  1. yes. could you please change the name of your thread please? because this one comes dangerously close to mine. the name not the actual thread. thanks
  2. nice one phil, i would appreciate a craft. file and the mods requirements, but nonetheless it looks awesome and inregards for my aircraft, ive attached 3 pics of it, one of them shows the RCS system from C7 Studiosâ„¢ used for the VTOL because stock RCS isnt powerful enough. the design is pretty basic, but yeah, its a start . so, a quick tutorial for using the RCS system (for those new to the game). launch the craft with full throttle (the engine wouldnt able to lift the aircraft otherwise). fly to your destination (i recommend turning on the SAS for a smooth ride). when you are about 2 miles form the LZ, turn the engine to 1/4 throttle. 1 mile from the LZ, cut your engine, turn your RCS on and use your retro thrusters (N key on the keyboard). hopefully, you\'ll stop when you reach your LZ. then turn off the SAS for a controlled decent. now comes the tricky part. to manually control the RCS use the JKIL keys as the ASWD for RCS. also. use the H key for forward RCS and the N key for the retro RCS. descent slowly to the ground, control you descend with the K key for a stable vertical speed. and use the J and L key to counter horizontal speed. master all of this and you\'ll be on your way to land on the ground. dont forget to keep a watch at your RCS fuel level because this aircraft only have 3 tanks. thats it then, feel free download and edit my craft (for better or worse) and most important of all, Have fun!
  3. any chance that the lunar module have the ability to return to kerbin, ive tried a month to create a lander that can return to kerbin safely. if it can, or you have something that can, a cfg. file of it would be much appreciated.
  4. k then, a forum for VTOL\'s and VTOL\'s ONLY. I dont care how cool your design is, if it cant land with a horizontal speed < 0.5 m/s it dont belong here. thank you btw ill start, and you need C7 Base AND experimental parts to use it, and also HSTW\'s Amphibious gear. enjoy EDIT: well, ive just realized that the effectiveness of the RCS-VTOL system depends on where i position the downward RCS thrusters relative to the other downward thrusters. so if my current design isnt stable enough, i have a (hopefully) more stable craft in my pc. so yeah, write below if you guys need a more stable one (again, Hopefully) and ill give the pics tommorow. im done for today.
  5. oh wow. imagine the possibilities. thanks man, i really appreciate this, ill tweak it with mods see what i can do
  6. Exactly, i use stock because they are the standard. the mods i download are the ones that\'s not far off from from the stocks. and i dont download mods like, aircrafts, weapons, radiators and all that good stuff because the devs havent implement the official version of those parts to the game. and i like to play it official. that said. i dont oppose creative mods, hell i encourage those. they showed me that the community of this game is very active and very creative, and im proud to be a part of it. thats why i bought the game. and people, keep it low. i dont want my first thread in this forum to be a flaming thread.
  7. the Title said it all. its stocks for me, although i do download some addons packs every now and then, but not that much often. and btw, im new. this game looks good enough for me so i bought it last week. so ya, cheers!
