L44[11:47:12] <packbart> I rarely use these engines but I remember that thei CoM is offset far from the part because it's supposed to have a long hidden turbine
L45[11:47:56] <darsie> .
L46[11:49:01] <darsie> In the front is a compressor, then comes the combustion chamber, then the turbine.
L47[11:49:42] <packbart> the part only models the nozzle, though, does it?
L48[11:49:51] <darsie> idk
L49[11:49:57] <darsie> Haven't looked inside.

L116[19:25:45] <darsie> :)
L117[19:25:50] <Massimilla> Hello there
L118[19:26:28] <darsie> I circumnavigated Kerbin in 44 minutes with this shocking airplane: http://0x0.st/HzBc.png
L119[19:28:05] <packbart> just a Rapier on a shock cone?
L120[19:28:10] <darsie> kinda
L121[19:28:21] <darsie> There's a half full fuel tank, too.
L122[19:28:50] <darsie> In the cargo bay is a battery, an okto2 and a small RW.
L123[19:29:41] <darsie> small control surfaces, too.
L124[19:30:12] <darsie> A structural tube for balance.
L125[19:31:30] <darsie> I braked by pulling up and rolling.
L126[19:31:38] <FLHerne> Does that have enough fuel?!
L127[19:31:42] <darsie> yes
L128[19:31:44] <darsie> 200
L129[19:31:57] <darsie> Doesn't need much at 25 km.
L130[19:32:12] <FLHerne> I'm surprised, Rapiers seem pretty hungry normally
L131[19:32:17] <FLHerne> hm
L132[19:32:31] <Massimilla> Rapiers are much more efficient for high-altitude aircrafts
L133[19:32:34] <darsie> 0.02 LF/s
L134[19:32:40] <SporkWitch> i only used them on one flight, but they definitely devoured fuel, even in air-breathing mode
L135[19:33:32] <darsie> I stayed subsonic at low altitudes.
L136[19:35:45] <darsie> This one is called fast 3. 1720 m/s cruise speed.
L137[19:36:24] <darsie> There's significant centripetal force.
L138[19:41:29] <darsie> Can we see how much air we have?
L139[19:43:26] <darsie> If you don't fly high enough when going fast, the shock cone can explode.
L140[19:44:24] <darsie> Or maybe it's because you can fly faster when there's a bit more air.

L142[19:47:15] <packbart> you might just exceed its temperature rating
L143[19:47:28] <darsie> exactly
L144[19:47:45] <packbart> so, put a heatshield in front of it ;)
L145[19:47:50] <darsie> hehe
L146[19:48:04] <darsie> I tried a radiator, but then realized I jsut need to go higher.
L147[19:48:35] <darsie> Maybe I could be faster with a radiator and going a bit lower.
L148[19:49:47] <X> I always thought you can go faster higher up.... is it a lack of air for the intake that makes you faster lower?
L149[19:50:14] <raptop> some sort of tradeoff in terms of intake air, speed, and drag
L150[19:50:15] <packbart> the engines lose thrust above a certain altitude, too
L151[19:50:25] <darsie> It's more air that makes you go faster.
L152[19:50:34] <darsie> Because your enigen gets more thrust.
L153[19:50:36] <raptop> uh, at least for the subsonic engines, thrust is greatest at sea level
L154[19:50:48] <raptop> though yeah, there's also the velocity curve
L155[19:52:26] <darsie> X: Deep down in the atmosphere drag dominates.
L156[19:53:01] <darsie> But you get most thrust there. And most fuel consumption.
L157[19:53:29] <darsie> Enough thrust for VTOL.
