Well shoot. My computer is sort of half home-made an d there are compatibility issues with KMP. But please do record it if you do this stuff.

I sure will, sorry you won't be joining us. ;.;

The Equinox looks like quite the beast!! I haven't had anything good come out of my hangar since the last stock cargo shuttle I made, I need to get back on doing some VTOL's or I fear I'm going to forget how to do them!!

We need a Bison Mk2, and we certainly need more VTOLs! :D I think my own output is going to slow down over the coming months, dare I say it I'm pretty happy with the state of the fleet at the moment, and am finding fewer issues to fix with new designs. I guess that's a good thing really. :)

myfirstVTOL.jpg (that's the craft name)

The first flight ended in a large explosion, this was the second :D

Don't they always end in explosions(or until you get bored)The first ones always look the same.

I won't be able to fly till tomorrow.

If it's not exploding enough, you're doing something wrong, or well, you know what I mean. :P It might be worth building a bit bigger to start with, the smaller a dropship is the more fiddly, temperamental and explody it tends to be! :)

Well done, those things must go like a scolded cat! What are going to name your creations? :)

You should make a ZIP file containing all of your SSTOs, would be really handy after reinstalling, etc.

I do see where you're coming from but keeping them seperate makes it easier for me to keep an eye on download stats etc, and will hopefully make people more inclined to read the manual. Sorry about that. :(

Oh, my mistake I meant I can't get in the Scarab!

Ah okay! Well to get in the seat you don't actually have to be standing on top of the pylon you just have to be close by. So climb up the ladder as far as you can then you'll have the option to right click on the seat and board the craft. :)

If you ever run out of ideas for VTOL's cupcake, try making something that can land on Tylo and come back. Tylo landers are an art and a science and it would be cool to see someone like you make one that's really compact and light because most Tylo landers are heavy and I think you can excel in this and other such words of encouragement.

I don't know what differentiates a dropship from other ships. Is it just a ship you drop at your destination? I'm not an expert on these matters.

The term 'drop ship' is, in science fiction, reserved for short range craft that are usually tender to a larger mother ship.

They are typically troop or heavy cargo carriers.

If you have seen 'aliens' remember the ship that they use to land on LV-426? That is a drop ship from the Sulaco mothership.

Damn that's a good movie.

I would class it as a ship that have a single stage,horizontal cockpit,and usually only vertical engines.

Btw, how do you put images on a post?

Firstly you want to upload your images to Imgur http://imgur.com/, then just copy the image link in your browser, click on the image icon (4th along after the smiley face) and paste the link. You can do albums as well, but I've forgotten how to do that. :P

Cupcake I have an SSI KMP server up:

ssi.kerbalcentral.com port 2076

Enjoy!

Yay, how are you guys getting on with it? Oh and what would you say the minimum part count is for vessels interacting in the same area? :)

How you do it is you take the albums web link.

For example: http://imgur.com/a/qCEso#0 and suround it with tags the say

http://imgur.com/a/

and the #0 and it will show the album

For Example, my album showing the first few iterations of a Grand Tour Ship that I want to do
