amphibious vehicle stuff

182 Waitwhatno  4.5 years ago

i got 2 questions
how to i make an amphibious float while stable
how to make it move while stable
wheels don’t propel vehicles in water, i tried a VTOL thruster but the thruster is making it go too fast and thus making it unstable

    @Waitwhatno use vtol engines and nozzles, engines above the water, nozzles below, more engines= more speed, weight, and fuel needed

    @JakeSnakeMate
    stability’s fixed

    a need for speed.

    For water propulsion, use either a VTOL thruster as you already are but with reduced power of VTOL engine, or a small jet on a rotator with reduced power. You can use Overload mod to edit engine power. Alternately, you can use a gyroscope for turning by setting speed and stability to zero and only having yaw power.

    @Waitwhatno you should check out my speed boat if you need anything else figured out, or search for boats.

    @JakeSnakeMate
    makes sense
    i was adding dead weight and buoyancy to the lower parts

    Add bouyancy at the top and dead weight at the bottom, gravity makes it stable. That is what i did with my vtol speed boat
