A lot of people want this out there as a way to promote community crafts, and I think it is a pretty good idea. As I'm pretty lazy, I decided to make this submission thread so that not only is it easier for me to browse submissions, but it will allow older crafts to be submitted (not on the front page anymore). There will be several basic categories each craft will be reviewed in. Also a word of advice, I tend to get sidetracked, so don't expect me to make totally professional reviews (Or get them done quickly) ._.

First video of the Series!

See the rest of the series on my Youtube Channel!

__________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ ______________________________

Check out the latest episode!

__________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ ______________________________

Selection Rules:

1. Your craft must be stock. I will not make any reviews on modded craft. (Stock allows everyone to use your craft)

2. Your craft must be interesting. Make me amazed! Implement some new, crazy, or unique building techniques into your crafts to make them truly stand out.

3. Special features / Detailed Replicas increase your chances of being selected. (I want to see something that looks good and performs well. Stock rotors? Yes! Stock fairings? Cool! Stock turrets? Even more yes! Something that will make people gape in awe when they look it at. *Cough* Like maybe a Ratte with a working turret. *Cough* )

4. Craft will be chosen from the Spacecraft Exchange or this thread, whichever place you choose to publish your craft.

5. I will contact you via PM if I wish to use one of your crafts in a video. If you want any specific review style/focus points mention them there.

__________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ _____________________________

FACTS REGARDING VIDEOS:

My internet connection is quite poor, so it usually takes me a couple of hours to upload a video onto Youtube.

My videos will always be rendered in 1080p, 60fps. (Bonus points if you don't make me lag too badly)

It would be helpful to suggest they way you would want me to review the craft, as I only have so many good ideas before I start 'Splodin things.

I want to make this series a weekly thing, but due to extreme procrastination, it will probably be a biweekly series.

I am not the most professional reviewer out there, (think Danny2462 professional) so if you don't provide me with strict guidelines, I can't do a serious review other than maybe top-speed, maneuverability, and a full launch sequence.

I'll submit my absurd aerobatic VTOL the Nomad A1, this thing is a hoot and deserves better video treatment than I can give it. Oh and it makes for beautiful crashes :cool:

OdvEWmI.png

Craft file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/li6j4vkz8kzn4a7/Nomad%20A1.craft?dl=0

Action Groups:

1. Vertical jet engines

2. Horizontal jet engines

3. Vertical engine bay doors

9. Vertical braking thrusters

Abort: Parachutes (can also use spacebar)

Stock parts, built for FAR but should work in stock.

How to fly it: Turn on SAS and RCS, hit action groups 1 and 2, go full throttle and fly it like you stole it!

It wasn't made this week, but I feel like since this is the premiere episode we can fudge it a little, and my Jool-5 mothership "Julia" deserves more attention:

Full album available at Jool5 2 - Imgur

As long as we're on this topic, it would obviously be ideal for every featuree to have either a video or a download (so the host can film it), but what's the plan for things like this that have plenty of pictures but no video?

This remembers me the ship in sunshin the movie in which they try to detonate a nuclear nuke into the sun to keep it from death, they have a radiation shield in the shape of a curved disc like yours for max light deflection on the nose of the ship..

Looks cool

I thought that it was going to be the whole spacecraft exchange. Not just a submission thread.

A lot of good crafts will be missed doing it this way.

I will be doing the whole spacecraft exchange, however a lot of older crafts would be excluded. (I can only look at the first few pages)

That is kind of the point, right? Show what was hot that week? I mean, whatever catches your eye and is close to the top. My last things were the base pack and the station, BTW, if you want to take a look. ;)

Rune. I leave the rest to an assumed good judgement: the better you have it, the more it will succeed. No pressure! :P

Craft file link?

Sorry, but the craft file doesn't actually exist ^^; I was able to take that picture only by cobbling together a dummy craft in the VAB, because the real ship was assembled in orbit. I may post the complete "build your own" set once I finish the mission.

(Since Speeding Mullet is showcasing his compant thread, I might as well do the same.)

The link in my sig has one whole c*rpton of craft

Among these craft my favourites are my Soyuz, it has a relatively accurate shape and my Vostok, with the ejection seat.

EDIT: Once I finish this monstrioty of an SSTO, I'd like for it to be showcased. Somehow.
