Stock crafts need testing!

[LABHOUSE]

Ok these stock crafts need thorough testing. I have no pictures though and only have the demo version but these are not made for the demo.

Test only the shuttle, progress, falcon nine

Test it all

Ok you do not need to test each ship just the one you chose.

Pretty hard to follow the instructions, but I still give the shuttle a go (only using the parts listed):

-Coming soon-

Many of the parts you listed aren't the size you think they are, and some don't attach the you think they would.

I really recommend you to buy the full version it's worth it! You can wait for a sale if the current price is too high.

BTW, the KR-2L is a 3.75m (huge) engine, and wouldn't work for the Falcon Heavy.

Well still ok for just having the demo that is why I made this thread to fix my mistakes.

[Giggleplex777]

What I got:

Problems:

- The attachment node of the mk3 cockpit is not centered

- The batteries rotate and attach at their center, and are small

- The advanced canard is small

- The control surfaces are big

- The tri-coupler does not radially attach to anything and does not have surfaces to attach things to it. Even if it could attach to things, it would only attach at the middle.

- Stock Space Shuttles are very hard to build.

If you want a stock space shuttle you should check out my shuttle, the Odysseus (http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/63127-Odysseus-STS-Block-III-Stock-Space-Shuttle!?p=862576#post862576) or these excellent shuttles by other users:

Actually, try all of them, because they're all awesome!

Dude, if you have only the demo, don't design random ships like that and post them in the wiki. People go there to learn, not to... nevermind.

Kudos for trying, Giggleplex.

Ok the docking port should be on the outside and I believe I forgot to put about using another panel to put the tri coupler. And Did I forget to put about using 17 2x2 panels to make a box with the hitchhiker storage container as one end? I learned a lot from this instead of the hitchhiker container use two Lander cans the ones that have 2 kerbals room and a normal 1 kerbal Lander can. I might get it soon though but my friend told me about this 2 days after my birthday...

And also put enough 1x1 panels behind the advanced canard to make up for its size and use another one to make it a slanted wing that is bigger

But then it won't fly.

Ok then the delta wing. I really need the full version
