This challenge has already been on for a while now coming of and on. This is actually I think the third reboot of the hypersonic challenge? So yeah, I haven't been spending much time on KSP recently, moving onto other hobbies but I have certainly not quit yet! But I don't have the time right now to reboot the challenge again (as this one has lost a bit of attention) so for now, this CHALLENGE IS CLOSED. So posted craft wont be verified anymore or go into the leaderboard. I may do another reboot later on in the future but for now thats that. Congrats to those that submitted crafts and thanks for posting on this challenge!

@Kerminator1000 congrats, here is the 3000 M/S badge!http://

Can it take off and land vertically in one piece? Sorry for being so picky, but this is an important part of this class.

@Kerminator1000, I presume this is for the waverider class?

@Vinhero100, nice video! Here is your badge! http://

Yep!

Not cheating but the speed has to be taken from an altitude of under 50 km. That's just a little bit higher than that!

Yes because you don't actually need to land the plane to be qualified into the challenge. @KingDominoIII, here is your Badge! http://

Alright, sorry for not being active on the forum as I haven't playing KSP in a while, and started doing a LOT of flight simming (lol). Anyway here are the badges! @QuarkyGirl, awesome speed and here is your badge! :http:// @JorgeCS, here is the badge! http:// btw, that looks quite a bit like a D-21! http:// @Pds314, here is yours! Once again sorry for not monitoring this thread enough.

@*MajorTom*, here is your 3000 M/S badge!http:// And @I troll children online., you get the 4000M/S badge! http:// Congrats, everyone!

Test to failure my friend! Badges coming up soon too.

Sure!

Congratulations, here is your badge! http:// The leaderboard is now up!

For the Hermes staging is allowed but decouplers are not. You can probably find a way to get the drop tanks to drop of somehow.

By the way, do you mean that you will move the WSS to Minmus orbit? I would like it to stay in Kerbin orbit, and it is the World Space Station after all. I thought you would be building a seperate station, which I think would be an awesome idea.

Of the WSS? I have no idea

Yes, please, as that would allow a greater range of expansion to the station later on.

Well if you do not sue them I your station than I think it would be fine?

Well no, as that would mean everyone would need to use mods, and I want this to be a stock challenge.

Well that looks good and everyone starts small, but I would just practice docking if I were you and after your reasonably good at it try to build something bigger.

That is a very good idea.

If you want to land your craft nicely, first have a nice approach onto the runway, keeping your speed low. Just above stall speed is good. Then, just before touchdown, pull up on the elevator, making the plane pitch up. But due to your low airspeed you won't go up but merely slow your descent resulting in a gentle touchdown. Hope this helps!

Wow, thank you so much!

Alright since it's the weekend I'll build a docking station for shuttles. No time today unfortunately....

Pretty good with quite a few modules already!
