So, these things use ~11/12kRF/t

The TE3 Redstone Conduits conduct 10kRF/t, so how do I keep these guys full?

I have tried a way that works, but is stupidly exspensive for what it does.

I tried to place tesseracts on every single freaking engine, and that works, but those things are not very cheap for my mid-game resources.

Any ideas? A mod I can add that can boost the max RF/t the conduits can conduct...?
 
The redstone conduits transfer 10k per CONNECTION. the wire its self can hold unlimited as far as i know. Idk what you are powering but if you ad one more wire to another side of it (or another block if it is a multi-block) then the allowed power to that one block would be 20k for the 2 connections of the wire. same goes for power gen. a big reactor can make lots of power. say it makes 25k RF/T put 3 connections on it and you are good

Mekanism cables, and I think Ender IO cables might also work.

A Magnetostatic has one side it pulls power from. So a max of 10k RF for TE3 conduits.

Thanks! :)
I always have lots of rotarycraft questions haha.
...which makes sense. It's the most complicated mod out currently, as it's the most realistic. Ask questions, and who knows? Maybe you'll find one no one can answer, then you can find the answer and be the smart one!

BAHAHA.

I'm never the smart one.

I'm powering the magnetostatics which only have one input face.

You are well on your way to being one, though. You are asking questions. QED, you are smart, and one day, you will be the one people ask for answers.

So long as you ain't the dumbest one, you will be fine.

People forget the middle grounders sometimes. We only seem to pay attention to the very best but also more equally the very worst.

Also as people said to transport that kind of power you may need to look outside of TE for a proper conduit Ender IO has a top tier conduit that can transport 50k IIRC not sure of the exact number but I know it's higher then TE redstone conduits. You could also plop a resonant cell to the engine and hook all it's sides with conduit? But that's just as expensive.

Funny enough, I was actually going to do an indepth tutorial on rotarycraft today. Nobody has really gone through PROGRESSION of RotaryCraft, just things like, "Hey, this machine does this... Moving on."

Then I remembered, I don't know anything about RotaryCraft :S

Checkout Ausyarr on youtube. He has a lets play involving rotary craft.

Ender energy conduits are more like ~20k, still way higher than the limit for TE conduits.

Once you have a way to make ender pearls, they're dirt cheap too. And let's face it, if you are working with machines producing more power than TE conduits can handle, you have a bit of infrastructure behind you ;)
