Kerbol Prime

Kerbal minivan added!

I present the Valkon Planes from builder BeefTenderloin! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Just finished the Valkron series of aircraft - The Valkron and Sea Valkron Valkron http://www./view/m2viwd2q90uhmzg/Valkron.craft The Valkron is a stable, single-engined jet, with decent stock range (it can go to the continent to the east of booster bay and back.) It's stable, maneuverable, and features tilted leading wing edges that allow for shorter take off distance. Sea Valkron http://www./view/vx0kmupqn3v4hx6/Sea_Valkron.craft The Sea Valkron is a modified version of the Valkron that can perform both water and runway landings. It is slightly slower, and less maneuverable than the Valkron, due to the large flotation devices slung underneath the fuselage. For water landings, the following process should be followed. 1) Cut engine power. 2) Begin to glide, holding a nose-up position. 3) Let your speed drop to at least 50m/s. 4) Level out, and try to hit the water with minimal downwards velocity. 5) Hold position upon impact, and once you begin to decelerate, allow the craft to tip backwards. Do not let it tip forwards. For takeoffs, simply throttle up to max and hold pitch up. Hope these are satisfactory! But wait! Hold the dang phone! For the low low price of only £9999.99 you can get not just 2 valkons and sea valkons, but we will JUMBO size the second set!! Jumbo Valkon http://www./view/rxxs55h2uuuhwoc/Jumbo_Valkon.craft The Jumbo Valkon - For when flying three Valkons in close formation is just too difficult! The Jumbo Valkon features a 3-man cockpit, two engines (that's 100% more engines than the standard Valkon!) and tri-composite wings with a tilted leading edge. It features easy-2-go takeoff technology; if you just activate SAS and throttle up, the JV will lift up into the air with no control input. Jumbo Sea Valkon http://www./view/aa2l3l5oaago063/Jumbo_Sea_Valkon_wu.craft The Jumbo Sea Valkon is adapted in a similar way to the Sea Valkon, by having flotation devices mounted underneath, and a counterbalance added to the tail. As such, the landing process is similar. 1) Cut engine power. 2) Begin to glide, holding a nose-up position. 3) Let your speed drop to at least 50m/s. 4) Level out, and try to hit the water with minimal downwards velocity. 5) Hold position upon impact, and once you begin to decelerate, allow the craft to tip backwards. Do not let it tip forwards. For takeoffs, throttle to max and hold pitch up. SEE BELOW for the rest. Note on the Jumbo Sea Valkon - Working on a new wing to remove the need for the rolling maneuver. EDIT: Released Updated the wings to the Jumbo Sea Valkon. Takeoff procedure is now hold pitch up until around 25m/s, quickly press pitch forward, then continue pressing pitch up. The craft should rise out of the water.

I've recently downloaded kethane and have started a new save yesterday based around collecting it. Assets: -GGS (green gold scanner) 1: Kerbin scanner -GGS 2: Munar scanner -GGS 3: Minmus scanner All three scanners are in polar orbits. -KSP (kethane sampler probe) 1: Landed in GreenLand Mun deposit to test kethane load -KSP 2: Landed in Sun Valley Mun deposit -RKM (robotic kethane miner) 1: Small probe lander with 2000 liters of kethane storage, landed in GreenLand Deposit Upcoming: -GGCS (green gold command station) 1: 4-kerbal station to be in a 50 km Mun orbit. Size: "small" -RKM 2: Minmus miner -RGGCs (robotic GGSC) 1: Small station around Minmus to store/refine kethane. -MKM (manned kethane miner) 1: Large mun miner (Sun Valley)

I see. That explains a lot.

Today's releases! Crafts built by: Ace of spades First up, the C-4d plane, a high speed turbofan powered craft. Careful, it's very unstable and likes to fly out of control. Also, watch the engines. Second, the F-1056 craft. This plane is a twitchy high-speed jet that is agile. Overly agile. Next up, the Am-1 Transport. it carries 4? kerbals in the back. Another rover, the GK-1 is a small kerbal cart. Special Instructions: disable steering on back wheels and disable motors on front wheels. Finally, the HS-1 Plane. It's a modified C-4d with much more stability.

Any feedback on the revised edition?

Re-built the Kerion! Now with SLS launcher!

Thanks for the feedback! I plan on releasing a new version this friday, with a more SLS-like launcher and improvements overall, namely more accuracy, etc.

Yea all credit goes to temstar and his awesome launchers. Hope he doesn't mind.

lol totally misunderstood it.

Added a link!

Wait...if it doesn't have wings it isn't technically a plane is it? Nitpicking aside, its awesome!

Never thought of this. I usually used radial attachment point things to make engine clusters, then stuck some girders/struts down the middle and put some structural panels as "fairings". This is way simpler.

Its the same for me. The new terrain actually doesn't cause more trouble...that is other than the loooong pause with SOI transfers.

Amazing. Love them all. I'm terrible at rover making myself, let alone these cars.

A mobile craft builder isn't a bad idea, but I imagine there are quite a few difficulties. It might become more sensible in the future.

Powered landings...I usually slam into the ground at 200 m/s.

CEO Note: Isn't it great when your employee makes a showcase for you instead of you having to type every...single...letter? It's the little things.

Here's my form of safety: Parachutes "Who needs them LES doohickys when ya got chutes? They totally idiotproof!" -Association Director, shortly before 3 pilots died when the rocket fell back on the pad and chutes failed to open.

Squad tortures us with these sneak peaks but they're just too... Awesome

Its like a heli! Ahh KSP physics...I mean bugs.

I don't "hate" it but sometimes lag is annoying. It's mainly the terrain (unholy laggalicious water!!!!). Other than that don't really dislike things. Oh wait there's also the long load times between Editor, Space Center, etc. Especially transitions to into Munar SOI. I guess I can't blame SQUAD, its an alpha after all. We also have unity restricitions.

On my first landing, there was not enough fuel, so I killed the three kerbals by using the remaining fuel to crash them into the surface. It's not cruel, its saving money...okay maybe it is a liiittttllle bit unethical.
