EpicSpaceTroll139 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I did some work on my Apollo replica. Not enough to post pictures about. I also started working on craft for a grand tour mission. My vacuum lander has batteries for landing legs. What could possibly go wrong? I was amused by the complaint of "High Transonic / Supersonic Drag!" Thanks FAR! I'll remember that next time I think of trying to make a Kerbal go supersonic in a seat using an ion engine. Minute hand now works on my clock... Theoretically at least. Haven't tested that.

Holy excrements, is that clockwork in KSP? That's insane. I beg you for a craft file download, if not now then when you're finished. Hm. Do you think it's possible to build an analog computer in KSP? Anyone know of a way to reliably write, store and read bits of data using stock parts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know of a way to reliably write, store and read bits of data using stock parts? I imagine that it could be done, given enough moving parts. If anyone could do it, it would be @EpicSpaceTroll139. And back on the train of doing stuff never before done in stock KSP (I think), I'm working on a probe and drogue refueling system for my KC-46. Basically, the tube has a bit that rolls from front to back docking in either position. There are jet engines to push it forward, and the drag from the fins should bring it back easily enough. Here's my fuselage work for the KC-46 so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't have the slightest idea how to do it xD. I get the feeling even a 4 function calculator would have 1000+ parts lol. Anyways, nice work with the KC-46!

Very tedious work and worked only in space. It was very slow as well. However ... I've created a mod which has the potential to grow and create logic building blocks. Not yet released.

I'd like a gadget that would just let me program action groups, need it for controlling disco lights in my nightclub... Working on some engines, maybe make a replica of the Перспективный авиационный комплекс фронтовой авиации. 310 LF and 17.0 intake air each... Trying some stuff... It doesn't look like a PAK FA yet..

That's relatively easy to create but ... you'd need to study the principles so you can adapt the parameters. Not very difficult though.

Btw I like your Citroentje, love the way you started with a frame and did it stock. Edited April 22, 2017 by Triop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I reprogrammed stock KSP modules to do what I want. So ... anyone can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triop Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 T-50 is a big bird... Upgraded engines, 350 LF and 23.0 intake air each. No idea where this is going....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qzgy Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 @Triop - Have you considered using normal elevon controls for the front controls? It seems that elevon 3 could work for that - or the slanted one maybe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qzgy Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 (edited) Yeah something like that. You can also stick on d-structural wing (the small delta one) and align it to the rest of the wing to make it nice and straight after clipping the elevon into the fuselage a little bit. That is probably what I would do. Alternatively, another elevon could be put there to make it square, but I'm not sure how it would look deployed.. Also, you're welcome Edited April 22, 2017 by qzgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkOwl57 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 BREAKING NEWS: Hostages taken by terrorists! Earlier today, KASA announced that Valentina Kerman and Bob Kerman, 2 high-profile figures at the KSC, have been kidnapped by the HAWX gang. The prisoners, which also include 2 other pilots, are being held at the KSC Island, where, according to KSC Brass, 3 rovers and 2 AAA guns are stationed. An X-25 Predator has been dispatched, and will take off momentarily at time of press Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
