Because black makes everything look cooler! Kricket VTOL & Klipper SSTO

[23278]

Two crafts I'm making to pass the time at work. I may still tweak them before the day is over. As always, VTOL is much easier to fly with a joystick. Air-hogging "Less wings more powah!" SSTO has a fuel routing issue on the top tanks thanks to excess part clipping, hence the name.

Kinda looks like something that's "Cupcake..." inspired. Nevertheless, black does make everything look better.

Robocop is due in 2014, anyway looks cool.

Cupcake did influence the little VTOL. It's balanced compact design! Funny thing is I had been building diamond shaped craft forever, but never thought of it as VTOL platform until I played with his.

I'm working on another SSTO. Best yet, IMO. I'll post a link when it's done.

Sure! I'm more of a builder than a flyer though. At work my computer has terrible framerate so it makes long term testing a PITA.

I bet he's Bruce Wayne after Dark Knight Rises.
