I have been working on making small as possible a combination orbital scanning prob - landing prob. Below is the picture of the latest results. A previous version was launched to Duna then Eve (in flight). I was successful in scanning Ike and landing a probe (with no remaining fuel, it did bounce but stayed together) as well a mapping Duna with a successful landing. Completed the contract which included transmitting science from the surface of both Ike and Duna. I do not think I can get any shorter then this. Two sets are staked so only one rocket is needed to get to both leaving the scanner in orbit (2nd picture below). Not a bad nights work :-)

I lost one several day ago... Playing with the big parts can be fun... (try to forget the cost and amount of resource use) :-)

A great Mun mission. Got a lot of science and now on the way home :-) The craft works quite well and slices through the atmosphere of Kirben quite well :-)

I worked on this SCANsat-Sci delivery vehicle. Delivers 2 scanning satellites to a system. A bit unique. Started with a 3 drop, 3 drop booster and ended up with a 4 drop 2drop booster. Much better use of fuel :-)

Patched together some old rusty parts for an orbiting sun station. Updated a probe deliver vehicle. The old rusty one was getting a bit worn.

Nice :-) I like them. Because the parts are rusty ("used") they really out to be discounted a lot in the cost of them (Tong in check) Nicely done! My first rusty vehicle It took a bit to get it into the air :-)

This one that is maned is going to Jool. Two others without the SatSCAN attached (all ready sent on different rocket) are going to Duna and Eve. Research is nearly max out. Am using several mods. The Farscape mod is neat but the basic engine is too fuel efficient to make it much of a challenge.

Started working with version 1.05. Made an aircraft - and is does fly Ok. A land vehicle to gather more science with very low technology at this time. Work quite well :-)

After building several different model rocket helicopter recover designed from scratch I thought what about KSP designs. Below is a test of the concept using the air break devise as helicopter blades. it works quite well through the atmosphere although some kerbals might get a bit sick from the tremendous amount of spinning. Perhaps a note needs to be stuck on the dashboard "Do not attempt right after eating" :-)

Been working a short series of jet aircraft. PJ and TJ Jets are shown. The side by side (PJ) is a real nice smooth flyer :-) A total of about 5 different jets were made last night of which the PJ and TJ were the 1st and 2nd ones in the effort.

I have been working and different types of probes. Shown below are 2 put together intended to map out a planet and a breakaway lander for atmospheric science information as well as science on the surface information. Multiple modes were used in this effort.

Did some real model rocket designing. http://imgur.com/wk3LmHw http://i.imgur.com/u213ZXz.jpg Helicopter recovery types

Huston .... I think we have a problem........ Up ... not down .... up...up.. That is better... NUTS!

The last of the Mega series - 16 probes to drop on planets/moons. the system works well. a space station called "Crazy 2" More then enough.
