K&S TECHNOLOGIES GROUP (Construction Site Video Series) CONSTRUCTION SITE PART 5 Construction Site 5 is part of a Series of Construction Site Videos with craft builds from other players at times. In this Video we are featuring craft built by @Triop and @Servo. Triop has some amazing Mini Automobiles he built with operating Doors & Hoods. I can't say enough about the details and how clean they look. Also Servo built an Excavator with incredible Engineering and functionality.I'm sure many hours went into their builds as well as ours and we are honored to share them. As always it's been a joy working with @klond being able to see his amazing Engineering first hand. I can only hope they enjoy how we have presented them here. Thanks again to Triop and Servo for allowing us to show their incredible works. Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 More Photos Here

The Spirit Of St. Louis K&S Technologies Group This project started with Klond's idea of building the Aircraft flown by Mr. Charles A. Lindbergh, "The Spirit of St. Louis" It turned out to be an awesome craft build and became my motivation to help with the project. I had an old Hangar I built and thought this would be a good time to do something with it. My first look at my Hangar told me it needed a serious updating. So the Hangar became a complete do over. The Hangar Doors were the reason I put the Hangar to the side for awhile and asked if Klond if he would whip up some Doors that can operate for the video and not to my surprise we had Doors that can open and close. If we were going to arrive in Paris we thought it would be neat to see the Eiffel Tower and some Flags to add some identification to the project. Attempts to get them in Video were not going well for me. We also decided to go black and white with the film which was great but this was taking away from the Color on the Flags. These can be seen in the photo gallery. Gallery

K&S Technologies Group "Wind Turbines" Featuring Krog34 It's hard to believe we started collaborating about this project in December. We've had many set backs during this project and kept pressing on. A big thanks to Krog34 for letting us feature his Kermansky Turbo Helicopter "Skycrane 2.0" Klond built a really cool Wind Turbine that was the building block of this Video. I threw a hand in the project building Transportation Vehicles, Prop Stuff and the Video. The Kermansky "Skycrane 2.0" with it's updates can be found here The Kermansky "Skycrane 2.0" Photos

Sanchez Besa By: K&S Technologies Group To have lived in this era would have been so fascinating to me. That's part of my motivation when building these early aircraft. When I start these projects I look for pictures online and find one that I like, then begin to build it. Then I find myself struggling to build an engine to accommodate the craft. This is where team work helps. Klond once again built this brilliant little engine that's perfect for the craft giving it that real life feel. Engine work by klond The engine is actually two contra-rotating units, totaling 20ish-kN and somewhat of a gas hog. Props are non-adjustable. Engine derived, and very similar to the one on the https://kerbalx.com/klond/tiny-coaxial-turbocopter Craft File Parts: 167 Mass: 5.545t Height: 3.6m Width: 11.6m Length: 7.5m We were enjoying this Three Engine Version and wanted to share it. She's a little delicate but another fun flight with much more power. Three Engine Version An Early Flights Video you may enjoy

K&S Technologies Group Kayak Racing This project started with a little Kayak I once built and it then bloomed into a Kayak Race. At first the craft was only a cool little show piece without any intentions of a rowing mechanism and we thought about making one for it. At first the rowing mechanism was tweaked and fitted to look and row nicely. Then the idea of racing came along with the creations that were needed for filming. We both hope everyone enjoys this Kayak Racing Project as much as we enjoyed putting it together. Once again a huge thanks to @klond for his inspiration with the KSP Engineering that gives me the motivation to push these projects to their limits. The Making of K&S Kayak Racing Operations: K&S Kayak Drive the Kayak to the water by holding down your W key for forward and A&D Keys for steering, hitting water near 20 m/s. Engage SAS when you are in the water. EVA a Kerbal and mount into the seat if desired. Pressing Space Bar will remove wheels and Capsule. Apply Full Throttle Press Space Bar and allow Kayak to reach 2.0 m/s Switch to the Oar's, press and hold Q to Row. K&S Dueling Kayak's Drive the Kayaks to the water by holding down your W key for forward and A&D Keys for steering, hitting water near 20 m/s. EVA Kerbals and mount into the seats if desired. Pressing Space Bar will remove wheels and Capsule. Apply Full Throttle and press Space Bar and allow Kayaks to travel near 2.0 m/s Switch to first Kayak by switching Left. Press and hold Q then Switch Left Press and hold Q to Row second Kayak Kayaks will continue to paddle on their own. Switch back to the craft by switching Right twice, steering with A&D K&S Kayak Craft File: K&S Kayak Parts: 108 Mass: 4.185t Height: 3.4m Width: 6.6m Length: 12.3m K&S Dueling Kayaks Craft File: K&S Dueling Kayaks Parts: 362 Mass: 9.494t Height: 4.3m Width: 15.7m Length: 16.7m
