Thanks, I've got the smallest control surface from Taverio-s-Pizza-and-Aerospace, structural parts from MSI-s-Infernal-Robotics-Model-Rework and the decoupler from Procedural-Parts. The twist does actually make them a bit more stable.

would it achieve the same thing if you angled the airfoils and used just one axis-mounted rocket motor?

That could be a better idea and would probably only need two fins, there's a slight positive effect from pulling the mass/drag behind the thrust though I think.

We could have a whole discussion about weapon system designs that work with mods and without.

Hey, JebThePilot. Since you saved this thread from oblivion can you put my bi-pane run on the scoreboard, I never get in first place in these challenges. I got a new one that fires controllable miniature aircraft, I'm going to try and get all the points with it.

Don't have a video, but I hit every target with bonus and landed in 3min 37 seconds. Pretty easy to hit the buildings spot on with glide bombs, while your bomber plane descends slowly on parachutes. Should be 290 points.

3min 37sec: -6

VAB 50+5

Tracking Station: 40+6

SPH: 60+10

R&D:40+15

Mission Control:75

Also, Darren9's score with biplane is wrong, should be SPH 60+10, Tracking Station 40+6, R&D 40, Mission Control 75, VAB 50, time -2. Which is 279.
