[1.0.5][WIP]FantomWorks 0.3.3 KAX+ Part Pack

[FreddyPhantom]

This is a great parts pack! Are you planning to add engines, or are you sticking to the cockpits?

I had planned to make some engines, but with the new KSP update my parts wouldn't be necessary. But if you have some specific ideas for engines I could make them

Oh hey, how about the windscreen wiper shroud. It wouldn't be much of a change to the model you have.

yeah, I'll try it and post a picture of it

Damn, that SR-71 cockpit is looking fantastic.

Also, could you please name it the Archangel?

Archangel was the name of the CIA project that led to the development of the SR-71, FYI.

Got bored, so I made a cargo-carrying KIS-capable K-2C Hawkeye, the K-2A Hawkrey!

More turbo props.

Proper hatches for the cockpits (my pilots need to get out and stretch every few years...

VTOL rotors for the Osprey cockpit.

roller style landing gear for the C-130J/MV-22 cockpits, and fuselages to fit?

[MrFancyPL]

@FreddyPhantom Can you upload making-of procces film on youtube ?

Kelly Johnson would be proud.

Now, if only there were away to make KINGFISH, Convair's prototype for the Archangel requirements.

I am always looking out for more piston engines and turboprops tuned for different functions. For example, the KAX radial engine could be like a P&W Double Wasp - big, heavy, and fuel-guzzling. Therefore, there's room for a stock/KAX-styled Rolls-Royce Merlin analog - smaller and less powerful, but also more fuel-efficient and a fitting engine for a smaller and lighter aircraft.

Similarly, the KAX turboprop is most like the Allison T56, which powers the C-130, P-3 Orion, and E-2 Hawkeye. What would be very cool to have is something inspired by the Russian NK-12 - the larger and much more powerful engine with two contra-rotating propellers that powered the Soviet Tu-95 Bear.

Have you ever tried putting those little eyebrow windows on the K-737?

here are some updated pictures:

Interesting, your SR-71 cockpit looks very similar to a model that I have WIP. Same name too, at least the KR-71 part.

Aside from being an SR-71 lookalike, I'd say they're not even close.

Well, in any case, it looks good so I hope people enjoy it when it comes out I'll just have to change the name of mine xD

Either that or tweak it into a YF-12 cockpit

Most 737s no longer have glass in those windows (they've been replaced with plugs), and factory-fresh birds don't even have the windows at all.

While on the subject of cockpits, may I suggest one?

[FreddyPhantom]

Proper hatches for the cockpits (my pilots need to get out and stretch every few years...

VTOL rotors for the Osprey cockpit.

roller style landing gear for the C-130J/MV-22 cockpits, and fuselages to fit?

I'll add hatches, after I fixed all the parts for 1.0.2

I'm very bad in importing animated parts like rotors and turbo props to KSP. So I can make the models but some help with the other stuff would be aaaawesome

I have started moddeling a Merlin engine, but as I said I'm very bad in importing prop engines and wheels to KSP.

There was a NK-12 engine once for KSP, maybe you can find it...

@FreddyPhantom Can you upload making-of procces film on youtube ?

A process film of the KR-71?

Kelly Johnson would be proud.

Thanks man!! Do you have a picture of the actual Kingfish. On google there arer so many different ones

There is a lot of work to do until I can start with another new part. But I write it on my list

A question from me: I thought about starting a second thread for the KR-71 and other parts in this style. Do you think should do that?

[DeepSlayLP]

Yes I think that would be a good idea for like the "military" planes and use this one for the common used ones (And yes, the Osprey is a military vehicle that can and is used by public)

[MrFancyPL]

@FreddyPhantom Of any part, I only want to see how you modeling

[Nothalogh]

Of KINGFISH, I have only ever seen one design, but FISH, and the Super Hustler which preceded it are often confused

[MangoScout]

I've been waiting for this cockpit for a long time now. Finally, I get to make the Poseidon.

How did you get the IVA from?

looks so cool

@FreddyPhantom

Do you know when you can update to 1.0.x?

Now I hope I fixed everything

[DeepSlayLP]

Okay cool:D

[Nothalogh]

I have another cockpit to recommend, the Convair B-58 for the 1.875m form factor.

It would give us a proper supersonic cockpit for that size.

[Mekan1k]

I love the cockpits, but they REALLY need IVA's.

I used the KSO super 25 IVA.

[callumrooney98]

suggestion, would be brilliant just needs scaling down
