Landge Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) @RocketPilot573:That is one sweet spaceplane! I tried downward facing jet engines but gave up because of stability issues, CoM shifting as fuel is used up. My guess is that's what happened in the last shot attempting to land My version of the Lockheed U2, i love this procedural wings mod <snip>Procedural Wings! What mod is that?

My guess is that's what happened in the last shot attempting to land The VTOL engines were on to help the plane turn faster. And for the last pic, well I pretty much drove it off the cliff.

RocketPilot573 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 ...well that was one horrific plane crash, but at least we have Halwell Kerman as a witness. Wait, WHAT!I don't even...Hey, who are you people?! And get your stupid Mk3 Cockpit out of my Cupola! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperWeegee4000 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Why is there a KIA screen? I thought those weren't in the game anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketPilot573 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Why is there a KIA screen? I thought those weren't in the game anymore.No idea, maybe because the extra 3 Kerbals in the Cupola were killed in the plane crash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushroomman Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 If you happen to have the Lazor System mod, I think it teleports kerbals into nearby craft if they're about to die. Even if there's not enough space in said craft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babalas Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 That is one sweet spaceplane! I tried downward facing jet engines but gave up because of stability issues, CoM shifting as fuel is used up. My guess is that's what happened in the last shot attempting to land The trick I use is to build my plane, find the CoM, and then attach the fuel tanks radially as the last step. Keeps things shifting around too much. I can then attach a downward facing engine that I point a few degrees forward to brake and perform a short landing and take off.This craft (the Ugly Bushwhacker) did a global tour to all the sites. Built in kethane refueling and capable of travelling 1.3km/sThough now days the B9 VTOL engines makes designing something like this far simpler.
