Dude iz just a game. duddnt have to be realistic. Plus when i said it would be great for turboprops i meant cause turboprops mimic piston engine of the real world. The P-47 had a turbo-supercharger system that gave it all 2300 horsepower up to 36 thousand feet. The Cessna 182 Sky lane's turbocharger gives it all 350 horses up to 19 thousand. Our engines are basically naturally aspirated. So a SSC Ultimate Aero (most powerful naturally aspirated car) would have similar power drop off at altitude as our engines do. That's no way to fly a plane amiright?

Mod request: A turbocharger system / part that allows small engines like Junos and Wheesleys to produce sea level power up to 20 - 25 thousand feet. Would be great for turboprop planes. Edit: Could have a PSI boost to increase overall power output.

@klond Did you ever put the engine from your Motorcar on a plane? Cause i went ahead and did it for you. First inline powered aircraft? if not, definitely the first twin.

Beginnings of a Sudo-muscle car creature. Top speed of around 160 mph. Incredibly fun to throw around corners and jump over building. Super durable, lots of features. Planning on functional T-top Gullwing doors in the future.

Good luck

I am thoroughly blown away. amazing job!

Looks great

finally got my game working. celebrated by whipping this up in a couple hours. 1450 parts, super durable, fun to throw around'

i know but its still weird

definitely not the case. it was repeatable under different conditions. I take back what i said. This one definitely weirder.

One time when i was working on one of my free-prop planes the prop duplicated itself when the physics loaded. Took a game restart to fix it.

I used to use elevons to block thrust to control yaw on tailless aircraft. Works basically the same.

Dang that progressed quick. The record was around 250 since last September i think. Me and Azimech and another guy raced to the top for a good couple weeks.

Link. I need evidence.

@erasmusguy Operation SSTO Float Plane is a go Had to redesign a "little"

If any of you know me well enough you'll know that i can't pass up a good old build challenge. For @erasmusguy SSTo Float Plane current progress.

Holding the stock turboprop absolute speed record for a period of time was my proudest moment.

I cant believe your still working on that bridge. What are your PC specs.

Mine arn't turboprops though sadly, just static aesthetic pieces. At some point i want to adapt them into a unpowered ebaring so that they move with the airflow like my Turboprop Trainer aircraft and old B-25. My main PC is having issues so part count makes working on the An-22 difficult ATM. I got it to fly and look (kinda) like the real thing. i'll work on it more later.

Night #1 progress Still needs some work.

Antheus

Guess the plane? She still needs some work XD

Made a bunch of Aesthetic improvements to the 777. It's hard to work with because lag but she flies and looks good. Changed mostly the wing sweep angle at the tips and removed/clipped a bunch of struts and ugly stuff.

Ive taken a hiatus from KSP for a while and gahdang this stuff is beautiful. The design meta for good looking stuff has changed in the past couple months and turboprop technology has improved monumentously. It'll take a while for me to catch up.

Its a XB-70 Valkyrie. A Classic
