Note: What is actually built is the Stator. The rotor needs to be built separately after the stator is completed.

Space Engineers - Advanced Rotor Settings

The Rotor is a powered block that has ability to rotate one of its sides.

Controls

A rotor may be configured with the following options:

Motor cotrols interface

Title	Upper limit	Lower limit	Description
Torque	0 Nm	33.6 MNm	Strength of the rotor, how fast it will accelerate; applied when the rotor is turned on
Braking torque	0 Nm	33.6 MNm	Braking strength of the rotor, how fast it will stop; applied when the rotor is turned off
Velocity	-30 rpm	30 rpm	Target velocity of the rotor; rotor will accelerate until target velocity is reached
Lower limit	unlimited	360°	Lower angular limit
Upper limit	-360°	unlimited	Upper angular limit

These settings can be used in order to create different functions with the rotors such as building gates.
