Kerbal Space Program Tutorial - Twin Propeller Airplane

Whats better than a single prop plane? A twin prop plane. This weeks tutorial will get you on your way. Thanks for watching. Next up is a Chinook style helicopter. Be sure to subscribe and hit me up on reddit u/johnnyoneshot or instagram @johnny_builds_ksp Thanks.

Really good video can't wait for the next one (Chinook)

thanks i used to not be able to build a twin or one prop plane thanks for the tutorial i subed and liked

[@randomguy4900]

Thanks! This really helped me.

[@DeanJump]

Love your vids keep it up!

Who else watched the crew dragon launch?

[@JohnnyOneShot]

I watched probably a good 2 hours Wednesday during the canceled launch. And probably 2 Saturday. Amazing stuff.

[@hibro625]

yeah about the same for me

[@matchesburn]

Hey, I tried to make a pusher-puller prop plane (one engine in back and one in the front). Even with attempting to alter clockwise/counterclockwise in every configuration the plane just violently shakes itself apart. I'm doing SOMETHING wrong, but I have no idea what. Could you try building one and showing how it can work?

[@JohnnyOneShot]

I can. That’s a simple fix though. So let both rotors rotate clock wise. One facing forward and one facing backwards. Do the front one like normal. Use CW blades on it. On the back, use CCW blades but make the painted side of the blades face the front of the craft. Provide as normal after that. While the back rotor is running CW, it’s actually running CCW in relation to the craft because it’s facing backwards.

[@kanokwanphuawongphat1021]

Fun fact: you can just bind the rotors to the main throttle no kal 1000

[@HenriqueLuizHogrefe]

When I take off with my aircraft it yaws to one side, please help.

[@laykenhinch982]

This guy has sheldon vibes for some reason

[@JohnnyOneShot]

Ouch, I think..

[@That.1.Broski]

U see how u do the "dot" when setting the blade angle in the KAL-1000, I don't encounter any of the things you mentioned

[@CPS747-8]

I tried doing this, but my propellers won't change angle (even though I did the same things you did). Am I doing something wrong? I'm also playing on PC, so I don't know if that makes a difference.

[@JohnnyOneShot]

Yes it does and I didn’t know that at the time of the video. Instead of authority limiter, use deploy angle. And set it 0 in the middle and all the way up in the right.

[@CPS747-8]

@@JohnnyOneShot Ah. Thank you! Now I am able to get it to work!

[@JohnnyOneShot]

Woot

[@butwhy7138]

Same here but I'm on xbox

[@georgebordman9980]

Dude I'm confused af rn. I've been building loads of prop stuff recently with great success but I cant seem to get twin props to produce even thrust. Even on a simple test rig with opposite rotation yano all the good stuff. Just yaws the structure 😒

[@Nodnarb69]

I know this is a year lol, but if it’s going to the side then you got thrust going forward and back. Probably from countering your motor, you gotta take that into account.

[@WabbitSwayer70]

My engines start but don't stay on

[@barrelbottom6253]

I may be late, but I have a question, do I need any DLC's to make this? I'm asking because I'm on pc and can't find the robotics section.

[@JohnnyOneShot]

Yes. It’s the breaking ground dlc

[@gadioron]

What is the tool that you use at 0:55?

[@JohnnyOneShot]

Mirror mode. if you’re on pc, the controls may be different.

[@wanda8458]

i know i’m really late but for some reason my plane accelerates to only about 60 m/s do you know what might be happening?

[@JohnnyOneShot]

Maybe more angle or less weight

[@wanda8458]

@@JohnnyOneShotIt’s about 11 tons, is it too much?

[@wanda8458]

@@JohnnyOneShotmaneged to fix it, it was the angle of the prop, thx bro keep going your new content is great!

[@GiulioVonKerman]

Works this with electric rotors?

[@JohnnyOneShot]

Yes it works with electric motors.

[@GiulioVonKerman]

@@JohnnyOneShot Thank you very much!

[@Brikzy]

My plane accelerates until about 3/4ths throttle then it starts to reverse. Do you know anything about this?

[@JohnnyOneShot]

Yes, there’s a maximum angle. Don’t go full throttle.

[@jimlahey750]

Why is my plane going backwards??

[@JohnnyOneShot]

The blades are either on backwards or you pitched them the wrong way.

[@damienhill9315]

My engines won’t start?

[@JohnnyOneShot]

Torque % going up?

[@damienhill9315]

Johnny Builds KSP I figured it out, thanks for the help

[@unknowngamedev909]

is console harder than pc?

[@That.1.Broski]

Yes, all of it is combos and it's just so fiddly, consider yourself lucky if your on pc
