The problem with the RPM variable is that it doesn't account for propeller rotation not produced by the engine.
i.e. If your engine is off (the prop is not spinning) and you roll, the propeller won't rotate with the plane. The RPM variable will still say 0.
That's probably also what's causing your props to collide when you roll

@Ded Thank you!
I think we used a pretty similar technique for the airbrakes. I basically did that with sideways fuselage blocks and used rise to get the angle.
.
An F-2A would be interesting. I probably won't be able to convert this into one, but we'll see. If anything though, I'm probably gonna try to do an Su-27 or F-15 next to get more experience with these features on a different airframe.
I've thought about this too
Probably something like:
Throttle*clamp01((GS>a & GS<a+x))
Throttle can be changed to whatever you're using for the engine
a = Gear change speed
x = The smaller this is, the shorter the gear change
Add more *clamp01((GS>a & GS<a+x)) to add more gears
I don't know if car engines have throttleResponse as a variable, but if it does, set it to 1
@IceCraftGaming I concur that, without a doubt, the currently available evidence, does in fact, seems to point towards the hypothesis which you have proposed being a true statement.
@TRD Maybe. Sounds like a fun side project. I don't know if they use the Block 52 specifically though

+2@Sparky6004 Those gears were an absolute pain but they came out really well I think. If you look at the FT in the gear rotors it gets pretty ugly

+2Cool
+2I wonder if there is a way to make it not rotate the other way when passing 180 degrees heading though
@Rifimaka and you're exactly right
+2Swept wings are not great when it comes to low speed performance as well, which is kinda replicated in SP.

Looks doable with FT

@zou27877 Sort of? Since I do roll and yaw stabilization too, I call it ElevStab now. (And of course, there's RollStab and YawStab)
+2@Stanmich yeah tru
+2Have you tried changing the tail rotor setting from Rate to Heading? That should help. You don't really need FT to make a heli fly good
