Yukon0009 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Black arrow, I once made it but forgot about it and lost the craft file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgt_flyer Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Yup, that's black arrow (with prospero on top ) (though the atmospheric drag is awful for replicas ) - (i lose so much delta-V to drag that i'll have to use a lot of extra delta-V to compensate for it ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pTrevTrevs Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 still got some tweakings to do on it - but looking good so far ^^ if anyone can guess http://i.imgur.com/ZQfyEQr.pngWe can see the name on the screenshot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Rocket Scientist Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 MRS, for creating round wheels, Part Angle Display is a perfect editor tool. Although finding out how to use it for creating such shapes takes a bit of time.Thanks, mine aren't quite true, but they're close enough.

FlipNascar Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 New altitude record for the uglycopter...I think this design has now run its course. The more altitude and speed I expose it to, the more its inherent design flaw inefficiencies show through. Given the lack of a reliable enough driveshaft (to get rid of the jet engine and use a real tail rotor), this design will never become practically viable... The lateral thrust just causes chaos with the handling. Although I have managed no less than 40m/s in forward flight, it should do 30+ sustained. The issue is that when it then torques itself out of "straight and level"... Well it just causes chaos in the bearing. Every now and then a section of the floor explodes and falls away. Could probably add some wheels to the underside of the decoupler to help keep it in a bit better, but it's only a problem when you're abusing it, or its getting away from you, so always.Still, it could be worse, I could have gone to space...Holler if you want the craft file. It currently runs on infinite fuel and infinite RCS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azimech Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Yeah, I'll take a look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellojoe Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 It flies really well currently, even has a cargo-bay (bomb-bay?). I'd like to see if I can make it actually into space, but for now it is strictly atmospheric.Also, I hate the thickness difference in the wings. I wish there was a way to smooth it all over better ... going to keep working and see what I can come up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon144 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) My new shuttle is looking well. I hope it will be finished and properly forum-ready by the end of the week. Until then you can enjoy some eye-candy.The last bits of work it needs is making the launch tower prettier. It has both a stock elevator up to the orbiter and a retractable arm for the crew to walk across to board the shuttle. After seeing the idea used by Inigma I thought it would be an essential part of the design. The rest of the shuttle both looks and functions gorgeously.

Azimech Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 My girl and were in a fight a few years back. I then grabbed a piece of paper and started drawing something. When i was finished I showed it to her. She was astonished, it was her dream house from the age of 12 (and we're talking 30 years later) and never told me a thing about it.Not finished, already 850 parts. The thing with the black roof is the garage, not finished and low priority. It exploded later. The top is a glass canopy, our bed's height is electrically adjustable from 30cm to 2.2m, so we can watch the sky at night. On the first floor there's a bathroom (not built yet), a storage room, a sleeping room for guests and a hallway to our bedroom. Solar panels for the illusion of curtains. Between the purple, steel beams there's glass. Anyone knows a nice spot in the mountains close to a river?Javascript is disabled.

FlipNascar Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I call her "TurboBox IIIa-11 - Hopenook IIa". She fugly, but she can fly. Flight time measured in seconds. Oh, and did I mention its less than 180 parts? Has had no optimisations whatsoever, yet. Has some issues... I really got learn how to do this things properly so I can make the rotors less fugly.

Anyone knows a nice spot in the mountains close to a river?http://imgur.com/a/tKtkpTry http://www.kerbalmaps.com/ The big river in the northwest has a huge drop-off on the sides, try a smaller lake. Also, kerbinside's launch sites are beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaturnianBlue Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 The TARDIS : Tweakscale and KerbPaint! I wanted to do a bit of something before moving to the Galileo Mission to Jupiter, and Series 9 starts n a couple days so... It's still WIP, Still missing much detail on top, but the shape is mostly done, it's based off the 2005 Tardis, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost :-Phttp://kerbalx.com/Azimech/77I-%20Bf%20109G2%2010I've redesigned the nose of the ALRM1 to give it more downforce at high speeds. I can drive it stable in rough terrain up to 50 m/s where the previous version would make a back flip.Javascript is disabled.

Frozen_Heart Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) This shuttle is giving me grief at every turn, but I'm gradually working out the problems one by one. So far I've managed to launch 9 tons to a 500km orbit, and that was with at least 6 flips on the way up...Edit: 18 tons to orbit now.
