Roflcopterkklol Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) Two new planes i have come up with, SSTO? How about SSTM's. Cant forget the Goliath mk4 VTOL for them missions where you need to land on a planet without an atmosphere. http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/92529-Single-stage-to-Mun-Interplanetary-spaceplanesIf anyone wants to know more about them.

O-Doc Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I've been having a look at SP+ in anticipation of v0.25. Here's a little thing came up with which I'll have to re-create when we get the new parts. It has enough dV to put 5T payload into orbit around Duna, Eve any maybe even Jool. I'm loving the potential new geometries this is going to provide in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderfound Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Just to prove that neither mod pack parts or intake spamming is necessary for a quality spaceplane:Runway to orbit in 4 minutes, 5 seconds. All stock, two intakes feeding three engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overfloater Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Nice one, Doc.Boy I can't wait for that update xD I've been neglecting interplanetary crew transport, perhaps this SP+ stuff will give me some new ideas... :]===========For now I'll just contribute this:Astroliner IX "Altair"Light cargo transport for Laythe/Duna.Also video: Craft files are in my repository, on my signature.Just to prove that neither mod pack parts or intake spamming is necessary for a quality spaceplane:http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah120/craigmotbey/Kerbal/screenshot117_zpsba8ad72b.jpgRunway to orbit in 4 minutes, 5 seconds. All stock, two intakes feeding three engines.Intake spamming is not necessary at all for making a spaceplane. Intakes at all aren't necessary!Intake spamming is a bit essential though, for making interplanetary planes that don't detach any of their parts during the entire mission.

Megalodon 720 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 My first ever SSTO that actually made it to orbit, just one week ago. I will make more of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've dialed it back to about 6-8 RAMs per turbo. That craft you see has only 4 RAMs hidden in the body. Don't tell anyone. Don't forget, Wanderfound is on FAR, Overlfloater and Me are stock aero. That cargo bay door is sweet. I'm gonna have to mess around with it some time. Edited September 8, 2014 by O-Doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry didn't read Wander's signature before :] 4 RAMs hidden in the body.:-OI'm gonna P.M. everyone about this!!!Just kidding, good thing no one knows how many intakes are in my earliest crafts' fuel tanks, before i started messing with wings.

SP+ parts are going to be a godsend (but I'm reserving myself for when they are in the stock folder). You can bet your ass I will pick something from this one when I finally start messing with it! Probably that front, it is really, really cool.Rune. Reminds me of the Homeworld interceptors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I thought i'll probably suck big time at landing xD back then landing about 2 miles away from KSC was good enough for me ===I just remembered something - Kerbals have weight And I flew this ship empty. I wonder if it's gonna handle as good when loaded... Edited September 9, 2014 by Overfloater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarknee Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 (edited) Hi all ! Let me introduce to you my newest small, funny, fast, nice looking, crew transfer SSTO plane. The SCUBLO (meaning "kite" bird in ancient french celtic language).Able to safely and quickly bring 3 kerbals + 1 pilot up to 150x150km orbit and return safely to KSC with remaining liquid fuel.Featuring Life Support, Electricity and balanced RCS.Javascript is disabled. View full albumEdit : Following Jolly_Roger's advice, i'll soon add a link to the ship file. You'll need B9 and procedural wings mods.

Fellow314 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 That's some impressive dV in that package.Primarily due to massively cheaty air-intake shenanigans.
