Backflip Rocket Launcher X3

[cardgame]

As some of you may already know, I have created a piece of rocket artillery that has one stunning feature - the ability to perform a backflip upon firing its payload.

That payload has now been recalibrated to hit a ground target at approximately 420 meters, making this a much more useful asset than one whose rockets fly off into the sky.

Stop! Freeze frame!

Analysis:

More importantly, it hasn\'t lost its backflip feature To aim, simply switch to the inbuilt nokia advanced targeting system and align your target in the center of your rockets. Ensure that it is at the right range and compensate for elevation if necessary. These rockets fire at an elevation of five degrees.

I think this is incredibly fun to play around with the fixed camera mod, which is why I\'m releasing it. Perhaps someone with proper software could create a video montage of kerbal proportions with this and other, similarly goofy crafts.

I have an idea that it may be possible to create an orbit of missiles on the Mun or Minmus with this or similar crafts. The backflip may even get the BigTrak airborne for quite a while on Minmus... I\'m looking forward to testing it there shortly.

And of course, the latest BigTrak revision as of this writing and Tosh\'s cart plugin.

How do you do that moving picture. But looks really cool in my opinion if the military choose you... Back flipping tanks and people!

I use a simple program called GIFQuickMaker for Mac OSX, spam a bunch of screenshots together, resize them in PS and compile them into the animated .gif.

Here\'s a slower one:

You sir get a cookie.

I am stunned. I love the backfip feature and the fact that it survives the backflip itself.

And you\'re talking to Cave Johnson here, the king of combustible citrus fruits.

I have never gotten a single cart to flip SAFELY at all.
