Hoover Jets   posted: 05-Jul-06 15:46   »» 
I have scratchbuilt a new, improved version of the Hoover Jet originally built by Sabby. Here it is:

and the old (credit to Sabby)

and a comparison shot, turn wave speed to full and see the difference:

What do you think, guys?

XD kidness, you should see his army! its entirely made up of helecopters and VTOL craft! and also I have a light gunship.

right on, PM, I see the singular triangle point is much more effective. I've tried making a double-4pt-linear engine, but it's way weaker.

You start with 0,and then end with 4.

You got it?
If not,you allways can use a liner from the Motors account.

V2 now with 5pts and forward and reverse-turn! move the speed up to the 1st dot to reverse-turn and down to the second dot to go forward. big thanks to PM for the centralised mass design again!

Why doesn't my newest model Doesnt_fall_anymore have any comments?!
Go to the model showcase thread now!!

I noticed that the 4-mass central point jet flies better than the 5-mass central point jet.

So did I, and I think it's because an odd number is inherently unstable. A 6pt should work, or if not an 8pt.

Or maybe by adding masses on you make it too heavy to carry itself. In other words, with each "point" you add on, it's weight increases at a greater rate than it's lift, so maybe a 3pt might work better than a 4pt.

...just a theory, though....

nope, the 3pt hoover also loses power. I think that because of the unstable design lots of power is wasted in balance; therefore the even-pted hoovers work best.
