RAT (ram air turbine)

[Noud]

this is probably just for me, but maybe someone can help me with this

 

 RAT is what real planes use when they have total power failure. its a small windmill that generates ec for the most vital systems

maybe some good code writer can help me write a code that turns a small air intake into a generator?

Well, adding simple E/C generation would prolly be as easy as adding this module from the RTG to the parts .cfg via a module manager patch.

MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleGenerator
        isAlwaysActive = true
        OUTPUT_RESOURCE
        {
            name = ElectricCharge
            rate = 0.75
        }
    }

Tying it into the air intake resource so it only generates E/C when it has air supply is another matter entirely, and over my head sadly.

I made a thread about this a while back, because as a person who intends to become an aviator very shortly, stuff like it makes sense to me.
