[1.02] Spin-o-Tron Motors (FINALLY UPDATED)

[lajoswinkler]

No need to be rude. I tried to use IR before and this is way better if you just want a piece that rotates at wanted speed.

I do have a suggestion to make. The lowest speed is still too high. I can get it to 0.08 and it's too fast for me. Otherwise it's very cool tiny mod, does the work as advertised.

I love this mod (and flying vtol's). I really think stock lacks helicopters.

and this is a gyroplane (the motors aren't powered up)

Does it work in the new 1.0/1.0.2?

[Byter]

Noticed some bugs...but the basic functions still work.

One bug I found was using the 3m part and it simply did not attach on one side and in connection with another one it did not rotate.

This is awesome! I'm looking forward to creating nicely styled rotational station and habitats for long term exploratory craft. Thanks!

I'm not sure that it is a bug, supposed to be like it is, or my own issues when trying to attach the rotational parts. They don't seem to want to snap into the connections, or other parts only want to connect backwards to them.

Peace.

Interesting, I've been wondering how possible this would be for a while. I never thought to look for unused modules, I was gonna try and push animateGeneric to the limits. Well done figuring it out!

How fast do those gyroplane rotors spin? I built one using IR's docking washers in .90 and the rotors effectively acted like stationary wings, just rotating real slowly. For parts not sticking check the bottom node entry in the CFG. The 3rd number from the right end must have a - sign. The bottom node must point down of KSP won't allow anything to attach to it. Didn't use to be like that but they fixed it.

I can't seem to find these parts in-game. It was working prior to 1.0.4. Anyone else had this problem?

There just copied stock docking ports and if you in a career you might change the TechRequired = ******

I finally found them. They were under "Actuators" with the claw.

2 question

-can I dock something on a rotating part? (can't do that with IR)

-the problem with KJR is ok now?

Hello ! I don't know if I'll get an answer, but np.. I try ! xD

I downloaded this mod.... But it doesn't work !! 

So i was wondering, does the motor need anything special to work (like fuel or something else) because i tried everything.. And how does it work ? Do we need to press a key ?

Maybe that's because the mod is for 1.02 and we are in 1.3.1 xD

Thank you to the guy who will read my post. Bye ^^
