You know that Saturn V LEGO kit? Yeah, built that with my family today. It took like 4 hours at most.

Yeah, SpeedingMullet checks quite often. For being recognized, he posts in here and you are quoted. Its an honor system then for the badges

Played more, this time with the soviet tanks. Like them a lot. Small and easy to snipe with. My kind of style!

I'm thinking about either a career in science(probably chemistry) or in props/model making. Both seem like fun.

Oh. Please accept my condolences.

I'm just gonna say..... I liked @Dman979's old profile pic better and now he changed it....

So, @adsii1970 we just list our current educational status? Okay then. Currently a high school student, not sure where I want to go.

You could downsive perhaps. There was this video from Bradley Whistance Uses Ion engines instead of NERVs

Haven't tried them all, but Britain seems pretty decent. I like the german tanks though.

I practiced using a laythe. That's about it.

Uhhhhh..... I don't understand the abbreviations.... sorry I've been doing the Air Arcade Battles so far. I think I'm getting more used to it, and its a lot easier than manual flying, from KSP bdarmory experience.

Yeah, a slider in this case could be nice. Or a set of pylons for the engine as you suggested.

Downloaded. Super fun. Although, not sure how much I like the mouse aim controls. What do you guys use?

But.... Is it really necessary? Couldn't you stick a couple of radiators onto it to help dissipate heat. Also, a well designed reentry should help mitigate heat problems.

What I might do is pack a separate Tylo lander in the cargo bay. Minimizes the need for redesign. I also already have enough dV, so why not use it?

Oh, she'll be fine! I'd be slightly more concerned if it was unshielded...

That is called a breadboard. You can plug electronic components in it to prototype circuits without having to solder parts. It has nothing to do with KSP, unless you have a control panel running off of it.

I really shouldn't be doing this, as Azimech is the challenge moderator, but... Don't you need a science container, or 2. Those differ from science experiments. They are the big white container things.

The 1500 m/s is without any LF for the nukes. So yeah, using the vectors is out of the question. I'll have to play around with the hybrid approach. Using the rapiers instead might be a better option, especially since the vectors are not well balanced. Also, seems the rapiers have less than a 0.8 TWR... I'm not super enthusiastic about a redesign. But yeah, you are probably right about 5000 m/s being overkill. I'll keep your comments in mind if I do a redesign. EDIT:Another question. For both the Tylo/Vall landings, is it better to start in a high orbit or in a lower orbit?

Impractical. Couple shots in the middle, and it can't move anymore. Pretty, but yeah, that^

Yeah, probably the best thing to do is to go partially fueled. I was coming from Pol very heavy, almost a full load. Might then just head to bop to burn some LF. As for deltaV - I might not have enough on RAPIERs, but have plenty on nervs. Then again, the TWR problem appears.... Craft redesign may be in order... Looking at the craft in the SPH, I can MAX get 1500 m/s out of the VTOL vectors.... Don' think that's enough right? Unless I do some crazy stuff like using brakes to slow down.......

Oh, and I just sent you a message about that. Huh. Hi. I'm giving you another chance, @CatastrophicFailure. Let's hope no one ninjas

Thing that blocks engine thrust, but is toggle-able to stop thetime needed for the junos to spool up. @Azimech might have a better explanation...

No chance, cause I did! @CatastrophicFailure?

Hello. So I am trying to do a jool 5 at the moment, and am currently in the joolian system. I have a spaceplane with around 5000 dV on NERVs and around 7000 units of oxidizer for rapiers/VTOL vectors. Oh, and an ISRU system. At the moment I'm stuck. I've visited Pol and Laythe with minimal issues. However, I'm not sure where to go from there, or actually how to land on Tylo or Vall with a sorry 0.2 or so TWR on NERVs, fully loaded. Can anyone help/give tips on landings and a possible route? Thanks. Craft for reference. https://kerbalx.com/qzgy/Heidegger-V I already ditched the rover as well.
