The Flatflier - a lightweight multi-purpose, multi-destination aircraft!

[Siphonophore]

After many Kerbonauts were reported dying all over the news, C7 Aerospace strived to make a strong, easy-to-use alternative for a biological Kerbal that was powerful and utterly invincible. After many explosive failures and many rolls of duct tape, the aerospace finished something that was not only light, agile and maneuverable, but carried a full load of scientific equipment onboard, yet no passengers. Lawsuits from the dead Kerbonauts' ghosts are still pending to this very day.

BEHOLD...

THE FLATFLIER!!!!!

My first craft file to be uploaded to the public, this puppy is only 1.5ms tall, yet is so agile you could do a loop-de loop nine billion times, and it even has full scientific equipment, making it ideal for a low-cost career science mission. Powered by three Juno engines and an array of static photovoltaic panels for additional power during the day, you can fly it to the mountains or fly it around the KSC. Whatever you do, DON'T LAND IT IN WATER. YOUR LIFE WILL BECOME HELL IF YOU DO SO.

I hope you have fun flying this little beauty as much as I had building it and testing it

That's an interesting design you've got there! What's the range/max speed if it?

Well I sort of took the Spirit bomber's design and then Kerbalized it a little bit. Go ahead and download it, you'll be amazed at the many uses for it

IIRC, the max speed is at least above 196m/s and it can maybe go all the way to the ice caps

 

P.S. do you like my kawaii profile pic? :3
