Flying Formula One! | Kerbal Space Program

Jebediah got bored with rockets and spaceplanes. So he decided to make a car! But he still couldn't let go of flying...

As usual, the build you see in the video is original without any first drafts beforehand. Which might make it a little more dangerous for the pilots...

him: builds a frickin car and it flies perfectly
me: trying to build a normal looking plane without it spinning in circles in the air.

I don't know what, but something about this makes me extremely happy.

Not so much downforce - more like upforce

[ZenothGaming]

and jebediah is absolutely flying thru the pack!

You gotta disable steering for the back wheels if you want to turn at speed without spinning out.

4:29 don't try doing donuts in your jet powered formula one car at home. Do it in your local Walmart parking lot!

You are one of the next-gen KSP players, like Nexter was back in those days. Just be who you are and keep going! 👍

your wings are oriented normally like a plane, on f1 cars the wings are upside down to produce negative lift which is refered to as downforce. all you have to do to make the car not fly is rotate the wings a bit. I also saw some comments ( @Acid Quotient ) referencing the flipping meredes car that incident was cuased by having to short a wheelbase which allowed the cars front end to rise too much, essentially flipping the direction of the froont wings as well as allowing more air under the car increasing pressure relative to the top of the car and making more lift. ironically the wheelbase was shortened to allow for bigger aero elements which had the suspension worked as intended would have produced more downforce. that shouldn't be a probem in ksp though as the suspension has very little give if any at all.

Jebediah Kerman is a visionary, a kerbal ahead of it's time!

Sometimes, KSP phisics are weird at the point that a Formula 1 car can fly._.

2:29 box box box, you’ve lost the front wing, we need to replace it.

Lol just imagine sending a Red Bull F1 to the moon XD

[greggv]

Why didn't you lock the steering on the rear wheels?

[ugurkocadag]

tip: make it incerase traction as the main throttle goes up (set traction limit to main throttle)

One question: how do you make parts bigger

[jantvrdy]

Great video, but the outro music has been stuck in my head for a while. What's its name, if I may ask ?
