Triop

Lol, I use that trick aswell. Sometimes even stack a few of them.

My turn, RAPIER ! On the runway: Climbing straight up: Going for it, no time for a screenshot, ready to get hot! Coming in: Landed: F3 info: Next up J33...

I know, I meant to say that, It's just my poor English...Thanks.

T3hJimmer ExaltedDuck I will only use info displayed on F3 screen, I know it's not exactly accurate but this way it's fair for everybody...

Cargo bay was open ?

Let me help you

You are free to make your own FAR challenge if you like... far, far, far away from my thread I knew you could not resist this

Mission: -Build a plane with a single jet engine (J33-TurboJet-Rapier). -Put a *notsostupid* Kerbal (or 2) in it. -Take off from the runway. -Go as fast as you can, but stay under 25.000 meters. -Don't explode, don't lose any parts. -Return to the runway and land safe (close to the runway is also ok). -Prove you did this by screenshots (F3) -No mods, no overclipping ! *I will only use info displayed on F3 screen ! Reward: -Good feeling -A batch if someone will design them. LEADERBOARD J33 1. T3hJimmer 717 m/s 2. 2. Turbojet 1. ExalterDuck 1.485 m/s 2. T3hJimmer 1.427 m/s 3. Rapier 1. ExalterDuck 1.741 m/s 2. Xannari Ferrows 1.715 m/s 3. Triop 1.614 m/s 4. 5. GOOD LUCK !

That could work, maybe I will try it. But first I'm going to blow up some Kerbals testing the Rapier Engine.

Testing RAPIER ! I could have gone faster but I did not wanna blow up Will try this plane to circum-thingy tomorrow.

You won't believe this....I RAN OUT OF FUEL ! Again But it was fun and I learned a lot about high speed flying (and fuel consumption ) This baby can stand some heat ! Pushing it hard ! At the crater in 33 minutes going 1450 m/s ! 3/4 done in 36 minutes ;.;;.;;.; So close... Total distance traveled 94.665 ???? That must be a record It's not the plane or the fuel, this plane can do a run under 50 minutes. its the pilot (jep. that's me). For me, it's back to the drawingboard...

Result of my speedtest: I go as fast as I can and no hot surfaces ! I will make a run with this, no mods, warp or saves. Just me concentrating for one hour. 440 fuel is in it...what am I doing ??? This beter works

This is a challenge, you did BOOM ! It happened, no honour in saves for me (or mods).

Rapier and 800 fuel, I'd love to see that. What's with all those solar panels ? It looks a bit like my "Spiker" Haven't tested this in 1.0.3... I will be waiting ready to go...

You go first Testing new plane :

I'm in on it right now ! 1/3 done, 20 minutes...hope to get under the hour. Scared for landing, didn't even test my plane, BAG style (Build And GO !) UPDATE: Ran out of fuel landed safe 15 kilometers from the base Total distance traveled 58,131 ? I was happy with the new 400 units liquid fuel tank, but it also seems to add mass... http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/126610-Mk1-liquid-fuel-fuselage-in-1-0-3 It was my first run in 1.0.3. Will try this again, great scary fun hour.

Mass ? we don't need no stinkin' mass... SMALLER PLANES !

I see it has 400 units, wasn't that 150 units before ? I love it, smaller planes for challenges !

I did not think that was even possible ! You did not use F3 for the proper timeset, but the video clearly shows a 6 sec. landing so I will pass this. I don't think any more people wanna compete now......Unless you will give us your craftfile so we can try to beat your time (rules don't say anything about building the craft yourself or copy designs.) I wil give it a new category for pilot skills.

Cool ! I will update the leaderboard.

So proud of my little baby VTOL... Now show me yours.

Nice job and very fast Rhomphaia ! I will put your name on the leaderboard.

Yes, you can.
