BSC: Rocket-powered VTOL - We have a winner!

[Xeldrak]

You guys are terrible impatient, do you know? Give me a week or so...

[HazelPine]

sorry... but that's how cool your challenges are, no sooner than one is done we want another! pls take this in a very good way!

[MiniMatt]

Many - very well deserved - congratulations to Giggleplex, and commiserations to Tarmenius and in particular Ravenchant as the vote count in no way reflects upon the quality of your craft.

Many thanks as always to Xeldrak for organising and running a fine competition which has again taught me new stuff whilst somehow also being supremely good fun.

As for the next one - if we knew what that was now we'd all be busy building ahead of the start time Although personally hoping for a certain skycrane

[Xeldrak]

Hm...I fear a certain skycrane was allready done.

[HazelPine]

We had that one before this one MiniMatt... sorry nobody warned you... I'm hoping the next one is a ship I never use or something. like the ION probe.

[MiniMatt]

Hm...I fear a certain skycrane was allready done.

AAAARRGGGGHHH!!!!

[panzerknoef]

I was hoping for something like SpaceShuttle-alikes. Don't know if that would be possible though

[astropapi1]

Congratulations, Giggleplex!

[Andrew Hansen]

Congratulations to the winners! Giggeplex won for the third time, and he deserved it. His craft was amazing!

By the way, Xeldrak, maybe next time you could do some weird craft like the Kerbal 2! Who knows what everyone will post for that (I don't).

[Xeldrak]

Something like SpaceShuttle might be an idea, when we are through with the stock crafts that come with the game. I'm still thinking what I will do with the challenge once we are done with them.

Well a real problem with the Kerbal 2 is that it is.....completely senseless. Usually I think you guys get what the craft in question is supposed to be, thats also why I post the inspirational pictures. But the K2 is just.....nonesense. Especially since we allready had a small lifter rocket and a heavy rocket.

[DisarmingBaton5]

But the K2 is just.....nonesense.

I always thought of it (well, since it arrived in KSP) as a trainer craft, to teach players about different control types and controls. (RCS, Torque, Engine vectoring, Thrust, etc.)

[Ravenchant]

Giggleplex, MiniMatt, Tarmenius - congratulations! It was a deserved victory

The Kerbal 2 seems like a stand-in for Little Joe, though. In which case RCS is nonsense, agreed.

[Giggleplex777]

Yay! I won!

Thank you to everyone who voted for me and a good job for the contestants. The entries were all awesome.

Meh Went ahead and made one anyway so no-one will miss out on the Incredible Adventures of.....
