Hi, I have a favor to ask. Can someone with a PC create an ion engine that has a variable thrust input (meaning instead of throttle controlling, tie the thrust input to another variable)? Also, if you can boost the ion output to a max of about 2,000kN that would be awesome as well.

Here's an example for jet engines.

I've found that using ion engines for hovering looks super cool, but the stock engines are just not feasible.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help with this!

    Yeah that’s way too powerful... I found a 2,000 kN version that is perfect. :D

    @Gozinya Here is an extremely powerful version. It has enough power to lift your crafts (LOL)

    @Sflanker, I hate to ask you to do this again. Any chance you have something already made for this? It would be a lifesaver for my hover programs.

    @Gozinya You're right. I think you must just assign it to an AG

    How? I’m on iOS and I don’t see that option.

    I can’t change the amount of thrust, but I can tell you that you can choose which variable you want to use
