Born from the research programs LRI-1 and LRI-2, this beast of an aircraft take to the sky\'s well. After the flight of LRI-2 to Kersica, a russain kerbal wanted to go further so he designed this, a large bomber. Hell of a fun thing to fly, this aircraft has the ability to fly on 3 engines, and can servive landings no one else can. Note, does not have enough range to go around the world. Yet...

Haven\'t got them on in those pics. The pics were done, 2-3 hours before I put the topic up.

Then, post em?

[Guest GroundHOG-2010]

Nah.

[cardgame]

Quite unstable actually. I don\'t think those two tiny tailfins are enough. Turning is a bitch and knocks you so far off course from wobbling...

[Tim_Barrett]

It was designed off a very stable craft, I have been trying to fix that problem, and have done so. The main problem on my mind at the moment is the fact that when you at about 2-3 tanks per engine used up, these are all at the front. so the plane is lighter at the front than the back and wants to go up.

Only noticed the problem when flying to kersica and back 2 times. Didn\'t make it, fell into the sea.

[Tim_Barrett]

Wouldnt that take a long time to get there and back? Its pretty slow, and from the looks it cant glide easily.

[Guest GroundHOG-2010]

get the thing up at 10 km at you will be going at 300-400 m/s. Its fast enough and stable enough. And the thing glides.

Where exactly is Kersica? Is it the Australia of Kerbin, or is it that tiny island just north of the KSC?

It\'s the island.

[cardgame]

Oh, well that\'s nothing as a unit of distance if you go up in the atmosphere. If you\'re below 5km the whole way it\'s a different story.

[Guest GroundHOG-2010]

Actually its an island up the coast to the northeast/east at about 75-80 degrees from kerbal space centre. I built the thing to bomb Kuba but couldn\'t get there with the plane. Also I lags my computer.

Actually, I retract my statement. I flew this thing up to around 20-30 km where the air is thinner... posted, then flew one of my own smaller and what I thought of as very stable planes up that far - it wobbled to hell and back too. It could use some more stability, but it\'s not as unstable as I said it was.

Yes, that\'s what I was referring to. If you view the obrital map at ~5km above the KSC you can see it for a second when the map reverts back to a view of the plane. Only a 2-3 minute trip. I flew at least three times that distance in 5-7 minutes when I accidentally flew up to 20km.

Is Kuba that antipodean island continent?

[Guest GroundHOG-2010]

I think is name is Kuba. Its the group of 3 large islands south west of KSC. Its about ten times the distance to kuba than to Kersica.

[cardgame]

You know what would be nice? A map, since we have one ingame.

I\'ve drawn up something in Paint for basic illustration purposes.

[Guest GroundHOG-2010]

basicly. Ill post the fan made map bellow. I have also tryed flying to kerpan without luck.

[cardgame]

No name for that ridiculously narrow isthmus connecting Kerfrica with New Kork? I\'d have thought that\'d be a famous landmark.

[Johno]

Go ahead, sir - the honour is yours!

Good lord, you\'ve created a monster. Flying wing of DOOM!

Just like Hugo Junkers wanted!!! Its my solution to long range flight. Thanks for making the pack.
