weak rotary parts

1. Is there anyway to prevent this? I am not hesitant to modify my own CFG files.

2. Besides is there anyway to strengthen the joints between the parts so i do not need struts, i know how to strengthen the breakpoints, but i have no idea how to strengthen the parts so they do not bend in the joints (besides struts and autostruts).

Haven't done it yet, get back to me if you try it though.

I've heard that KJR can break the parts idk if it does though.

I have actually uninstalled the game, I was a bit disappointed att breaking ground.

They should have named it breaking air, because everything seems to be focused on propellers.

I hope they will fix this for the next update.

Have you found any workarounds?

yes and no;

jet-tipped rotors can only go so fast before breaking so use only two jets on low thrust, install Editor Extentions mod and spam 20 radially-attached rotors everywhere to increase the lift. (don't use the built-in attach nodes when placing, leave at double config and place on the adjacent face)


while the craft did work, it still wasn't suitable for an auto-gyro.

Thank you, for me the problem is the part it self that is bending.

You could fix your issue with modding the parts attachment node strength i think that would help you.

I too, noticed that it's weak-jointed, when attempting to build some rotary aircraft and the rotors bent and buckled under high RPM given by a made up gear system

Do any you know if they have fixed this issue in 1.9?

@Xyphos @KingDominoIII Have any of you found a solution yet? I am still hoping and testing with every new update that comes along.

Xyphos did you try my fix for your problem?

@KerbalSpaceProgram Is this a known problem for you? Where could i address this, to have someone look att it?

@SQUAD

Are you aware of this?

Could you put it in a list to fix? Just for us to get our hopes up.

Or is there somewhere else i can report this? It seems like there is more than me that have this problem.

I am happy to modify myself, but it doesn't look possible?
