How is it hidden? Are you on a phone? You can scroll the signatures.

Now it doesn't have enough troque? You guys are hard to please.

10/10 I see you everywhere!

May I ask a question about your craft? Why does it have the 4 angled engines? they only provide a bit of thrust and they guzzle lots of fuel.

10/10 I've been seeing you since a year ago.

VTOL testing. Sploden's "Damselfly remix 3" is my favourite so far.

Umm, Xeldrak, I think there's something wrong with your abort system. It only fires one engine and there's no action group for the parachute. Secondly, can you guys label where to put the .craft files? Some of them are for the VAB.

It's much lighter than landing gear, and when it lands, most of the shock is absorbed by the rear wheels anyways, so the skid just elevates the nose when it comes down. Spaceshipone and Spaceshiptwo also used the same kind of front skid to save weight.

1. It has a tendency to tip forward so that it is harder flip backwards. 2. It weighs half as much, so half the troque. Your version looks a lot better than mine, but I don't think I should change my entry.

1. Can you elaborate on that? It should be balanced relatively well. 2. You can always disable reaction wheels. I added extra reaction wheels so that it might help new players to get out of a bad situation. Plus, the stock craft has FOUR reaction wheels!

I'm not sure if my VTOL is really easy to fly, or I got better at flying them. Probably the former.

You have to try Flying Car mode! It's like flying on Mun on Kerbin. It also makes landing on the heli pad easier.

Damselfly A rocket- and jet-powered VTOL trainer. Features: Jet engine - for efficiency Rocket engines - for precision control Landing gear - very strong and allows the craft to land safety with forward momentum Reaction wheels Probe core Top facing docking port Abort system RTG 45 parts No part clipping Craft Description: Bonus modes: Flying car: Throttle to 1/2, jet on. once the jet produces more than 60 kN of thrust, you may move up and down by firing the rocket engines in short bursts by toggling them on and off by tapping 2. The craft should float as if it is on the Mun. When not hopping, keeping the craft level allows for safer travel. Decrease the throttle slightly as fuel decreases. To stop, press 1 to cutoff the jet engine. Hovercraft: Jet on, throttle to 1/3. Tilt forward to move forward and back to move back. Use yaw and roll simultaneously for corning faster than 5 m/s. Do not pitch forward past 20 degrees and drive at the speed limit posted! Download: Damselfly

The thread is in my signature, but here's what it looks like during launch. No engines on the ET.

I like using Space Shuttles to do things, even if it's not the most efficient way. My manned Minmus mission from a stock shuttle:

On low throttle, yes.

Well, he was an intern anyway.

I finally made a successful dropship! I'm so happy right now.

Finally! I built something that I am satisfied with.

I heard that he got fired after accidentally screwing up SP2.

It wasn't not supposed to be.
