"A Small Step For A Kerbal, A Big Leap For The Kebkind" Challenge


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone! this is my second challenge! i hope you like it!

So what you got to do:

1) Make a rocket available to get up the 10,000m mark

2) And land safely :)

RULES:

1)Land ONLY using RCS\'s and 2 RCS fuel tanks.

2)Stock parts only, up to Experimental Release .11x4.

3) NO SAS module ;)

Screenshots are necessary for your entry to be valid:

1) launchpad :)

2) 10,000m or above 8)

3) falling to kearth ;P

4) using RCS to slow down your fall ???

Tips:

1) place 8 RCS\'s in the RCS fuel tank to use all they power

This one should be interesting.

Time to unzip x4.

EDIT: As it turns out, 16 RCS\'s barely have enough power to lift one tank and the capsule. This poses a problem.

Initial tests show that the lander has a tendency to tilt, giving it more sideways speed than vertical braking. Hilarity ensues momentarily.

Yea, alternating sets of 6 with a total of 24 RCS\'s barely casue it to lift.

So here\'s the problem I\'ve run into: I can\'t slow down the capsule to a safe speed when trying to land. Goes from about 25 m/s to 35 m/s, which is about 34 m/s when I crash.

I\'m tagging foamyesque, DrEvo, CarolRawley, C7Studios, and Sordid to figure this out.
