That boat is literally burning up in the water. That's pretty fast.

Edit: Hm, I can't seem to make the album for imgur.

How do you plan on making the tracks for the tanks? Or are you just dropping tracks altogether in the stock version?

I believe the KV-1 is a heavy tank, not a medium tank. Also, may I suggest the German SdKfz 222 armored car? (Sorry for a third edit) How do you measure the dimensions of your models/stock parts? I've always been interested in how replica builders know the sizes.

Oh dear, Jeb's floating away again...

I made this as a stupid joke. And it flies. KSP, you've taught me how to be the best aeronautical engineer! Download: http://www./download/8iht76qto8oladm/KSP_plz.craft It flies surprisingly well, although you have to be a bit careful on banking, and it's decent at gliding. The controls feel a bit floaty though, you may want to add SAS.

Many times I have seen those fancy upward flying planes floating around on this forum. I've tried to make VTOLs before, and they ended up flipping over or exploding in general. However, from my sleep deprived brain, I finally managed to make a stable and working VTOL. *Cue victory dance and falling asleep midway through I present to you... The Turtle VTOL! Action group 1 toggles VTOL engines and back engines. Group 2 toggles the VTOL bay doors. It was interesting to see that closing the door does actually cut off the thrust downward.

Regular day at the KSP station....

The first thing I thought of was that you could make the game of Connect Four in KSP.

A cool, semi-compact ATV I made in KSP. It has four wheels that can reach up to record-breaking 9 m/s speeds. It also has 8 LV-1 Ant engines distributed evenly with some SAS to keep it in check. It flies nicely in Kerbin, although I haven't tested it elsewhere. Due to the compact size, there's not much fuel on board. There is some (big emphasis on some) water capabilities; I really only managed to land it in the water and nothing else. Supporting landing legs on the bottom support landing, and there's three large parachutes to land softly in an atmosphere. There's a single seat in the middle for a kerbal to sit on and scream in terror absolute joy. If you slapped on some instruments, this could be a somewhat okay probe. ANYWAYS, AFTER THAT WALL OF TEXT, here are the instructions: There are 2 unmanned command pods. I will never figure out which way is up with the probes, and I managed to put the original one upside down and thus reversing some controls. I fixed it by putting a second probe on, near the top, which you can control and have right side up movement. Action group 1 toggles the 2 Communotron antennas. Group 2 extends the two solar panels (Not necessary because there are some nukes on board, but it definitely looks nicer). Group 3 triggers the three parachutes. It's pretty self-explanatory after that. I have Realchute installed, and hopefully it doesn't interfere with the parachutes... Download: http://www./download/gu2ze13gr315zb0/ATV_mk2.craft

I've been toying with the idea of a stock V-22 osprey. I've made a rather bad version of it that will somewhat fly. You have to pull up hard after you run off the runway and keep correcting upwards. Also, if you wish to go down, you have to dip down below the horizon slowly or else it will enter an irrecoverable tumble. It has some extra parts to allow some form of flight. Can someone make a better version and share it? Download: http://www./download/195l20hrajg292x/Osprey_1.craft

Thanks! I don't know if I can build a smaller one. (AKA, I'm really bad at building efficiently)

I was never good at replicas, especially working ones, but somehow I managed to build a craft somewhat similar to the Global Hawk drone. I was really surprised to find that it could fly, albeit a bit clumsy. Those little nubs at the very front are clipped winglets to adjust the CoL.

What is your policy on part clipping? EDIT: Also, would you consider putting up a poll (HKA and GMI) so we can see the balance of alliances?

I was exploring the possibilities of having a wheel with rockets roll down the runway (It failed miserably), but then I thought that this wheel could be adapted to be a centrifuge. KSP decided to screw all the symmetry options, etc. and I basically hand-placed most of the parts with some copy paste. The usage is pretty self-explanatory. I'd love if someone could make a better version and share it. Download: http://www./download/tk73x356wp4tyaz/Centrifuge.craft Poor Jeb JEB'S HAVING LOTS OF FUN!
