Bilfr3d Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I was going to make a craft that used the pre-coolers, but it ended up being a potato and I couldn't get it out of kerbin atmo xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John FX Posted May 6, 2015 Author Share Posted May 6, 2015 I was going to make a craft that used the pre-coolers, but it ended up being a potato and I couldn't get it out of kerbin atmo xDThat is one reason I allowed infinite fuel so you could launch odd things very slowly (like under 100m/s if needed) then burn solar retrograde once out of the atmosphere.I put mine on top of a kerbodyne large tank and a KR-2L and got it near the sun with that. I had a second maneuvering engine for when things got too hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MunGazer Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 This challenge is way out of my current comfort zone. Most of my experience is in aircraft. But I will give it a go eventually. Right now I'm planning an adventure to Mt. Keverest for that challenge and I'm hard at work on the associated crafts, again mostly involving aircraft. Just wanted to give you a heads up, since you seem to be a good fellow, that I am interested in the challenge, I'm just frying other fish at the moment. I wish more of the challenges got attention than just one or two mainstream ones, even though they're awesome too. Do you think there's a correlation between cool looking award badges and the popularity of challenges? Lol. I like the cool badges tho. It's fun to gain a sense of accomplishment. Plus, these challenges give me motivation to strive harder for certain performance goals than I would on my own. I'm not so sure I want a signature that eats up an entire Web page every time I post. I might re-scale my badge images to be smaller if that ever happens. A cool badge for yours, for hard core stock entrants that do well, could be like a symbol of a hawk's head with a sun behind it or something. Chicks totally dig these badges.

John FX Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 (edited) Why would I want to be followed by hawk chicks You may have a point with the badges, everyone likes cool badges.That's cool, challenges are supposed to stretch your KSP playing, I'm having a fun time experimenting with the drag competition as I rarely make wheeled vehicles and slowing down and simply staying on the runway is...interesting.I'll be happy staying at the top of the leaderboard, hehe.As always I look forward to your entry eventually.
