[Stock] Zero Tech, one booster mountain climbing challenge!

Recommended Posts

A nice little simple one for everyone! With tweakble boosters you can now reach the mountains west of the KSC, the challenge is to see how high up the mountain you can land.

You are required to use the below stock parts, and only the below parts.

1x Mk16 Parachute

1x MK1 Pod

1x RT-10 SRB

You can tweak the SRB how ever you want in a stock legal manner, no adding fuel or OP'ing the booster.

No rolling up the mountains to gain height.

No EVA's to get that extra height.

Craft must be holding a stable position and not sliding.

The parachute must stay attacked to the command pod on landing.. if it brakes your landings too rough.

Landing must be in the Mountains Biome west of KSC.

Screen shot or it didn't happen.

Leader board:

01: 4,421mts - GuzWaatensen

02: 4,224mts - Stargate525

03: 3,824mts - sjwt

Nicely done Stargate.. back when science first came out, I spent about an hour trying to get to the mountains with a simple booster craft.. I'm glad tweakbles has made this possible!

So, this was considerably harder than i though, basically you have to hit the mountaintop ballistic there's no way to do any parachute distance timing because you're coming in so steep...

After countless tries finally got one where i was higher up than stargate....

I think whoever manages to land on the spike almost directly west of the launchpad will win this one, but i do not have the patience to try and get lucky with that shot...

Indeed, it's basically a 'Godard problem' with an extra demotion thrown in..
