well you get into orbit in order to cover more ground, quicker, with less fuel, than staying in the atmosphere, In order to bomb a target, you deorbit so you reach the target.

As for mods, i have a few installed, damnedaerospace&robotics, C7 forwardwings&mk2bicoupler, mechjeb(please add this), Carts.

[Tim_Barrett]

I will be able to create that later tonight.

Tim could you make an a10? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:A-10_Thunderbolt_II_In-flight-2.jpg

Not trying to rival you but IM OUT OF IDEALS I need something to build while im on my 6 hour flight tommorow

[Tim_Barrett]

Okay then, let\'s see who can build matt a better shuttle then.

[Tim_Barrett]

It\'s a bit more conventional then I\'d like it to be, but it works because it is simple and effective. I present the Ticus Shuttle Mk1

Once you get some air under the shuttle at the end of the runway, there is a clean pitch up to get into a nice 100k orbit using mechjeb.

After enlarging the orbit to that size, it has at least two full rocket fuel tanks left to de-orbit. I didn\'t put on 'detachable fuel tanks' due to lack of specification, so I made sure to keep a node open in the back and plenty of space to attach any payload. Normal bombs can also be fitted under the hull, as for most craft.

It also glides perfectly and is very fun to fly. An adorable perfect little beginner piloting craft!

Mainly stock. Also incorporates most of your preferred mods, the forward swept wing, and mechjeb.

That\'s very generic and has been created so many times before on this forum... I could, but that would probably be a waste of time because there are only a few efficient ways to construct such a unique but simple craft.

[cardgame]

I\'d like to request a light, agile and forgiving stunt helicopter. I\'ll be flying it with a joystick if that matters.

*snip*

It looks great, it Flys great, its got a great name ( i see what you did there ) Its brilliant! 10/10, 5 Stars for you!

Alrighty.

Check out my CK Scout Helicopter MkI - link in my signature.

[Tim_Barrett]

Another very simple and easy-to-fly design for this one.

Presenting the Ace Light Helicopter.

To make it fly better than any other helicopter, I angled the rotor slightly forward like a real helicopter would, so it can fly more smoothly than anything else in the sky.

Fun to fly in with elegant style. Hope you enjoy!

[Tycoonier]

I have a request also, If you\'re interested.

I would like a VTOL plane that (preferably, if it cant be done don\'t bother) uses DamnedRobotics rotatotrons to turn the jet VTOL. Add a small (Basic Stock) Jet engine so that it has forward power while going VTOL. It would be nice if the engines on the VTOL bit are the turbofan engines (though once again, for simplicity use something else if needed). Please only use these mods...Damned Robotics, Damned aerospace (If needed), and Mechjeb. Thankyou! (In enough detail or would you like me to re-iterate something?)

[cardgame]

Thanks Tim, \'tis a good helo but my skills at flying it leave something to be desired.

[Tim_Barrett]

Flexibility of design is directly related to size in this game, so for something special.do.you want me to make a large one? My apologies if your criteria weren\'t met, but I don\'t have the skills to.create my own parts

[Mynorus]

So, Tim. I hear you have stuff. Do you want more stuff? I don\'t care about your opinion, take it!

This is my prototype copter, it\'s still testing. It\'s pretty good, but taking off is tricky.

When landing, slightly glide in. Again, pretty tricky. Slightly modeled it off your helicopter design. Brand it, rename it, include it in your fleet, whatever you want with it! I don\'t care! (Just include me in the credits-thinger)

[Tim_Barrett]

I appreciate your help, but I already have an avatar-style helicopter made a while back when .15 came out.

[cardgame]

Okay, getting more of a hang of the Ace LH now. Flew around the launch tower and VAB/Tracking Station, lots of fun, but it\'s pretty much impossible to hover, unless I\'m missing something.

Oh, I forgot to mention, it\'s not made for full throttle otherwise it will flip backward. Nothing I can do until someone makes a realistic gimbal-like rotors.

[cardgame]

I found that one out ;P

~35-40% thrust is a good spot.

[Tim_Barrett]

Not sure if slow day or everyone is busy making their own corporation - in that case, we need more orders.

[cardgame]

If you\'re up for a challenge, I\'ll place an order for a blimp warship that can achieve 100m/s of level or near-level flight, and as heavily armed as possible.

Alrightypants, but I will have to get the mod first. I will admit I have only tried that plugin once, so this should be quite awesome.

[cardgame]

Addendum if you find that trivial: 360 degree turn in less than 30 seconds, and a precise way to aim the weaponry.

VTOL\'s on all sides at every angle, and the laser sights from a sunbeam laser.

I may not be able to finish until tomorrow, though.
