Scarecrow... I like it... This may undergo a major change... I have to build the craft before I will submit the challenge, so it may be a bit.

Alrighty people, here's the plan. Who can get the fastest possible speed with their wheels still touching the ground. Gotta be on Kerbal, I don't really care where... Must post screenshot with speed. Please list your mods that you use. I will keep track of the first 10 placings. Here's mine: I used KW rocketry and B9 Aerospace. Its just rocket and alot of fuel.

alright guys. I had the engine compartment done when it crashed. I tried to work on it, but repetition for me is irratating and I didn't want to do it again today. I tried to recreate the XB-70 and managed to create a craft that spins out of control at 1200 m/s and snaps into about 5 pieces when it does that... I was irritated at KSP and took a break. So, as we speak, I have a single large piece added to the Serenity and it is not worth discussing at the moment. I will get more done at a later date. On the welder. It keeps rearranging the parts. It makes me mad. I quit using it.

http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/arudem-rocketry/ After about 10 seconds of searching, I found a mod with a "short pulse-massive lift device" Sounds pretty close to it. We will give her a shot.

Hmmm.... lets see how i can get THAT to work. Thanks for the info, I've been trying to figure this out. I may just get a massively powerful engine (Modded) and just provide thrust with bursts. Welll... I had the frame of engine compartment and enough thermoelectric generators to create roughly 2000 electric/min then ksp crashed and I lost the engine compartment.

I'm going to use the Sabre M engine from the KW rocketry mod. I am working on how to get the sabre M to work in both atmo and non atmo. Update on me: Redbull supplies... gone. Food.... a few oreos left. I currently have 3 computers with 4 screens working (Building serenity, Watching Firefly, Forum and general life stuff) Serenity should be semi flyable by tonight

I may change the way the cargo hold is set up... I need to figure it out some.

I've completed the nose, neck and cargo hold. I need to build the "engine compartment" and the wings and whatnot. I need to run some simulations to see if the rotation can handle the kind of force I will put on it... I am planning on using the KW rocketry's dual engine (The rocket and jet combonation). I want to be able to use those in and out of atmo. I need a mod for a warp drive for the rear of the craft, I guess I need to look for it. She will be able to haul cargo when I am done. She looks a little rough, but she is gonna fly really well. I am worried that the cargo bay is just barely gallywopped with the neck section. I guess at this point you want me to shut up and provide pictures...

Yall are getting a Globerunner variant... let me get a little bit to stop working on my current project.

Update: The liberal application of redbull and firefly is helping the process along. I erased what I had before and started over. Let me know what you think. I'm going to get to the body and get the front door frame in place and I'll jump over to a minor project to get my mind off of it temporarily.

I have taken a nap, gotten some redbull and got a full belly of pizza... Its time to get serenity worked on. I'm not banning anyone from saying like a leaf. on. the. wind. but... when you say it you only remind me of the last time he says it :'(

What about a warp drive for the rear drive? Does anybody know how to do that?

Alrighty boys (and girls too if you are out there), Here's what I got. I'm using a B9 aerospace cockpit, and it looks too narrow... what do yall think?

Update: I'm being a bit of a perfectionist (which is rare for me) so its taking a while. I'm starting at the cockpit (I always thought of the serenity as a swan in its shape, so if i relapse into using neck, head and the sort, please bear with me). I am relying heavily on B9 aerospace parts, and I think I have figured out how I am going to get the VTOL engines to work. I'll post a screenshot of Serenity daily or maybe even bi daily if I make enough progress. I'll be running seperate tests to work on my knowledge of how to get the VTOL to work. Also, for future reference, If you can find a lego version of it it helps bunches!!

I got most all the mods mentioned here. They are pretty awesome. I am confident I can get this done, Going to go to take care of some chores and get some food then I shall begin on serenity
