Just a heads up: I moved recently, so the audio is a little rougher than usual, but it should be good to go next week. For some reason this engine is inspiring me to make a helicopter.

there's nothing more fun than watching someone learn through experience, even after knowing it from the books inside and out

It's not an engine, but you could always try an orion drive. It'd probably be simpler than any normal project, and might not be too interesting, but it does include explosions.

"A triangular.... Piston for lack of a better work". There is a better word, it's called a rotor

This has to be one of the best besiege building videos ever made, you cover the whole process, it’s so refreshing!

“Piston: for lack of a better word” Rotors: “Am I a joke to you?”

YES! exactly the type of video i wanted. looking forward to more combustion engine besiege vids!

Ahhh, I love the Wankel! Such a beautiful design, and one of the coolest sounding engines of all time imo. Some people love the high pitched whine of the F1 engines of the 80s, while others love the growl of the V8 muscle cars of the 60s and 70s, and some people (like myself) love the wonderfully unique sound of the Wankel Engine. Particularly those found in a classic Mazda RX-7! Great job replicating it here. Too bad it can’t replicate the sound too, but that’d be asking too much.

Am I delusional or are you actually seeing and taking in consideration my comments? Ultimate test for this: get the precision physics mod, it helps engines and complicated mechanisms a lot!

Understood nothing but kept me entertained through out the whole video Great work

Hello I just wanna say your videos are great, I've seen a ton of Besiege, Poly Bridge, KSP, and Scrap Mechanic gameplay, but there are *very few* people on youtube with the engineering smarts to make half the stuff you make. Kerbal Space Program is maybe an exception, there are some really great KSP youtubers like Scott Manley. Anyway thanks for making such quality content! Your innovations are genuinely inspiring.

Rotary engines were cool. Sadly, the last rotary powered car was the RX-8 from Mazda and was discontinued back in 2011. They were very rev happy and produced way more power with very small displacement, however reliability issues were also becoming a problem. Rip rotary engines.

Aaaaaah you do such cool ideas!

i found this channel and i love it

YOUR VIDEOS ARE SO AMAZING

Even though this video has less views than others I still love your content. Keep it up

"IMMA TELL YOU ANYWAYS" -brian, RCR

hey just fyi, the “piston” in a wankel engine is actually called a rotor

Dude, this sandbox is SICK! What a great time to be alive!

that´s some serious engineering well done

"piston for lack of a better word". That word is rotor.

This needs more views, nice work

This channel is awesome

I think that part of the way this works is that the triangle is a Roleaux triangle, which is unique because the "diameter" is the same all the way around, like a circle.

Congratulations! You made a vehicle in Besiege! Seriously though. This was pretty cool.

As beautiful as it is pointless XD Great job!

Fact: That's a freaking Reuleaux Triangle, created by either equally intersecting 3 circles, or drawing a circle curve with a compass, having the pivot point being the 3 corners, the radius of the circle curves being the length of the triangle edges, and the curves start and end at the two other corners. It's easier done than said.

You should convert the plane you made a while back into a bomber, something like a He 111 or DH 98.

good ol rotary engine power and rotary engine reliability there!

The madman actually did it

If you're up to weird engines, you could try Atkinson cycle ones, used in some hybrid cars

I'am still supirsed how this guy knows how to make this stuff

the new RX9 is looking hot

YESS THE WANKEL YOU CINALY DID IT YAYYYY!!

Good job

this seems like the most convoluted way to make an engine

bet this is gonna blow up!

Start with a triangle. Take one corner as middlepoint of a circle, corner A, and let the circle be exactly big enough to hit the other 2 corners. Remove 2/3 of the circle keeping the 1/3 opposing corner A. Thats the exact round edge u need on every edge of the triangle for the shape

OMG finding this for me was like finding gold

Reid captain is one of the best people in these types of games lol

I know greatness when I see it.

I love your vids

A H16 engine from the old formula 1 cars would be interesting to see.

Ur so cool. I love your videos

In the car world, we call that 'piston' a rotor.

Yaaay my favorite the 13b or rotary in MY FAV CAR THE RX7!

This game is made out of literal vibranium.

You could look at liquid pistons rotory engine. It is a similar idea to the Wankel but has 3 combustion areas that all are out of phase

can hear the 787B coming through

That was dope

As a sort of "tradition" on the channel, it has to be also made boom-boom powered

Haha the title says wankle, that's a weird word

So deamn cool!

Dorito power , i haven't watched yet but fully expect it to blow a apex seal.

not sure if this was already mentioned in the video, but this entire thing could be simplified if the middle triangle was replaced with a windmill/spiked wheel shape.

Take a shot after every time “ring gear” is said

I dont know who the hell wankel is but i am fully invested

10:45 no it's not normal. On a real wankel engine, the Rotor touches the housing continously. The Animation from Wikipedia uses a Reuleaux-Triangle as the Rotor shape, which is only an approximation of the correct shape, which is the inner envelope of a peritrochoid curve. The housing is defined by an Epitrochoid curve. Those two shapes mesh perfectly when they are defined by the same parameters.

all the issues you have in replicating a brapper in the game are what engineers have to deal with irl

Rotary engines are actually known for not sealing well, thus they consume more oil and have pretty bad emissions.

@QuakeGamerROTMG

2 жыл бұрын

They consume oil because the surface where the rotor touches the housing needs to be lubricated. But that is of course where combustion happens so oil gets injected in and burned off with the fuel.

about the description; rotary powered planes would be actually sick, since rotaries can rev up to around 10,000 RPM when taken decent care of
