PodRacer, Fully Stock No Mods

This is my first post on here, and I'm only 50 hours into this game but I've spent many times that watching amazing things this community has built. 

Funnily enough this is my first plane design that is fully 100% stable and can reach the upper stages of the atmosphere before burning out. It cruises at about 380 km/s in the lower atmosphere while maintaining full control and responsiveness. It also has enough fuel to carry a single Kerbal around Kerbin twice at full throttle. Plus as a bonus you can detach the main engines in the front to RP as Sebulba!

 

I like it because it feels like a podracer, its turns are a little bit slower but it makes up for it with amazing spin control.

 

What do you guys think? Any tips for screenshotting, making the build better, or just any feedback? I'd love to see what you guys think of my weird little thing I've built. Thanks!

HI there,

 It looks quite good for a first posted craft! I would turn off the aero drag display when taking pics and try to post pics directly to the thread. Take this part of the Imgur code: BkoFn and paste it into the little box that opens when you click on the white [ i ] in the black box far right of the toolbar above. Other than that, thanks for posting, it looks like fun to fly!

A pleasure. I had a closer look at the pics and it is really nicely made! A pod racer is not an easy thing to make. Can we have a download link for it?

What's the best way to share it? I'm unfamiliar with the whole process.

Upload the craft file to KerbalX. Then link the page here. Its as easy as dragging and dropping the .craft file.
