frame motor airship problem

[mr_engino]

recently, i tried to build an airship using the 'inchworm' frame motor design. i put the motors in a four way 'cross' design; it didn't work. what the hell did i do wrong?

[disconsented]

How the fuck are we meant to know what went wrong from that?

Well, couple things to check here. Does the motion dive work on it's own? Try disconnecting it from the rest of the ship. If it works, it's not your drive, it's one of two things:

One: frame motors cannot move more than 1000 blocks. This includes wires, pipes ect.

Two: you have a solid block somewhere causing it to get caught.

Also, a bit more info would be nice as well.

If the problem ends up being the frame limitation, you can change that in your config file I believe.
