[@logan3770]

In this video, you half discovered an important secret of Besiege physics that allows for very easy and compact rotation of machines. By using wheels with ballasts or any kind of mass attached (unattached braces work the best, because they can't break or break off), you can exert insane amounts of force on the machine. For example, put two (small or large) wheels on top of a car, and add braces or ballasts for mass for the wheels to spin. Bind the wheels to left and right, and you can turn on a dime.

6:11 Gyroscopic inertia. You get a heavy object spinning, it becomes hard to rotate that object on an axis different from the one it's already rotating in

[@MichaelSmith-qb8pp]

Been about 4 years since I last saw content, and I think the thing I love most is how we are trying to fly, but we have already mastered perpetual motion so its not even a footnote.

[@exterminator1k730]

Not a 100% sure if what I'm about to say is correct, But The spinning engine you created with the propellers on it. The reason why it was so stable was because of the rotation on the engine itself. If you ask me it looks like you made an engine and a gyroscope in one machine. The centrifugal force is keeping it steady. Very neat!

[@cinnamonjam9173]

These are incredible. I hope you come back to revisit some of these machines and make them better and work as you wanted.

[@hoistenize]

I really really want to watch this video without subtitles, but your voice and the inflection you use to explain stuff just gets on my nerves in a way I can't explain. I have a feeling I am probably the only one who has this problem

[@blanana_m]

You could make a great helicopter with these engines also I wonder if you can use like a 4 bar linkage to link them together instead of gears

[@drake52]

I think he could however if he did that then the propellers would have spun in the same direction which could cause issues

[@Cutie22704]

Lol the reason it lost altitude is bc the plane itself didn’t have any wings to generate lift, in a real vtol the space between the thrust pods are made of wings that generate lift when it’s going forwards so u only lose altitude in the transition from vtol to forward flight

[@torstenpilgrim5892]

Hey Reid, another thing you could try would be a weaponised zeppelin.

[@fatman248]

thats sick

[@cyrusthagreat6649]

Was it totally impossible to expand the width of the engines at all? Using long braces instead of a ballast to connect the engine core to the spinning propellor, and even in that case expanding the size of the blades using braces attached to full propellors (like the cannon-powered engine from the intro) for greater propulsion? Probably would have been somewhat convoluted and would have required a redesign of the nose but still definitely interesting to consider when theorizing about a true VTOL that can function in plane form.

[@gamingwithcaysen2860]

i suspect you made a gravity ring with the weight and spin of the engine v12 have small rotating clyinders in the block to counteract the force produced the torque makes it stay stable by counteracting forces

NO fun in ppg, physics which just don't work some times, no logic, no simple "and" and "or" logic gates, delays to turn on any objects like a sensor and a piston, then it's not convenient control for me personally to use ctrl + c or ctrl + v is more convenient instead of c and v, and if you still want to make an engine, you need to use nitroglycerin, it explodes at 670 degrees Celsius
