- Kerbal Space Program 2 is finally here, this time we have to create the world's widest airplane! It was harder than expected, but nothing the UK Space Agency can't solve- even if it did defy physics and break reality!

#realcivilengineer #engineering #ksp2 - เกม
Anyone else actually really interested in seeing RCE attempting to do a serious KSP2 series in which he builds space stations, moon bases and so on? So much engineering potential!
That's cause he's not a real engineer
Yes...but at the same time a silly playthrough would be just as fun.
Another Matt has those videos covered 😅
@@RealCivilEngineerGaming who?... Still be interesting to see you do it
Edit:Thanks, I've got the answer: Matt Lowne
Great video btw
@@clashhoyland9583 @mattlowne
A civil engineer trying aeronautical engineering is like an architect trying civil engineering.
So true lol
When I was in college my aerospace friends always told me they could make a brick fly if it has enough thrust.
I think even dirt doctors can understand that.
As proven in this video!
@@Peter_Morris as an Aerospace Major i can confirm this: Attach to plane.
The latter sounds a lot like North American infrastructure.
youtube suggest the content and then these youtubers just turn into whatever is popular at the time. they all do it now
Matt: “We need flaps” - Goes and doubles engines, still no flaps 😁😁 Love it!
Don't worry, he just made his wings into flaps lmao
I was losing my sh** when that was happening...
Fun fact: Kerbals in KSP1, and probably KSP2, have stats! They determine how brave, or how dumb your kerbals look in the camera view. Rarely, Kerbals spawn as "badasses", who are *always* having a blast, and Jeb is always a badass.
You can move the camera in the VAB by holding the middle house button or focus on a part with the middle mouse button :)
Lol my dude really didn't take 3 seconds to google how to pan camera in KSP 2
Matt: "let's not be silly"
Also matt: makes the wings bigger than the whole plane a few seconds later.
Classic Matt over engineering skills 🤣
@@captaindelta43 Why engineer anything if you're not gonna OVER engineer it!
That's not silly, an infinitely wide wing would have 100% efficiency.
RCE: *does the Bridge Challenge*
Also RCE: NO BRIDGE REVIEW!?!?
Probably because that bridge is not a True Bridge, but a product of architecture.
@@herrdoktorjohan That doesn't mean RCE shouldn't review the bridge, only that it should score 1.0 at most.
Well, to be fair, he did also smash into the bridge with a jet. Can't have a bridge review on a bridge that has gone through a brief but violent period of rapid unplanned disassembly.
IKR!!!
How does an engineer totally neglect elevators on a plane?
I'm honestly surprised he got into the air without them lol. I thought as soon as it took off it was just gonna do a backflip
he's a civil engineer, not an aeronautical one
Wonder if/when he moves to helicopters how many attempts or videos it'll take before he discovers tail rotors are a thing?
@@David-qi1ys watch his trail makers videos😂
They were already built in the wings
The fact that he didnt see that the nose cone is sideways made me die lmao
Jeb died because Jeb pulled in excess of 15 g's. Jeb is now a very meaty pancake/soup.
Can we reasonably describe a plant-based lifeform as "meaty?" Maybe a cellulosey pancake/soup? lol
Either way, thank Kraken that kerbals can recorporeate over a relatively brief period of self-repair.
@@ledumpsterfire6474 The important part, regardless of consistency, is that Jeb became soup. But yes, it's a good thing he was mostly contained soup. He probably got back up faster that way.
@@ledumpsterfire6474 has anything been released saying they're plant based? I didn't know if there had been
@@ThirdInLine That's the running fan theory, but I don't think it's ever actually been confirmed one way or the other. They're green and they don't seem to need food to survive though, which could very plausibly suggest photosynthesizing chloroplasts and chlorophyll lol
Jeb was reduced to a soup-like homogenate
“It’s a bird. It’s a plane. No, it’s… RCE’s aeronautical engineering skills.”
damage 💀
It got off the ground?
I love that Civil doesn't spell out acronyms, he just sounds them out.
One of these days a young scientist with proper science and engineering masterclass knowledge will see these KSP videos from RCE and question his sanity while having a laugh about ,seeing the great banter and efficient engineering skills from Matt .
4am and watching RCE and kerbals having unfortunate incidents is a perfect way to wake up and annoy the people you live with by laughing so hard
Australia issues
@@hamisheast-wuillemin3757 unfortunately
another shrimp on the barbie
In my time zone it's 6pm and it is a perfect way to unwind after work.
@Al that's just upsetting and enraging to some of us when you say that to an Australian. It's become something that some people will just get violent over when foreigners say that to them. We don't have "shrimp" here. It's just called prawns and most of the time we don'treally grill or BBQ them unless they're "green" (raw) with shell on . We've heard that enough and are sick of it. We even ran advertisements that I believe ran worldwide sometime in the 2010's to correct that phrase.
Paul hogan did that as a campaign stunt for Americans to visit Australia for tourism. It was effective due to his status as a movie star with crocodile Dundee, making him famous worldwide and Americans back then being uncultured and not really travelling outside of the states for holidays.
I love every "UK Space Agency" music interlude Matt puts in his video.
The cuts to the zoomed in view of Jebs face shaking back and forth make me laugh everytime
*VAB Camera controls:*
Right click rotates the camera about the focused part.
Middle mouse click on another part to change the center of focus.
Middle mouse held on the background lets you translate the camera vertically.
Scroll wheel to zoom.
Annoying that they changed it from ksp1
There is a way to make it even wider, if you turn the plane 90 degrees in the VAB you get more length allowance. Only drawback is you have to turn it on the runway.
You can move your camera by pressing mouse wheel. Also alt and different mouse keys change camera. Also helps with the tailpiece, to look at the ship from 45 degrees from front, then turn the tailpiece to face the end, and hover mouse to the tail, it finds nearest attach point intself and voila!
Matt: has an engineering degree
Also matt: doesn't understand the fundamentals of aircrafts
He's a civil engineer, their stuff isn't supposed to move.
It keeps looking more and more like a U-2 and I’m absolutely loving that
Seeing a jet get up to speed then pitch up for an extremely vertical climb is one of the coolest things ever
Coming up with the idea of wireless wings is such an architect thing... but only an engineer could make it happen.
New drinking challenge: take a drink every time Matt says "UK Space Agency" and Rule Britannia plays
Your wings would flap less if you used turned up fins on the tips to combat the eddy currents generated at the edge. Like modern airliners and eagles have.
Sure you can go wider. Make the wings super small during attachment and stack like 10 per side and increase the size afterwards
RCE building a plane without horizontal stabilizers but then converting it to a flying wing design. pure win!
4:46 "wings back out..." Number one pilot. :D
Also you should use SAS and turn your wing flaps down in force. It overcorrects and your vehicle is fighting itself.
To be fair, it is not very hard to break reality in KSP2 at the moment
And when the world needed him most... Danny was replaced by an architect.
@6:54 Dude, you added intakes at angles that don't actually intake just so that you could get the color scheme you wanted...
This is the DEFINITION of behaving like an ARCHITECT!!!!!!!
The nightmare plane... wondering what it looks like on the inside of the wings and dry bays. The drunk spider on speed trying to make a web
Hi rce just wanted to tell you I love ur videos and your the enginering goat
I'm wondering if you can make a single stage Plane -> Space using a dual setup.
(Think SABRE engines. You know, that UK space program?)
Single stage to orbit is one of the most beloved builds in ksp, it's harder in ksp2 due to the fuel differences(the rapier engine which is basically the saber is very inefficient in space so for anything beyond LKO it's not really effective)
If you select the button just left of the colour button and double click a part the camera will focus on that part. However there is a bug where trying to move a part does nothing so you have to click on the button left of the last button I told you about (the one left of the colour button) and then click on the button at the far left of that toolbar, from my experience this usually helps.
You can also double click any part when flying to focus on it.
4:45 remember to always drive on wings and fly with wheels
8:57 RCE just built the U-2 spy plane
I need to see Matt try and “colonize” a planet in KSP. That would be awesome. Maybe try and bring everything all in one trip.
@@jamesgames128 lol
VAB cam was driving me crazy! Middle mouse button on a part to switch the focus - it's a game changer!
RCE's interaction with his editors is always so dang funny. I love it
Love you RCE
Love you Michael
@BuilderMAN who is Michael?
@@huskiesarecool1274 Michael is me
Hi Arsey-E love the content
just love the nose cone on sideways, and the tail fins you mentioned were missing... but never put on lol.
I really do like how your airplane is flapping its wings like a bird. It knows what it is.
How are you everyone? Hope your doing well. Remember, no matter what any one says, you are special, and there is always some thing you are good at. Enjoy your day

I'm pretty sure everything Matt does in KSP breaks reality. As he is wont to do in most games.
"Wings definitely taking off, body... Not so much"
11:44 Middle mouse single click on a part when it is highlighted green and that becomes the new center of where the rotation is. The camera is great.
Chat be like: DAY 999999999999999999 OF ASKING RCE TO PLAY SOME RANDOM VIDEO GAME
Play spaceflight simulator is good
A nose heavy plane flies poorly
A tail heavy plane flies once
That nose cone shouldn't have made me laugh as much as it did.
Day 36 of asking Matt to play SpaceFlight Simulator.
It’s actually a really good free game
@@neto8116 ain't free on pc
@@luckyteapot phone emulator *exists*
Yeeees
I’m with you bud
@11:45 You can click MMB to center the camera on a part in the VAB.
There are methane-only tanks.
Typically you want the center of lift slightly behind the center of mass for stability.
For better pitch control you need control surfaces far away from the center of mass, like tailfins (more torque).
ehy RCE, just a heads up, the rear wheels needs to be a smidge foreward of the center of lift to be able to use them as pivoting points for rotation, that's any kind mechanical pitch that relies on the gemetry of the plane rather than sheer power from the engines.
AND, more importantly, ideally planes should have both center of mass and lift in the same point, that's why they have fuel pumps that move fuel around to balance the craft, but in KSP you want you lift right behind the center of mass.
Remember, a plane with a center of lift behing the center of mass flies bad, a plane with the center of mass behind the center of lift fliues once.
2:19
"Piloting skills! Piloting skills!"
_9/11 reenactment_
Matt you can change where your camera is positioned in the VAB by middle mouse clicking on the part you want to be at the centre of your screen.
16:06 don’t think anyone mentioned this yet, but there is a known issue where multiple engines pulling fuel from the same fuel source causes major FPS loss. So, 40 engines on the single fuel tank row in the middle is what’s causing the FPS drop. You can fix it by having a single fuel source for each engine.
Now, for kerbal space program, instead of a bridge review, its a payload review (its what the ship carries)
I've only been watching you a short time, but I've been enjoying your videos a lot. Keep up the great work RCE
I love this guy's content too much I actually cheered when I saw the blue air vents
Tim Allen would approve of your design philosophy. Plane not getting off the ground? Add MORE POWER, and make it BIGGER! *Manly grunting and chest thumping*
Loved the video @Real Civil Engineer! Can't wait for the next video man! You've got my "Actual Jet Aircraft from the Military Forces around the World" Challenge and my "Actual Warship from the Military Forces around the World" Challenge for KSP to try if you want a Challenge man!
Fun fact: flying vehicles which work via flapping their wings like a bird are known as ornithopters!
It's crazy to see you at 1.6 Mil subs! I remember when you reached 10k at the very beginning and to see you reach that in 2/3 years is mental! Nice work!
20:08 Pimp my Ride the video game changed a lot ! 😂
Matt there's a way to get custom flags in KSP2. So you can put the UK flag in it. Matt Lowne made a good video for it.
"Why did Jeb died?"
5sec before +15g
Looks like you forgot the tail wing things. I believe they are called "elevators", since they control the elevation of the plain.
They control the pitch. (whether the nose points up or down)
Usually installed on the tail, they work by pushing the tail down or up, rotating the aircraft around it's center of mass. So essentially, to point the nose of the airplane up, you push the tail down.
@@heygek2769 that's what I ment by controlling the elevation. You make the plain go up by pointing it's nose up. Thanks for specifiying.
BTW they are called "elevators", right?
Whenever this man drops a KSP vid i need to watch it. Keep em coming man!!
to increase the wing width further, you could attach the large wings, make them small and attach more on the outside and make them small again and then from the outside inwards make the wings as large as you can
3:01 Scott Manly's blessing
"Look in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane!"
RCE: Nah it's both.
Wish they'd make an animated series with Jebbediah as the star. He wouldn't even need to speak and I'd watch it. They're so cool, would love to experiment.. I mean "meet" them.
"What's that wheel doing?"
Surviving the crash, that's what.
I think the colors would’ve looked better if you kept the white and red for the body but make the wings full blue, as you can change the color of specific parts
But great video!
that actually looked really cool with the seperated wing. fore runner technology in the making
you are absolutely killing it with these videos. i know KSP2 has been getting some hate, but damn if these arn't great vids! keep it up!
Love these kernal space program videos another idea should be to make the fastest plane you can 💕
The tail fin being ignored makes me livid lmao
8:22 the CoL (center of lift) should be a little bit behind the CoM (center of mass) that is why you flipped because of science
It's like the detached nacelles in Star Trek Discovery. They're part of the ship, even if they aren't actually screwed on.
I think you need to do a rotating strongest shape. A helicopter as sorts, spinning fast enough with wings to go take off
Yes! More KSP2! We love it 😍
“We don’t actually need air then” got me
Matt's Next challenge should be actually making it to another planet with a bridge as a payload
Real civil engineer: *Kills a poor gentleman*
Also Real civil engineer: For the UK SPACE PROGRAM!
*Rule Britannia plays*
When it started taking off (wings and body separately), and he clicks "SAS on" in hopes of saving it, I lost it.
You can change the center of rotation of the camera in the VAB by Middle Mouse on the part you want to center
also there are specific Methane Fuel Tanks where you get more Fuel per Tank while not needing to care about the oxidizer
He is the Definiton of "Top 10 Planes you wont believe exist"
That sideways nose cone. 😂
this man literally never adds elevators to the tails of his planes and wonders why theyre so unstable 🤣
14:23: Realizes he doesn't have elevators on the tail
Rest of video: Does not add elevators
Yeah he has problems with elevators. Not the first time he's forgotten them. Lol
It hurt my brain
Make the wing really short, and keep stacking wings next to it. Then expand the end wing to max, and continue down the wings until the last one. Open editor and launch. Idk if this'll work, but that's how, I assume, you can make the wingspan way larger
Petition for Matt Lowne to collaborate with RCE. It'll be the joining of the Matts.
Elevators? No, I think we just need BIGGER WINGS
7:15 he made a thinner "stealth bomber" that stands out , that must be a feat of enginnering !
You know that picture of Jeb at the beginning, close-up and surrounded by red lights? It's the "Daisy, Daisy" scene from 2001 A Space Odyssey!
23:32 my man was using Bluetooth wings 😂
Him just not adding the horizontal stabilizers made me want to yell at my phone lol
