I would lie to add my entry of the: "OH GOOD GOD" Craft MK7 Using no fuel and only physic breaking powers, it demolishes everything. I hovered over the engine so you can see that I didn't use any Part editing. At the launch pad, quite stable. And then when I decouple the air intake at full throttle, THIS happens. Just a map view for comparison: And the flight log. I don't know if this properly qualifies for using a physic glitch although I think it does. it's your choice to put it in the leader-boards though.
If you have ever had a random glitch with the aerodynamics in KSP than post it here! I will even help by starting! I don't have any hard proof but I was flying a space plane before crashing it and having this control surface fling itself into a giant ark from KSC to the south pole.
As Rune just said you didn't set a starter point so we could easily win over others given we just go to, say 16,000 meters and then point in a direction. so regardless you would nearly go the whole way around Kerbin. so this challenge is almost completely pointless.
My entry. Using simple logic (and stupidity) I just decided to stick a few mainsails and LV-T30's on and see what would happen and I got this! It's kinda hard to see but there is some air-shock there, Reaching 10,000 m, Some Atmospheric flame (and a Flame-out too!) and finally landing. Didn't use any proper math or plan, total time to get to 10,000 m was 28 seconds. also Ninety-Three got 19 seconds! you gonna update the leader-boards?
My first upload so, ya. It is a simple yet agile plane capable of sharp-ish turns and equipped with Solar panels a docking port and front lights for being able to see five feet in front of yourself at night time. In flight. And landed. Not much to say about it but feedback and any comments in general would be great! Download link: http://www./?6f6m2p6ws0izqw8
I was desperate for the forums to come back on, and then we got the memory corruption. But it's still great to see you guys tried your hardest to recover any data!
