Mad Rocket Scientist Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 What about that life-sized space shuttle, by zekes? Does anyone know it's part count? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Columbia Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) Hold it, you've already made a B-29, I used it for inspiration for mine.This one's a rebuild, pretty much.

Columbia Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 U-boat=860 partsHighest Achieved Speed=0.5m/sPractical Uses= none, really.Well, I guess you can make cool screenshots and do some role play, but the FPS is so low you probably wouldn't want to.Rebuilt B-29=516 partsHighest achieved speed=110 m/sIs it unique? = Not really.Practical uses = *trying* to bomb targets.

pTrevTrevs Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Well, I guess you can make cool screenshots and do some role play, but the FPS is so low you probably wouldn't want to.I actually really hope someone tries to do something with my boat, like make a cool film or series or photographs or something. It would at least assure me that I didn't waste a few weeks of my life designing, testing, and releasing a giant, fairly useless hunk o' junk.

SaturnianBlue Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Sorry for the lack of updates, I've built the Galileo probe, but I've given up on a non cheats reentry. I'll have to ignore max temp, the thing overheats the second it hits Jools atmosphere at any given speed! It also has phantom forces...

It would at least assure me that I didn't waste a few weeks of my life designing, testing, and releasing a giant, fairly useless hunk o' junk.Well actually there was an RAAF squadron 458 (mostly Australian but many other nationalities) based in North Africa that harried shipping into Axis held territory, flying Wellingtons and supported by Swordfish off a carrier, they sunk at least one u-boat and damaged possibly sunk a destroyer in one battle. I was thinking of filming it once I was finished with The Dunatian. I have the Turbine Class Destroyer Borea partially built and the Allied planes. The good thing about it is the planes were painted white, which fits in well with what you can do with KerbPaint. The destroyer is scale and with one working turret so far so will even be able to fire shots, it will have an AA gun too. Part count on the destroyer is quite low as I wasn't going to do much on the interior.They continued anti-shipping operations after this and in the middle of 1943 the squadron's crews were responsible for sinking or damaging many ships, including an Italian cruiser and a destroyer. In June, the squadron deployed to Tunisia. This was followed by a further move to Bone, in Algeria, in October 1943, from where further maritime operations were flown, including anti-submarine patrols, which resulted in several attacks. The squadron sank its first U-boat in mid-May, when U-731 was attacked by a Wellington based at Alghero, on Sardinia.[10] Edited October 2, 2015 by selfish_meme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I've made this plane to see what would happen if I added a LV1R on the main wing with FAR enabled.Turns out it's working quite well surprisingly. (The wing parts are all set to default weight and drag is not optimized yet but it still performs rather well)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tgCjQsOpp8&feature=youtu.be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Columbia Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I was flying a B-29 to bomb the SPH, when the tail tore off after the bomb sorta *hit* it.Good thing I had a gif recorder on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slam_Jones Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 For some projects, smaller is better. When all you're trying to do is find flat pieces of ground with no other fancy gimmicks, sometimes the best solutions are the simplest ones.It looks like a tube of Chapstick, but it's actually one of my favorite vessels so far. Due to its diminutive stature and weight, it can move quite quickly, and with the reaction wheel in the middle, it can flip around like a demented flying squirrel.Not much use beyond looking for flat areas, and it start overheating VERY quickly, but it works well enough for now.
