He_162 · October 27, 2017

My craft in Era's, the next era will be the era of replica's I assume.

The early replica era:
At the beginning I was obsessed with developing an He-162 in the game, and soon realized such complex shapes are not possible in real scale without huge part counts, and at the time I only had a 2 core pentium @2.6ghz.

Spoiler

I'd say I did a pretty good job.

Moving on to boats and sci-fi replica's, I made my first boat & SSTO (with heavy part clipping and config editing)

Moving on to other random craft:

The stock era:

Aircraft:
I had decided to learn by trial and error how to best create aircraft with custom cockpits, and neat airframe designs.
The He- series:

Spoiler

He30
He34
(He32, 33, and 34A are all lost to corrupted save files)
He35
He36
He37
The first custom cockpit! (He38 lost to a corrupt save)
He39
First "practically" maneuverable aircraft in the He-series
He40
My favorite He-series fighter
He41
The first single engine He-series aircraft
He42
The first two seater ejection seat (still not practical)
He43
The first attempt at an entirely wing body (in the He- series, see MBB Lampyridae in replicas)
He44
A modified He44
He44v3
He45
He46
He47
The last He- series jet produced before the Rk-series came into production
He48
The first He-series jet with a proper ejection seat (now with engine clipping!) 3 engines in one!
He49
Skipped He50 (it was to be an SSTO, but was never completed)
He51
The He52 was made to test out my brand new i5-4590 processor.
He52
The He53 was made to test my i5's ability to record and edit KSP videos:

The He55 was designed to be a better He51.

Rk-5
Rk-6
One of my all time favorites:
Rk-7
Rk-8

Rockets: I'll just be documenting my quest to highest tonnage to orbit in stock KSP:

Spoiler

My first rocket, a bad N1-L3 replica (which I'll make a theme of repeating until recently)
N1
My attempt at fixing this "replica" didn't go so bad.
N2
Attempted reusable rockets (unsuccessfully) but put my first station in orbit, around the mun!
N3-L1
The station
First dedicated lifter (50 tons to orbit?)
He964
First "heavy lifter" 500 tons to orbit!
He965
First reusable lifter! (50 tons to orbit!) Also an SSTO! (or 100 tons without reuse)
He966
Attempted reusable 200 ton lifter (non reusable)
He967
Smaller 500 ton to orbit lifter (just a bigger he967.)
He968
He969 "MJ" named "MJ" due to @Majorjim! 's help in making it stable.
He969 "MJ"
The beginning of my quest to efficient rockets!
He710
He720
He730
He740
1200 tons to orbit! (1500 parts!!!!)
He1200 ton
1500 tons to orbit!!!
