Recommended Posts

A simple challenge designed to test your patience and craft design skills.

For this challenge, you will need to design an amphibious craft that can travel across all the various terrains and oceans on Kerbin (excluding the extreme slopes of the mountain ranges). Here are the rules:

[LIST]
[*]Vanilla craft only.
[*]Vehicle cannot leave the surface of Kerbin; must be on the ground on land and cannot be totally submerged while crossing bodies of water.
[*]Can be Kermaned or unkermaned.
[*]Must start from and return to the KSC.
[*]Must use either a polar trek (north to south) OR equatorial trek (deviation for mountain peaks acceptable).
[*]Must take a screen shot per-departure and of the vehicle recovery screen (showing mission data) upon return.

Wasn't aware of that challenge. Earlier today someone asked me what project was I currently working on and when I told them. Their response was "hey, you should really set that up as a challenge..." so... here it is!

I built one specifically for this task, one of my proudest creations. It's a stock truck but I didn't want to drive/sail all the time thus I used Mechjeb.
It's not the fastest but could do a 55 m/s for a long time, and refuel itself.
