...how do I make a propeller plane generate forward thrust
<Althego>
spin the bladfes?
<Althego>
blades
<GlassYuri>
I think I've been putting them at the wrong angle
<Althego>
is this the new blades or an old stock thing?
<GlassYuri>
rotating them a bit made it exceed 6 m/s
<GlassYuri>
the current stock ones
<Althego>
look in the menu
<Althego>
deploy
<Althego>
the default is the undeployed state
<Althego>
which regardless how you put them on
<Althego>
never generates thrust
<GlassYuri>
...why
<Althego>
it took me an hour or so to figure that out
<Althego>
dont know why
<Althego>
the undeployed, or as normally called feathered state is useful for gliding
<Althego>
because there is no drag either
<Althego>
but the deployed state should be the default
<GlassYuri>
...all control surfaces have the "deploy" thing as well
<GlassYuri>
do I have to deploy them too?
<Althego>
in fact i turn on deploy and turn of any control on them
<Althego>
because the results are horrible otherwise
<Althego>
you can bind them to some action to deploy
<Althego>
or just have them deployed by default in the editor
<Althego>
not that you can also mirror them for reverse spin
<UmbralRaptop>
deploy for normal control surfaces is really for flaps
<Althego>
*note
<GlassYuri>
...makes sense for flaps

well, I went airborne, but got screwed by my landing gear placement
<GlassYuri>
front wheel, tail wheel, and wingtip gear that is mounted higher up, so the plane is tilted to one side on the ground
<Althego>
better use counter rotating props
<GlassYuri>
I have them
<GlassYuri>
one at the front and one at the back of the plane

do I have to invert the motor rotation if the part is placed backwards? to have it spin in the other direction as the one spinning forwards
<GlassYuri>
*as the one placed forwards
<Althego>
hehe i never tried that
<Althego>
if it rotates in the other direction is guess it is ok
<GlassYuri>
I can't visually tell
<GlassYuri>
I'll try slowing the motors down
<Althego>
as it spins up or down it should be visible
<Althego>
note you dont need to suse the biggest motors
<Althego>
*use
<GlassYuri>
they are counter-rotating
<Althego>
hehe suse
<GlassYuri>
I have only one motor unlocked
<Althego>
(i hate suse)
