This is actually one of the better explanations of a gearbox on KZread. It is extraordinarily clear. I love how each gear on the shifter mechanism is marked with dice-dots. Nice touch!

@@TlalocTemporalNoo… Most automatic transmissions use hydraulics to apply multiple clutches simultaneously to achieve a single "gear". Through the use of multiple planetary gearsets an automatic transmission can achieve many gear ratios. The most common was a 3-4 speed up until the early/mid 2000s where 6 speeds became common. Most recently we're up to 8, 9, and 10 speed automatic gearboxes without much of an increase in package size.

​@@TlalocTemporal certified mechanic here, yes in short autos use hydraulic pressure from an internal oil pump to operate the gear shifts almost all automatics use hydraulics for changing gears, some rare cases may use air or electronics to change gears, but these are normally what one might call 'automatically controlled manual gearboxes' where they operate nearly identically to a manual gearbox just with a computer controlling the gear shifts, not to be confused with a DCT 'dual clutch transmission' which is like two gearboxes in one (two input shafts one for odd numbered gears, one for even, and the dual clutches operate each input separately allowing the engine to pre-select a gear and just switch the engaged clutch to change over input shafts) unlike those examples a auto is packed with clutches and uses the clutch packs to engage separate gear ratios and in fact in most cases will 'slip' the clutches of one gear while engaging another so the transition is smoother between gears, to accomplish this the gearbox has an oil pump and either electronically or (in very old cases) mechanically controlled valves to press the clutches in the clutch packs, hence why auto gearbox use a hydraulic grade oil as both a lubrication and for their hydraulics of course I'm not exactly an authority on all things gearbox related, and I could be heavily mistaken, I am after all a performance engine builder and not a gearbox builder, and 99% of my work is too build a engine for a manual gearbox (and that 1% normally has prebuilt gearbox sitting, I just have to mount it) so if someone wants to correct me on something be my guest

I know I am a little bit late, but don´t give up, once I had the same problems, but now I am flying my own planes to orbit and back multiple times without refueling. Ok this spesific plane is rather a hypersonic cruise missile than a plane and it won´t land fully fueled, well at least it won´t be much left of it afterwards and even with 2/3 of it´s fuel remaining it tuches down at about 220 m/s. Oh and it would stall below mach 1, but a stall needs lifting surfaces. That is the only way to reach an angle of attack of 25 degrees wich is necessary for landing the crus... ähh, plane. Here at ApolloAerospace, we build our crafts so ludicrous that no rapit unscedueled disassembly is brave enough to come even close.

Jörge, the learning curve is the fun thing about KSP. While you're learning to fly planes, keep laughing about your mistakes and if necessary use this to cheer yourself up: for the first two weeks of playing KSP, I had no clue what the SAS is (or rather that there is something like SAS) or that there are symmetry settings when building stuff. Things were more fun back then...

Dude, I got a midterm on Manual Transmissions this weekend and this is the best visual representation of the basic principals I’ve seen. In a spaceflight simulator...

I finally actually understand gearboxes. I had most of the principles down. Big gear to small gear gets you high speed small gear to big gear gets you torque. But I never really got how all the mechanics came together. AMAZING!
