The Destroyer Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Do want to see this!I only see one pic?Just flew it up and dropped the RAT at the landing pad? How did it go?It went well, aside from teh fact that the baloon was so heavy to turn, that i had to jettison, and I forgot to turn RCS for that I also landed upsidedown, but I managed to turn over.EDIT:Do want to see this!I only see one pic?Well, thats because he didnt want to upload em all.

Can you post a screen shot?also using the balloon slightest turn my ship just goose eggs on me completely falls apart as if the glue stopped working lolYeah, structural integrity is tricky. Adding at least one strut helps a lot. I have found the standard and octo balloons to be the most reliable. The next update, coming ~Friday, tends to not fall apart so easily.

medikohl Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I'm just going to add that I would love to see a deploy-able version of this for interplanetary travel.(thinking round ones that deploy like the parachutes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Videogama Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Well, I made this silly thing as one of those 'go really fast and really high on jets!' ideas. It also is mechjebby. Anyways, a little bird told me to post it here.((Yes that's a lot of pictures, but awesome reentry effects ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooligan Labs Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 I can't believe how much was lost when the forums went down! So many things that were shared...Well, I am going to start posting what I can! If anyone wants to put their old stuff back up, do so! I put the latest video on the front page: Videogama, very cool new screenshots! Are you sure it wasn't a little octopus though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mastodon Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Hooligan,as a huge airship nerd, I love your mod. I have played around with it for a while but put it aside to do my large Mun expedition. however, as soon as I am done with that I am planning on doing an airship expedition (haven't decided where yet) and I was wondering if you could point me to some mods that complement your airship mod, specifically in terms of propulsion (I already have the airship anchor). it seems that what the game gives you is inadequate (jets only work for Kerbin and Laythe, rockets are too heavy and fuel inefficient, ion engines too weak). I have seen some mods for propellors but I don't know what I should go with. btw, I am going for a big airship. probably carrying at least two rovers and maybe some other stuff, like a prefab base.

Hooligan Labs Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Firespitter is the active airplane mod. There's some pretty fancy stuff in there!Yes, Snjo has both fueled and electric propellers! I used propellers in my Jool Colonizing / Jool Bungie Jumping adventures. ... btw, I am going for a big airship. probably carrying at least two rovers and maybe some other stuff, like a prefab base.Cool! Included in the mod should be vessels for going to Jool, Laythe, Duna and Eve. I have a video here... I think those are the largest ships that you could send into orbit with a single launch. I highly recommend that you assemble the airship in orbit if it will be much larger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
