what happens if you hugely overclock the motor for a propeller plane or for a car? how fast could you make it go? could the car do a new land speed record?
Or make it a lot faster on the downstroke than on the upstroke. Since aero forces scale as v^2, that'd make the downstroke generate a larger impulse than the upstroke.
@@zuthalsoraniz6764 ok so for you it either my solution to generate force on both stroke or your solution of generating force on one stroke then somewhat canceling part of that stroke on the second one, not to mention that as the vehicle speed increases the force cancellation will increase too and the overall efficiency will decrease with reduced atmosphere
@@dimitar4y they didn’t patch that, a few weeks ago I sent a kerbal at incredibly high speed then eva’d them and they turned into a glitchy, sphaghettified mess

Doesn't work, game has a limit of 50 radians per second that cannot be exceeded (if even slightly exceeded by an unstable equilibrium things break and it cannot be exceeded at all in normal circumstances)
You know, I've seen things fly off out of the Kerbol system at ludicrous speed enough times, I want to know why it happens. More than that, I want to replicate it consistently. I want a Ludicrous Speed Drive, and I want to control it. This would call for science, but I'm lazy.
When I want warp speed I usually just build some long bendy thing with lots of wings, mk1 fusulages and enable invincibility and then I just use maxed object thrower on it and it usually does the trick
This... is amazing... I don't think there's something more perfect! *Also, if you went back to the KSC and loaded in a craft, I think you and the KSC should be underwater, if I am correct as I had a similar encounter before..*
What, you've never overclocked a piston to travel at 139,257,947 times the speed of light? It's a ton of fun! It takes about 6 1/2 hours to cross the Milky Way and it tends to collapse reality into a point singularity, but you can't have everything, right?
you must make a flapping mechanism that extends up, deploys parachutes, flaps down with them, retracts the parachutes, and so on. So your wingbeat would go downward with high drag, and low-drag when it would push you the wrong way~

But what happens if you make multiple pistons push against eachother, or make them "stretch" a joint or strut. What can you make if you deploy struts on them after launch?
So I haven't played KSP in a while and you're telling me there's pistons and overclocking and overclockable pistons and valves and other stuff??? Damn!

quick back of the hand calculations show that danny was traveling at about 158,000,000 c in that last test, or just over warp 9 for you Trek fans.

Whether through finesse or brute force, humanity would've always found a way to fly. The same is true for kerbals.
*observing a piston going brr*
Hmm.
REMEMBER: A Parachute is the only thing a piston on overclock can't be normal with.
It's also how you summon Cthulhu, without a spaghetti sacrifice.
The flapping is not too slow, you have to invert the lift direction on the way back so the pull is not canceling the push

A perfectly reasonable speed at which to travel.

Who needs Space-X when we have pistons!
True
I love the "Physics easing in progress" lol
If we ever stop having the need for "Epilepsy Warning", I am afraid the time has come where Danny has been kidnapped by the Kraken
Danny you always surprise me with your supreme ability of breaking ksp
piston realy just be out there travelling faster than light
Danny constantly finds new ways to either destroy the planet or create a warp drive and I'm all for it
The wings need to be angled up on the return stroke, it's just canceling out the lift. Something like that.

When adding those fins for flapping this was an actually idea for flying when it was becoming a thing in the early 1900 and did something very similar
Ah, the Warp 10 Piston, as Nostradamus predicted.
Only in KSP can you make a stick with some funny towels attached to it go at very fastfast speeds and launch you out of the solar system
Martincitopants:lots of hothot gas
Piston: *Defys the laws of physics for a split second*
Danny2462: "at first you had my curiosity, now you have my attention."
Danny always has to calculate his trajectory in units of C
Fun fact: you can toggle SRB's through right clicking on them and clicking "activate" or "shut down" or whatever it says there
You can also throttle them too with the kal-1000, just use their thrustlimiter or something
4:13 he achieved 2000c right there. kerbal warp program
2:53 Hey that's the curb your enthusiasm music!
Glad to see you're still breaking literally every law of physics you can

That's over *2,000 c*
This reminds me that car with a huge umbrella like thing on top trying to “fly”
Imagine what that looks like from a kerbal's perspective

Gigahertz speeds, Danny? You were exceeding the speed of light by nearly a dozen orders of magnitude. That's a bit beyond gigahertz.
Thank you Danny, for once again enabling me to OD on my daily dose of laughter!
Best interstellar propulsion system discovered
I just find the idea of someone forcing themselves into space really funny
This is like one of these Leonardo da Vinci "flying" machines

Aww, no kerbals were spaghettified in the making of this video.
I am interested in the application of this in fictional '60s Japanese racing cars.

You should make a spacecraft cannon with this glitch, if it can be done

Haven't played in ages but are there parts with drag in only one direction..? I really want to see a flapping saucer work!!
YES NEW VIDEO
Fun fact! Doing this on Eve would generate more extreme results
What if you set the wings up as the piston goes up.
and horizontal as the piston goes in.
I would wounder if you can flap like this
danny, you could make 10 of em, link em together and create the one true kraken!
Parachutes warps still work!!
Note to self: Parachutes + OC'd pistons = FTL drive, but is completely uncontrollable
If you overclock the spring/damper settings, could you safely lithobrake at high speeds?
you should try the pogo stick with overclocked force limit

Lol nice video. Kinda makes me think of DaVinci's ornathoptor and other flapping wing designs... 🤔
