Love the content. Thanks for the breakdown. I had no clue the ion thrusters were affected by gravity, not atmosphere. Definitely explains my recent moon crash.
I agree with your math, but you didnt take the different gravities into account... Ex: The Earth planets' gravity lets 1 Newton moves 0.980665Kg; not 1:1. It's a marginal difference, unless you deal in Mega Newtons, which we do. It could throw off calculations a wee bit.
Cool video with loads of useful info, however, I disagree on the ion thrusters, they are mostly affected by atmosphere, so if you have an ion ship that works on the moon, it will struggle a lot on europa since europa has the same gravity but it has atmosphere as well. Personally experienced it when I thought my Moon Ion miner would be enough and it couldn't support it's own weight on europa when both bodies have 0.25 p-gravity.Other than that, a ton of usefull info thanx a bunch for making a decent explanatory yet not too long and boring video on this topic.
if im building a one all be all ship ill put a little bit of every type of thruster but i put more hydrogen thrusters but i use the other thrusters for support for efficiency

Thanks for the info. Been playing for about a year. Never thought to max over ride a thruster.

Is there some way you can boost the audio volume? It's really balanced but I always have to turn my volume to 100% to hear anything. Thx
Made a mistake in post editing. I need a new mic to get rid of distortion. Hence the low volume. Working on it tho.
Thanks man been building a large dreadnaught that i wanted yo make hydrogen space/atmo capable this helped a lot

Doesnt all this change on alien planet?
fuel costs would change. because of gravity. but the production and output of hydrogen would remain the same.
You'll simply need more fuel and thrusters.
Your volume is way too low
I Keen servermate tells me he thinks the number of thrusters alters the total efficiency...somehow.
Having really big ships affects this as well monitoring all of the components.
Americans be so confused
“whaaat it’s divided by an even divisible number of 10 ?!!!?”
lol
Too quite.
