If your struggling with your aircraft climbing or pitching forward all the time, create an 'elevator trim' simply put a small control surface on the tail plane (it may vary on type of plane) and link it to a throttle lever. The throttle lever will set the trimmer and with a little experimentation will leave the aircraft flying level
Matt beaudoin haha, i got mine working its probably because of the center of mass and lift that are different on each plane so i just kept changing numbers in the pid untill it worked well, i had it go upside down at some point aswell, so keep changing the numbers in the pid and youll get it working aswell
@@jacksonpilarski8710 invert it, if it nosedives then make P lower, the higher the P value, the more aggresive it is, the D value helps to smooth it out and stops rocking up and down. Here is a general tip: when changing your altitude dont change it by more than 100, if you do it will likely break. To prevent that i have another system for when it is going at over a 12 degree angle up or down that will use another pid to go to the inverse of what it is doing already and that makes it stay between 12 and -12 degrees. That is using a tilt sensor btw. Also you can have another tilt sensor facing to the side and use a pid for roll, that way it stays perfectly level, really good for when you are yawing because yawing makes you roll slightly. for roll i used P: 5 I: 0 D: 1
In the latest update of Stormworks it seems that when I use PIDs to create altitude hold. Everything seems fine until I see the plane stalling... It doesn't maintain a nice steady constant vertical speed. It always accelerates. Help?
Jersey could you please make a tutorial on gps autopilot if you can if you could i will be really happy but i understand if you dont, but thanks for all the videos you make your the best at stormorks
a add might not work so well on its own; let's say PID gives -1 and you give +1 ... it gives 0. I'd put a threshold on your stick input; if it's non zero; you can disable the switchbox temporarily; when you release the stick the Autopilot reverts to controlling the plane
@@MrNJersey here's a timely reply, the read out says the pid keeps going into the negative no matter what input i give it so idk, guess i'll have to play around more and see what happens.

@@larsimann3032 dont need a gyro, make your own, its worth it, trust me. You need two tilt sensors and a little bit of logic, or just look in the stormworks workshop for premade ones
its called add some trim to it xD use a function block with x+0.01 or whatever to change it, when flying do alt+w or alt+s to add trim, it tells you the trim value so you put that in.

how do i set it? wont work for me
Make sure you set the throttle values from - 1 to 1.
You can also hold the (ALT) key to manually set trim on any aircraft :)
Can you make an updated version of this tutorial for 1.0?
works nice to make my plane do loops all the time
Got mine to stop looping by lowering numbers P=.001 I=.000001 D=5 but now it flies upside down :-)

plz do a gyro tutorial because my plane keeps doing barrel rolls
My plane Is doing BOING BOING with the elevators and it's really annoying
Try inverting the roll
@@PizzaPowerXYZ you should increase the damping coefficient of your pid, it helps!
@@waggel120 ooh thanks
this helps so much even if im making a turbo jet
thanx, i was able to convert this to an automatic heading device on my ship :)
Thx for lissinging when i asked you in the stream:-D
My plane is doing backflips
In the latest update of Stormworks it seems that when I use PIDs to create altitude hold. Everything seems fine until I see the plane stalling... It doesn't maintain a nice steady constant vertical speed. It always accelerates. Help?
when I set altitude hold on my plane shoots up stalls, and does loopty loops into the ocean...
Have you tried inverting the output?
It worked for me.
same
Same issue, inverting output doesn't help.
Glad I'm not the only one having this issue.
So, my plane just goes on circles, is there something am doing wrong?
MrNJersey i realy appreciate that tutoial💘💘💘❤❤
How do you connect gyro?
Thank you for your videos!
Do we have to use a PID Controller? Why can't we just connect the On Value in the switchbox to the keypad?
So, I did everything right like the tutorial I know that my plane is not level at, for example, 8000 feet, could you help me?
Works really well with gyro added in (auto hover on)
you know you dont need a pid, you could do it with just a + gate but it is less smooth
using this for my boat
my plane just constantly goes up , not holding the altitude at all , i set it to 50 and it goes way above that , can somebody help me ?
now it does random things , not even up then down then up then down ... just pure randomness , and it never does the same
im fricking lost
fuck it, it dosn't work im out
nice vid dude!
Jersey could you please make a tutorial on gps autopilot if you can if you could i will be really happy but i understand if you dont, but thanks for all the videos you make your the best at stormorks
How do I fix my plane from doing loops...
Nj, why did this break my who plane and make it roll when I never touched roll? You've been helpful but please help me fix!
My Keypad wont work so my plane Just levels out it doesnt go to the alt i want it to go
could you use a add ? so you can turn it on but still have controll?
a add might not work so well on its own; let's say PID gives -1 and you give +1 ... it gives 0. I'd put a threshold on your stick input; if it's non zero; you can disable the switchbox temporarily; when you release the stick the Autopilot reverts to controlling the plane
Any reason this wouldn't work with control surfaces? Or is it just broken in 1.0?
i know it is the same fore me
Please do a laser tutorial I am having trouble making a laser sensor detect a laser beacon on the ground and make it show on a screen.
nice jersey!
works for going down
4:30 - that is called 'flutter' real planes can suffer from it if you go too fast :)
My plane keeps either diving or rise, will never level at set altitude. I followed the guide so any idea whats causing this?
Try inverting the signal maybe
@@MrNJersey here's a timely reply, the read out says the pid keeps going into the negative no matter what input i give it so idk, guess i'll have to play around more and see what happens.
Inverting the pid number fixed the reverse problem.
Thank you!
when i try this the plane pitches straight down and does backflips
same
Same. We need a Gyro Scope tutorial from you.
Are your inputs reversed?

Nice video 👍 .
I need help with gyro
i tried this but it would overshoot it every time because it doesnt slowy change it snaps
Hey can you explain me how to make a boat fast like i added4 engines 2 medium 2 small but can i do that without adding engines ?
Initialy i had 2 medium ( aircraft one's ) and i added 4 more to have speed.
@@secretgaming5739 gearbox? dont make the ratio too extreme or the engines will stall, if you have temperature control on it then make the rps higher
you can raise the rps of the engine in config
(this will make the engine run hotter though)
will it work if there's another gyro as well?
does this need a gyro?
Can you remaster this? It no longer works.
how do i make a stabilizer?
finally. thanks
Why did you add scary music?
My gyro doesnt work on oits own, and this makes it worse.
my pitch starts moving even tho its off????
its called add some trim to it xD use a function block with x+0.01 or whatever to change it, when flying do alt+w or alt+s to add trim, it tells you the trim value so you put that in.
How to make a plane with gyro please
Hey there
Why the ominous music?
Nice :)
some stormworks app might not contain alt hold
Umm my plane just makes WOOOSH WOOOoSH if its reached the alt?
my plane keeps doing a loop and crashes
This dosent work my plane just pitch down and crash
The only problem I have is that the plane like bounces in the air
same, you ever find a fix?
@@ApatheticBeaver I haven’t
WHY IS MY PLANE BY CLICKING ON THE HOLD ALTITUDE AT ANY VALUE STARTS GOING UP
did you figure out why?`mine does the same
because you have to invert the pitch but only for the pid switchbox connection
@@sgtnseven3415 How would I invert it?
@@en_erik6429 numerical invert logic thing or a function block with x*-1
Fourth
And this advice was helpful thanks :)
Dued what about jet planes
should work
doesn't work for me :(
It just does nothing for me?
didnt work with any of mine... lets try my supersonic jet...
Fail, this has now official not worked on any airplane
@@LukeRen-rl4yv Yea you shouldn't try it cause he doesn't even tell you what to do he just makes you watch him move logic around without telling you
Mine dosent work at all
IF IT DOES LOOPS INVERT THE SIGNAL
can you go slower its hard for me and i am still confused
its sad to know this doesnt work anymore
2:15
Moreee
this auto pitch is brock it dose not work
It dose not work now
Noice
Doesn't work
turtrial is broken af
Doesnt Work it always goes to infinite looping and i have done all what you said
Edit your PID with better values
MrNJersey i did but in what numbers? From 0.1 to 1 or 0.6 or what they must look like on a bomber
This doesn't even work
First
third
thanks for wasting my time i dont even have 2 sets of pitch or roll controlls
Thats called a gyro
Dat plane is hideous
Thank you!
