The Experimental Craft Showcase thread.

Do you make crafts to test out a mod/idea? I make them all the time! Share them here!

I have a couple:

Spoiler

^^This is my not-so flawless attempt at an Interplanetary Transfer Vehicle. Im not going to list out the flaws, but it can easily be improved and tought me alot about transfer vehicles and Nuclear Engines in Realism Overhaul.

^^ I wanted to know if you can make an SLS completely out of Soviet/Russian engines, and it works! Although the Soviets did not have SRBs, i could easily replace it with a double RD171 rocket booster.

 

^^I never really thought of assymetrical launch vehicles, but it actually works flawlessly. And they also look great!

 

^^ I tried launching an Orion on a Falcon Heavy. It does not have fuel to do a planned and correctly done TLI burn, but it works fine!

^^ i also tried launching progress Cargo Vehicles on an SLS, to see what happends, but its extremely messy!

(Don't let my list fool you, this does not have to be RO related)

Very interesting rocket VTOL! Reminds me of the Venturestar SSTO.

Here's something I've been messing with, a bottom mounted shuttle. Still trying to cut down cost, mostly by eliminating that vector, but I'm reluctant to just mount it directly to the plane itself because it looks ugly.

I have a few spacecraft in the testing phase. I'll probably upload a couple of pictures later. I always test things before launching them for a proper mission so I can make sure they work.
