Can I start from the launchpad rather than the runway?

Yes, you can.

[Aphobius]

I might enter this, please no ground supports, as they would count as losing parts.

You didn't say it had to be a soft landing.

17 seconds, 5 parts

And here I was expecting 'Chutes to be disqualified. So I made a soft lander and beat my own time by a second.

Cool !

I will update the leaderboard.

[Aphobius]

6 seconds, 10 parts

6 seconds, 10 parts

I did not think that was even possible !

You did not use F3 for the proper timeset, but the video clearly shows a 6 sec. landing so I will pass this.

I don't think any more people wanna compete now......Unless you will give us your craftfile so we can try to beat your time (rules don't say anything about building the craft yourself or copy designs.)

I wil give it a new category for pilot skills.

You can easily replicate it, the only part that might not be clear ... I use that toroidal fuel tank between the reaction wheels.

Lol, I use that trick aswell.

Sometimes even stack a few of them.
