Not sure if legal, but i Tried docking a two part rocket togheter on the launchpad. Each part was 18 tonnes and one was put on the launchpad from the vab, and the other was rolled there from the runway. Docking was succesfull but as soon as it was docked everything exploded for some reason..

I am reading in later comments that there is a 2.5 tonne weight limit but i cant find it in the original posts rules.

Could someone perhaps draw a circle around where the molten pipes are? I have been looking at this image for 10 minutes now

10:28 3 juno engines and just enough fuel, i took off in the 90 degree direction and when i was at about 12km i turned around so that when i hit 15km i would be fairly close to the ksc and could pretty much just dive straight down. then at the very last moment i used a split rudder as an airbrake to slow down and land safely

Perhaps the preburner starter running too lean and the problem is just a valve. The Heat from the event/molten steel burned through one of the pneumatic lines Could i be getting close ?

I thought starlink was also supposed to compete with regular internet providers in urban areas

99 dollars per month and you also have to pay for the router? Are these normal prices in the usa? My internet is 30 euro's per month and i didn't have to pay for the router. I get that this system is more complicated so i partialy onderstand the higher costs but if they want to compete with normal internet providers these prices are going to have to come down.

Hello fellow ksp players Although there has not been a lot of interest from the community, in this topic i will be documenting the development of stock piston engines by me (and possibly others) But i hear you asking: Why would you even build a turboprop when we have stock(dlc) motors already in the game? My answer to that is the following: For me kerbal Space program has never been much of a Space simulator and more of a physics game. I love building things that shouldn't work and doing it anyway. And piston engines have become somewhat of a obsession to me, from the first one i build that litterally needed the power of rockets to even run to ever more effiencient, simple and powerfull designs, Just to see how far i can push this concept. That for me, is what ksp is all about. This is Just an introduction to this story. But later today i wil be uploading video's, pictures and also explanations as to why i made specific design choices and i how i improved them or how i would like to improve them. I really hope that i can get people interested. But if that is not the case at least i will have written a story and that's pretty good fun on it's own.

Dear consumer, This aircraft is the latest effort by Flying Dutchman inc. in creating ever more practical piston engine powered aircraft. as you will see this one has many new luxuries such as: a semi enclosed cockpit and having the shape of a regular aircraft. we very much hope you will enjoy it and since we like to keep our customers happy, feedback is always welcome! engine: dcx quad otter mk2 max rated rpm: 350 horsepower: slightly more adequate. The tiger cub II is the bigger brother of the tiger cub I it features a bigger engine and a higher top speed. https://kerbalx.com/theflyingdutchman/tiger-cub-II

@klond

I made a stock piston engine run at 400 rpm

Sn8 looks to be taller than mk1, has anyone done a comparison?

maybe a mockup lunar starship?

Only 4.9 km/s of dv? I really don't see Them doing point tot point with those nummers, or even getting tot Orbit with no payload when on top of super heavy. Edit: the prop load is twr limited in this case...

I voted yes and i know that it's not the scientific consensis but i feel bad for poor pluto. Maybe we can give it the title of "honorary planet" ?

If the sr71 was flying at mach 3.6 or 980 m/s, what percentage of normale Gravity did the pilots experience?

What upgrade? Did i miss something?

It looks so clean compared tot MK1!

i have made my most powerful engine available for download, hopefully this will be helpful to some.

Flying Dutchman INC presents: the piston engine. because we think it stil 1910. Yes sir! for only zero dollars even you can afford this magical invention. get it now free of charge from kerbalx.com! https://kerbalx.com/theflyingdutchman/stock-piston-engine-for-aircraft

i flew a piston powered aircraft from the island airfield to the ksc today

Would anyone benifit from a simple tutorial outlining the basics?

well that's how i do it i'll think about that easy mode.
