Scifi/Engineless VTOL Basic Chassis Example Type-I

In 1 collection by jerryfanfan
Basic Chassis Examples
7 items
Description
A chassis for you to build your own scifi/antigravity vehicles.

Potential vehicle ideas for this chassis:
  • Star Wars Imperial Shuttle
  • Homeworld Deserts of Kharak Gaalsien Hoverships
  • Matrix Hovercraft

This configuration balances on four tilting "suspension pushers". It is suitable for small-medium vehicles, with the advantage being that it is quite stable, while the disadvantage being that each suspension pusher drive takes up a 5x5x3 volume of space, which will not fit on some tiny vehicles.

The highest tested vehicle mass for this configuration is 20,000 mass units, but maybe it can go higher.
Other chassis types coming later.

I've used this to power a craft and it rocks back and fourth until it flips, any ideas?

Hey I'm having an issue with the VTOL system in a creation i'm building. I've set up and wired the system but it doesn't really behave in the same way as your example even though I've used the selection tool to copy it over exactly. when I engage the hover function, it will rise gradually on it's own in a sawtooth/stair-step pattern right from the get go.

It also will flip if I go too hard with pitch/roll, which is another thing that isn't an issue with your example craft. I've spaced out the wheels correctly in relation to the center of mass so I'm not sure what is the issue. I've uploaded the WIP craft to the workshop if you'd be willing to take a look at it, I'd be really grateful: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2449153954

You need to get motor and some gearboxes to spin a wheel with High Speed Tire really fast, connected to a generator with about 0.65 clutch

how do i make the generator exactly
Jepster 29 Dec, 2020 @ 8:01am 
its sure is possible to do it with 2 wheels i got an prototype to work pretty good

For some reason I can't get it to fly with one wheel. smallest I can make it if with 2 wheels back to back, that way the wheels themselves only take up a 3x3 wide space.

is it possible to make one with one one wheel,like to make a working speederbike from starwars
