Jaanus Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I was building rocket planes today and thought these parts would be fun, so I made them. Enjoy.Download:[glow=red,2,300]http://www.jaanus.cc/files/wing+bomb.rar[/glow] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuggernautOfWar Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Do these wings actually do something or are they just for show as the vanilla ones are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWLarsen Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 The standard wings aren't for decoration, they really do stabilize your craft. I hope these wings allow for more control, though, I always have trouble controlling my rockets with the small wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaanus Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 They're twice as stable as the vanilla ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke_luke_em Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 These wing really make it next to impossible to steer your craft. The vanilla wings do this to but not as much. Yes wings should make the craft more stable but it should also make it easier to control, not harder. They look bitchin though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbo Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Yay! I've been waiting for something like this so making shuttles is easier! Nice to see Jaanus has gotten into this game after Gmod! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Lz Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Whoa, those wings look stylin'.Also, Kerbal Aircraft Program anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
best4bond Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Saw this on Facepunch, Looks awesome, But i cannot get my one to launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fauxjargon Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Saw this on Facepunch, Looks awesome, But i cannot get my one to launch.Kerbal Aircraft Program would be awesome - the only thing that needs to be changed is that wings need to be able to provide lift.A jet engine/jet fuel tank could be added that would have an extremely long burn time - it would be identical to the liquid fuel/ liquid engine otherwise - maybe less powerful.

Satellife Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 This is why I love the KSP community. 'I decided that there was a definitive lack of bitchin' lower-atmospheric vehicles capable of deploying gravity-influenced capsules, so I went and made one.'

greatorder Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 the ideas people come up with on these forums are worse (sanity-wise) than on the DF forums. next thing we know, people will make a 'digging machine' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt'n Skunky Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 the ideas people come up with on these forums are worse (sanity-wise) than on the DF forums. next thing we know, people will make a 'digging machine'Some of my more spectacular rocket failures would qualify as 'digging machines' based on how hard they hit the ground and how big the explosion was.

Anyways, for the lower thrust, longer burn jet engine, I could whip up one for you if you would like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
innociv Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 They look great, but we need a 'lift' component for these to work. How they work now seems to just stabilize.If you put wings up at the front, the weight actually makes you pitch down, it seems to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEBtheTHRILLMASTER Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 How does I use. .rar file confuse me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feldopropane Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 How does I use. .rar file confuse me. you just download winwrar or something similar to that and you place the downloaded folders in the parts folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I love the bomb, but it should be anchorable by the back, so you can put it on top of your rocket for suicide missions!Also, the wings should stabilize more to the sides so you wont have to roll as much and risk making it all crash.

mixinghoney Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 are we able to make a plane with them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esd Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Made a pretty functional spaceplane from those wings and the Excelsior-800 engine. Stable and controllable enough to fly a circle, but doesn't have great range: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johannmaximus Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I'm getting a problem with the wings, well I think it's the wings. Every time I exit KSP, then reenter it, when I select a craft with the wings, the craft comes up, but the wings aren't there. In the build a ship area, the name is changed, and everything is in one stage without a stage title. I can highlight stuff, but I can't move anything, add anything, or remove anything. In launch mode, it's stuck on the opening frame, and I can't do anything but highlight parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
