when looking at the thrust-to-weight ratio

    @BACconcordepilot ahh, good to know that I looked like an idiot just saying y tho :D
    thanks for clarifying

  • AMAZING New Science (No Moving Parts Plane) 5.8 years ago

    Nice concept, but I don't see it replacing electric engines. I mean, when you already have all of those batteries and electronics on board, just hook up a proven DC motor to it and you're good to go

    @Notaleopard I'll probably be posting a lot of backup planes there that I don't want on my main as they are only useful to me

    @ThePrototype ok thanks, that's my second account and I forgot to switch before I posted.
