Today i’d like to introduce the Krispy charger™, a new way to overclock your stock props.

It works by using a series of Vernor engines to accellerate the rotation of the engine column 25% faster than what would be achievable by the engine otherwise. For example, the testbed here, levels off at around 80 m/s otherwise, but when the Krispy charger is turned on, it can accelerate to around 90 m/s before the fuel kicks out, and if you turn infinite fuel on, it pulls the plane up to around 101 m/s.

I am by no means a stock prop expert, but i’m fairly certain that this method has some utility for WEP on stock prop fighters or racers. The only limit i can think of is the extra weight added to the engine column by the fuel and engines, however if one were to put more powerful rocket engines or jet engines on the column instead of vernor engines im sure it could get even faster than turboprops.

I’d love to see you guys improve upon this concept and propogate it.

Also, first craft after the Rebranding :D i’ll still do cars from time to time so fret not, but there will also be some other goodies in the near future that are very much not cars
