Thanks, I've seen QuizTech before. Maybe I'll give it a try!

Yeah, I've looked into AoA. Though it doesn't seem to be updated for the most recent version.

Thanks, that mod looks cool. Even if it's not inline, I'm sure I can use it .

Ok, maybe I should clarify. I'm here to see about single-piece two-seater cockpits that don't look like crap. And by "makeshifting it with cubic struts", I meant attaching a second cockpit behind the first with cubic struts as mounting points to make it more flush than just laying them out in a line. So, for me they really don't "fill the role jsut fine".

Are there any mods which include decent two-seater cockpits suitable for training/reconaissance craft? I'd love to have something that looks decent and has a shared IVA, as I'm getting a little tired of makeshifting it with cubic struts and offset.

Post pictures of your aircraft involving moving parts from Infernal Robotics. To start us off, here's a neat little naval fighter I whipped up today: Its wings fold upward for storage and downward for flight, and lock in both positions for stability. This should help save a lot of space inside hangars or carriers. Flies just fine!

Seems like my aircraft all bend like crazy and lose quite a bit of efficiency under any sort of time-warp over around 2x.

I finished returning my Minmus expedition crew and created a Concorde-like supersonic passenger jet.

This kind of reasoning has driven me to create dedicated launch-escape systems, or at least effective safety features, in nearly all of my air and spacecraft. I do love to have certain kerbals that I go back to, with "reputations" and whatnot. After all, role-playing is the best playing.

I've been playing around with aircraft over the past couple days, only to find that no matter how low I set the pitch authority, they tumble and crash at the slightest hold of the "S" key. Is there any way to reliably fix this? Also, I would like to know how I can tweak my aircraft to make them smooth at the controls. Thanks for any answers!

Man, this is really interesting to watch. Can't wait to see more compact, more efficient, and more stable designs coming out. Maybe as SQUAD introduce new parts we'll see the oppurtunity for more tech like this?

@PeteWasEre & @Freshmeat ah, thanks for clearing that up. Also, is that a dry-erase board for the action group center? That's awesome!

I hope we get adjustable suspension + the earlier mentioned track idea. Then I can put together a sick Stridsvagn 103.

I could probably put together a BDarmory one. Thing is, for the next few weeks I'm restricted to my old laptop. 4 GB of RAM plus using this for Chrome means not a lot of mod room.

I'm just tired of having to make my Kerbin rovers teeny-tiny. I want a fuselage system (5m?) that can carry a decent sized land vehicle. Maybe some more actual reward from exploring Kerbin, or exploring other planets in general.

This is awesome! I wish I had the patience to build something like this. Also, are the built-in controls as easy to use? Seems like spaced-out switches aren't as ideal as WASD, but I don't know.

@Rocket In My PocketSince all of these seem to be related to causing random havoc on-mission, I might suggest the mod "Entropy". Basically, it adds a chance of random failures to your vessel, such as fuel leaks, engine malfunctions, etc. While it may not provide space-weather, it's probably a step in the direction you're trying to go.

All these pictures have got me itchin' to do some good old Kerbin exploring. Maybe I'll try some island hopping in the morning! Anyway, keep up the good work. Looking forward to some more natural wonders!

Ladies & Gentlemen, introducing the Stormwind fighter series. These crafts are long-range multirole fighters, quite reminiscent of the F-15, that can fit into almost any task, whether on the battlefield or fulfilling contracts. Stormwind Mk. 2 Especially when fitted with droptanks, this craft is quite long-range. Its large wings allow it to cruise at pretty high efficiency. While not as fast as the Stormwind II, this original variant is more efficient, slightly cheaper, and easier to use. Though it has some good traits, it also has stability problems, and will easily spin out if pushed too hard, although it is easy to recover due to its large wings and control surfaces. Stormwind Mk. 2 T (Two-seater/Trainer variant) This version of the aircraft is useful for pilot training, or missions where an extra crew member might come in handy. The addition of an extra cockpit has some serious impacts on the maneuverability of the aircraft, but it still flies quite well. Stormwind II Mk. 1 Now on to the second aircraft in the series, the Stormwind II. This plane is fast, boasting top speeds of over 1,000 m/s @ 10,000 meters altitude. Although it pays for this in reduced fuel efficiency (Read: This thing guzzles jet fuel like a champion chugger guzzles beer), it can still make it a significant distance if the operator holds back on the throttle and stays at altitude. In the second picture, you can see its interesting wing shape and canard layout. .craft files Stormwind Mk. II https://kerbalx.com/Wabbit/PA-Stormwind-Mk-2 Stormwind Mk.

I hope you enjoyed, and I'd love to hear what you think, as well as tips on how these designs can be tweaked/improved.

Welcome to the forums, and great work on the spaceplane! My patience always seems to run out with all the tweaking that goes in to making one

I optimized the layout and control surface sensitivity for my new "Stormwind" series of long-range multirole fighters. Now they fly like a dream, especially with fine controls.

These are great! I'd love to see some of the giant tank-hauling ships, though I understand they may not be feasible in KSP, or the towed glider.

Yes, I forgot to mention the tail fin comes from B9. The first few pictures come from a version where I forgot the tail rotor, but in the last two it has one.

I'm bringing to you today a build I've been working on over the weekend: A fully working and weaponized Hind! It features two working cockpits, pylons with plenty of room for ordnance, semi-accurate landing gear placement, and a passenger cabin. I tried to make it as true to real life as possible, so tell me what you think! Here we see it flying majestically over the KSC, using its machinegun to destroy a spherical tank on the space center grounds. Landed in the grasslands, ready to unload troops. Finally, landed back on the VAB roof. Thanks for looking through. I'm currently unable to post a .craft file, so sorry if anyone wants to download this. See ya!

Interesting! I guess the design, especially the downward angle of the wings, sacrifices quite a bit of stability for the sake of maneuverability. I'll have to play around with it.
