  1. This could be many issues, but in your case it’s likely too few control surfaces/too little lift. Images of the craft always help!
  2. I believe i’ve been fiddling with it for a year, and it’s still not operational, but I have a massive VTOL aircraft that’s just a few structural panels and 6 big breaking ground rotors. It started as an osprey replica. Then I added more engines and made it probe-cotrolled. Then I replaced the cargo bay with structural panels, and removed the wings. Now, I still haven’t flown it above 2,000 meters with a payload.
  3. I was just curious what a kerbal’s crash tolerance is. Or at least, what it most consistently is. In my testing, kerbals can hit water at speeds up to 60 m/s. On land, I’ve had kerbals hit the ground at 24 m/s and just get up, but I haven’t had any kerbals hit at speeds more than that but less than supersonic. But on lower gravity planets, I’ve had them hit up to 60 m/s and be fine(with a bit of spahgettification).
  4. Made something that was supposed to look like the old colored rocket launches.
  5. This is so very dead, sorry, but! LB/L1+Y/Triangle will bring up a menu for the sas controls!
  6. Leopard 208 right? Pretty cool and funny. Now, Mine. Falcon 9 malfunction Geostationary Kraken Skylon Kraken 128 Seperatrons Duna Glider - Back with a vengeance As long as the pilot's alive, it's a successful landing.
  7. 1. It’s unavoidable for me, it’s why I prefer rockets. 2. All Mk2 rocket planes i’ve made before or after watching Matt Lowne have similar wing+engine configurations. It’s just cool and efficient!
  8. Not today, yesterday, but, (inhale) Launched a shuttle with a big orange tank to my LKO station, sent my refinery, rover and hab module to Munbase, landed and began brief surface activity, refueling the lander, doing science, flipping the rover twice, noticed an ideal Jool transfer window, sending relays, a sentinel and a vall expedition, spotted a whole helluvalot of comets, then failed to get a Tylo gravity assist.
  9. @DoctorHoon @twilly @PappaKerbal Try using the old parts. I don’t know how to do it on PC, but on Xbox just keep pressing B on the parts list and then go to the 1.25 parts, and you should find a thick yellow one. That worked for me.
  10. 1. What’s plural of apoapsis? I’ll just put a * for plural. I deployed 3 sentinels, 1 for eve, duna and jool, and holy lord that’s a lot of objects. I’ve captured a few asteroids, so i’m focusing on comets and interstellar interlopers, of which i’ve not found . But i have found comets with apoapsis* of <3-10x eeloo height. So, just how far out can these be?! If anyone says ~Farrrrrr ouuuuuut brooooooo~ I will tell them to go back to California.
  11. Sent my lander to MunStation to finally begin surface operations - 2 years into the project.
  12. Just want to check - will I get banned for making fun of the refueling . . . position?
  13. I’m constructing my solar commnet, and am currently at Duna. I need precise orbital info, unfortunately, it just shows me LOCKED. I would expect this with bad signal or a weaker probe core, but i’m using the 2.5m one and my signal strength is 96% bouncing through Relay 3, 2, and my refueling/comms station before going to the KSC. It says unloaded on them which I imagine doesn’t make much of an impact, but I don’t know.
  14. Trying to make actual high effort memes/badges but not spending money be like
  15. https://www.xbox.com/play/media/CYBU4RE3 The video ain’t uploading, but that rover rocks side to side while driving and parked. I think it’s something with the wheels, but I don’t know. The drive limiters are turned down and the traction control is turned to 3 if that helps.
  16. That’s why I landed on the runway! It’s fine, I get it. I’ll go finish now
  17. !IN PROGRESS, I JUST WANTED TO SAVE THE POST! Destination: Orbit of Duna(12), Orbit of Ike(12), Surface of Duna(1) Cost per KubeSat: 1,643.6 per KubeSat(Recovered funds counted)/3,780 per Kubesat(Recovered funds not counted) "Cheats" used: DLC: Making history & mild part clipping. Launch https://imgur.com/a/qU7d6Wq Aircraft Recovery & Cost calculations https://imgur.com/a/RrbK1yx Transferring to Destination https://imgur.com/a/mboBrMy Deploying To be done!
  18. KSP beginners: Check yo' stagin', and . . . find the button for throttle. (To see what this is like, 14:56 of this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXD-rGJ1Nvw&t=899s) Chrome image editor: your source for high-quality memes
  19. Learned me some things to fight back against the kraken. The kraken’s kill list due to my mistakes is as follows: 3 Geosat 1as Station Olympus “City in the Sky” along with Shuttle 3 “Triumph” RF-C Station 1 Iteration #2 Minmus Refueling Depot All because I was an idiot with robotics. Luckily, quicksaves exist and usually help! I said iteration 2 because I accidentally destroyed it before, but reloaded a quicksave.
  20. Thou shalt always set the game to use free-cam
