Well I got this almost-finished ship.

Those main guns are from the IJN Yamato, if you want a sense of scale.

And this is mine....It's slightly more details on it.... And by using B9 Aerospace's spaceship engines, it can fly into space and other planets...

I guess the craziest thing I've built is a replica of Fireball XL5 (anyone born after 1970 can look it up on Youtube or Google).  The only minus point is that you need to enable Infinite Propellant to fly it, as to get the balance right to enable the 2 parts to fly individually as well as when coupled together meant that some of the fuel tanks are either empty or don't have much fuel, and the shift in C of M as the available fuel is used would lead to some interesting flight characteristics.

There's a lot of action group keys to remember too, but they're all listed on the KerbalX page. 

The craft has been updated slightly since I made the video posted here : flap indication on Junior now also uses a green light to show when flaps are deployed, ans a righting mechanism and landing legs have been added to Junior.  This means that when landing Junior on low gravity bodies, a vertical descent can be made to land on the legs.  Once on the surface, the wheels can be deployed and the righting mechanism used to put Junior on it's wheels.  This is only really necessary if you want to use the ladder to egress and ingress the craft, as it is designed to be used when Junior is on it's wheels and not for when sitting vertically.

A short clip showing how amendments to Junior can be used to make a vertical landing on low gravity, non-atmospheric bodies.

Not entirely crazy whacky but its definitely is sort of weird.

In Realism Overhaul I made an SLS using Russian Engines (and i changed the colors to be more-Energia like) only, its surprisingly simple.
