Flyable aircraft are deceptively difficult to design with caveman restrictions and are invariably deathtraps for the pilots who fly them. Below is the best design that I was able to create, and even it was dangerously under-powered and prone to stalls. The best advice that I am able to provide you with is to use forward winglets for pitch control instead of rear ailerons, which decrease lift.

Hi guys, sorry that I've been somewhat negligent of late. I'm tremendously busy at present. Hopefully I'll have a chance to review recent thread activity over the weekend.

Brilliant stuff.

@ManEatingApe, you visited Moho in version 1.1 according to @Moesly_Armlis's records. It's very difficult for me to picture you performing a mere flyby, even at Moho. No caveman has yet been able to conjure magic to that degree. Yes, ladder drives and similarly driven crafts are still forbidden.

I remember when first I started this thread. It seems as if it were yesterday. Now it's been 3 years and there are broken images in the first pages. I feel so proud. @RoninFrog, that's what I call an unfair advantage.

@RoninFrog, congratulations are in order! The cave wall has been updated. The world is your cavern. Keep on spelunking! :p

One does not simply "wait for contracts to expire." Indeed, for most difficulty levels the main challenge is to design vessels capable of gathering the science necessary to unlock the tech tree nodes within the design constraints of the level 1 VAB/SPH, viz. an 18 ton weight limit and 30x part count limit. On another note, I observe that the forum update has broken the topic page. This problem will be remediated post-haste.

As no one has yet mentioned this, and it seems to me to be of paramount importance in any forum update, I shall. Where are the new emojis? Surely we can't be expected to chug along with an antiquated collection when everything else has been improved.

The text contrasts poorly with the white background on large screens, methinks.

The first thing eh? Melt the VAB of course!

Barbicane and Maston approve. Heartily.

The launchpad is octagonal. Stop signs are octagonal... Odd, eh?

Bah.

Fact: The reflection of "toad" spells "daot." Invert the "d" and exchange the position of "a" with that of "o." The result: qoat Toads are shape-shifting goats.

Bug-eyes are cute. Blinking is not cute. Case & point: Kerbals need to be cute, therefore they have bug-eyes and do not blink.

Giddy Gilly Billy Goat. I bet ye canne' say that even 3 times quickly.

Unmatched attention to detail and stunning cinematic production! I khristen thee the king of klipping!

I wouldn't consider myself a true amateur astronomer. I have, however, managed to observe both a total solar and total lunar eclipse. The latter with my refracting telescope.

It's back baby. Three hurrahs for necro-posting!

Boo! I bet you weren't expecting this one. @Ghost (Check his profile. He has never visited the forum.) I guess there isn't enough superstition to go around.

Where is Ike? We like Ike.

Caveman congratulations @QF9E! Brilliant work! You have been added to the completion board and may claim your badge.

It's a very good idea. I love it. But it will be bloody difficult.

The cratering concentrated along a linear path (center of image) is interesting to note. What might have caused this phenomenon?
