- After discovering a new solar system, we now set out on the most ambitious mission of the series using the largest aircraft/SSTO yet! THERE'S SO MUCH to cover in this video from the SSTO itself to the Interstellar ship it's meant to build to the SSTO/Lander that powers it, and even a helicopter inside of that!! (first heli of the series as well). There is so much in fact that this is the first of 3 parts covering this mission :D

WE ARE SO FUCKING BACK
Watch your language
No fucking swearing!
@@Anonymous_yt05 I'm pretty sure that was proper English.
Yeah.. he is back i guess..
Yeah boiii
“Guess who’s back, back again?”
“Smooney’s back, put an unsafe exposed nuclear reactor on your civilian plane because kerbals need to eat their daily dose of radiation.”
“I created an ssto”
That Halo Reach music at the end brings back memories.
SLIPSPACE RUPTURE DETECTED.
The heli rover is the single coolest thing I've ever seen
It literally is amazing
Turned out to be really useful, though a tad bit slow. Might work on a tilt rotor version in the future 🤔 as for right now though it’s up in my discord server if anyone wants the craft file! :D
Your video was awesome.
Don't pressure yourself too much about uploading frequently. You should be doing this because you're having fun. If you stop having fun, we'll likely stop having awesome videos.
Thanks!
I’ll always take the quality over quantity approach, I could definitely get out weekly videos but they take much longer sometimes because I want them to be concise and entertaining. So if something isn’t ready in time it just isn’t ready, and in the end knowing I made something I’m actually proud of is definitely the most fun part!
Smooney, you are a mad genius.
Mostly the mad part, but thank you nonetheless!
A helicopter turtorial would be awesome
this series should've been called "Getting High on Jet Fuel"
That was really a missed opportunity right there, though I guess we’re get more irradiated than anything at this point in the series! lol
Love the use of Clark and Dawe
Maybe if you were to add several layers of gears to the So-15, like how the AN-225 has 7-layers of rear gears and 2 parallel frontal gears, it'd help with the braking.
As well as adding some general airbrakes would help with mid-air deacceleration
Current version (SO-15.7) has two parallel front gear and two sets of the largest back gear, as well as a parallel set of tail gear to prevent tail strikes since that was a design flaw of the first versions. I also added a second vertical stab and rudder ( you can see it on the last launches) and they can be deployed outward to act as air brakes, though this ended up not being optimal since you loose all yaw control 👀 it could probably use another set of gear and dedicated air brakes like you said though!
Wish I could have included more of this stuff in the video! but it had to be left out due to how much we had to cover
19:21 love the ace combat reference lol
Thanks! had fun with that one lol
i love that little folding heli omg
I just put the .craft file up in my discord server if you’d like to grab it!
ALGO COMMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
welcome back smooney, hope alls been well, heard about last time, missed these!
also, if you ever need to take another time away, do not at all feel bad about doing so!!!!!!!
Thanks for the comment! It’s awesome to be back and everything is going pretty well now. Also noted! :D
Love the halo reach music at the end
Thought it would be a nice touch, thanks! :D
YOOOOO!!! I was checking to see if a new vid had dropped like an hour ago! Glad I checked back!
Impeccable timing!! Thanks for watching :D
Take your time, we will be here when you post!
That's not a massive runway, that's a realistic runway, _finally!_ :) At 2.5km, the KSC's runway is just over the bare minimum for widebody aircraft, (passenger airliners with 2 aisles,) and is well below the minimum for long-distance international widebody flights. The latter are reckoned to need 3.2km for landing and 4km for takeoff. It's no wonder there have been so many cases of single-stage to ocean. :)
Everything in this one looks so good! Especially the Godwits. I'd love to know which mod provides the Roc's cargo bay parts; it's not obvious from the mod list.
oh my FUCKING GOD, HES BACK, HES FUCKING BACK
Great video! I am glad you are back
Those wheel physics
Killed my Jeb after 12 successful landings for no reason whatsoever
The kraken called him home 😢
Thanks, it’s good to be back!
And my condolences for the loss of your Jeb, sounds like he had a good run! Maybe the way to go is catching planes out of midair, sounds easy enough…right? 😳
Very excited to see the next few episodes, love the series so far!
I think it'd be cool to have side-mounted heli blades like an Osprey in VTOL mode, counter-rotating to help keep it stable.
On the other hand, it looks like a Huey.
I was actually thinking about doing exactly this! Since I had made something similar a very long time ago ( here it is in an older short: th-cam.com/users/shortsmjAonLt04kY?si=5lbd_paWx48-sqPs ) would have been much more stable and A LOT faster, but ended going with the single rotor just because it seemed cool to do
I would love to see a helicopter tutorial!
YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH edit just made it to the end and saw ksp 2 jeb hitting the griddy
I’m sorry you had to see that but it lives in my head rent free ever since the last ksp2 aircraft only vid
@@smooneychad its ok
I definitely watch a helicopter tutorial
Nice, another episode, can't wait for to see this adventure! I really love your vids! :D
Thanks!! Glad you enjoy them :D
Nice, I'm going to recreate this in Juno New Origins
Good luck with the recreation! I really need to get around to playing some Juno!
YOY! He’s back!!!
FINALLY!
"low and fast" to avoid bouncing but bouncing is caused only by vertical speed so a higher speed probably makes it easier to bounce simply because your angle of attack creates a much larger difference in vertical speed than with a slower landing.
loved the halo reach music at the end lmao
Maybe a mission could be making a base which collects rocket parts or material kits and specialized parts if you have mks so you can construct a base which just builds rockets on the surface on minmus for example and make that fission engine ship
That’s definitely the next step, this mission is exploration only but after this we’re gonna need to make a permanent base like that in order to progress farther!
@ mks is a little hard but a cool feature with it is planetary logistics which allows you to make multiple base and trade resources with each other including space stations in the soi of the planet with transport credits
Omg this is so goddam cool!
I love all of the small parts of the ship, checking how they work and so on
(Tho for the absolutely adorable helicopter, maybe a set of contrarotating rotors witha a pusher prop would help with the speed problem?)
Fingers crossed there's consistent uploads after this
Next few should be pretty consistent if nothing IRL pops up
Best kerbal series on TH-cam.
Thank you!!!
fr
woo!!
challenge: taking off and landing a helicopter is too much work, make one that takes off and lands on a plane.
I might try this in the future! Would go well with a few other suggestions I got :o
Least modded ksp game
Also i want that helicopter
It’s up in my discord now! (link in the description) wrote out a handy user guide too!
smooneychad is a effing chad
Please do make a video on single-rotor helicopters, I've tried for ages and could never produce one that wasn't a nightmare to fly.
I can’t wait to see the rest
29:37 WHAT? 9000? There's no way it can be right!
YOURE BACK!!!!
also NOT THE ARSENAL BIRD 19:24
It feels good to be back!! And thanks for helping keep the lights on around here! :D
Let’s go airplane boy. We need another episode
Sorry for not commenting on it sooner I was on punishment for not doing my work. IM SO EXCITED FOR SO-18
I love this series
Helicopter tutorial!!!!!!!
We are so back
Excellent, Bro your editing is awesome
Thanks so much! I’m really proud of how this one turned out!
Welcome Back.
Thanks, good to be back!
yooo nice man, glad to hear you are getting a actual desktop, I have been stuck with laptops forever, I have had 2 desktops and they are both intel pentium and are just a pain. I for some reason have 6 laptops and only one of them is actually capable of running ksp at 30-40fps.
1:38 P I L L P L A N E
Hell yeah
I wonder how much time it will take to visit the whole system and when you visiting the other outer planets
I think I may build up a more permanent presence around sarnus for both of those things, pitstop for missions to the far outer planets and dwarfs planets, as well as for missions to the rest of kcalbeloh. So sometime after that outer solar missions will be much more possible! As for time span, it’ll probably be similar amount of time for the arlac system (if I’m spelling that correctly) and then the rest of kcalbeloh, though all the new tech may speed things up significantly. As for the outer solar system, we’ll have to visit them eventually, just no idea when yet.
@@smooneychad I dare you to do a stellar gravity assist to kcalbeloh (gravity assist off of kerbol)
I’m glad KSP content is alive and well. Have you ever tried the “after kerbin” mod? I wanted to try it but it says that the mod version is outdated so I’m not sure my current KSP version will actually run it but I don’t know for sure.
Yes! Actually the original concept for this series was going to be called “Inside” and was a IVA only play through in the After Kerbin pack surrounded by a few procedural star systems made with Infinite Discoveries. I remember that it worked pretty well despite being outdated but the blackrack clouds were are the wrong height ( I also had to tweak the sun flares from red giant kerbol) other than that everything worked great just decided to do a more familiar play through. I may revisit that though!
@@smooneychad I will have to try the mod! I absolutely LOVE the visuals and all of the different interesting planets in Beardy’s series with the mods so I think I’m going to try and put in the effort to make all those mods work together. Wish me luck, and I’d totally watch an after kerbin series if you happen to do one!
LETS GO WE ARE SO BACKK WHOOO HOOO
I have returned from the Russian hangar to go watch this channel.
Your station looks like the Helmholtz Resonator Headphones someone made
I saw that on Reddit awhile back and never made the connection but you’re exactly right loll
thx :3
np! :D
OMG HE'S REAL?
i did NOT see this title coming
Would love a heli tutorial.
F*CK YEAH BABY ! REWATCHING THE WHOLE THING AGAING RELIGIOUSLY 😂❤❤❤
Ayy thanks for watching, getting started on the next part as we speak so get ready to rewatch yet again! loll
@@smooneychad and I'll do it every time 😅
I NEED THE HELICOPTER TUTORIAL
The people have spoken I’ll start working on it very soon!
Watching the video… I have worries that spinning the spacecraft will be prone to the dzjanibekov effect
Dumb design decision of mine to make the thing identical to models used to showcase this very effect! The struggles with this begin in the next episode. Though it’s probably an unrealistic solution given the use of reaction wheels, getting it to hold prograde while spinning was able to ward the effect off.
What would have really solved it was the original idea I had of spinning the arms separately of the ship on a beefy rotor or servo! Though I’m sure the kraken would have loved that…
Just saying Somerset is a county rather than a city, it’s like saying Texas is a city. Somerset is the county, bath and wells are the cities
My bad, I was going off of a somewhat local city/town to me here in the US (one of several named Somerset here) I probably should have clarified that!
I stopped being surprised by these things when I learned there's an Athens in Georgia... never mind a Georgia in the USA! :) For a real weird one, there's a London in the Crimea (N coast of the Black Sea) and historical records of the English supplying troops to the Varangian Guards in Byzantium (S coast of the Black Sea). There's a theory that these are something to do with English lords who left England rather than submit to the Norman conquest.
i would love a helicopter tutorial as i just cant figure them out myself
Okey doke, I am on it! (after we finish up this mission most likely)
19:25 It would be awesome if you built an arsenal bird in KSP, just saying
I may actually make one now, might take awhile 👀
i clicked on this not realising it was you and IM SO FUCKING GLAD I DID
(im subbing so this doesnt happen again)
I would love if you did a helicopter tutorial. That would help so much
19:23 the Arsenal bird!
(Ps the Arsenal bird does not have landing gear.)
True, now that I think about it how to was it launched
Come to think of it the way they were launched would be sick to recreate in KSP somehow though extremely difficult
@@smooneychad agreed to building the mass driver in ksp would be awesome
POGGERS
This happened to my buddy Eric once
I hope Eric is well (and seeking treatment for radiation)
@@smooneychad he is not well he looked like if a necromorph ate a baseball sized chunk of corium
I don't know how you've done all of this in Career mode. I can't even reach orbit with a rocket.
:3
if you're building a pc for ksp, then you'll need a beefy cpu. current best gaming cpu in the market (by a fairly wide margin) is the amd 7800x3d, however i suggest you hold off a tiny bit longer since its successor - the 9800x3d - should be coming out within a matter of days, and current benchmarks seem to show that it's even better than the 7800x3d and is poised to snatch the throne. I'd wait for it to come out then get it for a decent price (so waiting for demand to cool down a bit if it gets marked up due to supplies running out).
Arsenal Bird Jumpscare detected!
Finally
Smooney chad how well does ksp with all these mods run and what are your specs? I rly want to get into this game and this information will help me know if i can. Btw love the content
holy hell why are there so many dislikes? 250 likes and 170 dislikes, must be some bots or something
Could be YT or something glitching out as it says 1 dislike on my end, gave me a slight heart attack there for a bit though! Lol
SMOTHY THE BEST I PLAY KSP1
you da best
Did I finally get to a vid early?
RAHHHHH
No Arsenal bird? Its a shame, cause you just got the control for your props down with that Cal controller.
Should I? I mean actually making 1:1 arsenal bird would be the peak of aircraft only, but what am I gonna do with it? 🤔
@@smooneychad I absolutely want to see you recreate it. But I don't think it will do anything for you other than take up a load of money and time, haha. I can't imagine what you'd use it for either.
@@smooneychad use it to bomb the ksc, of course
How about the FAT-455 airplane wings?
Most of the planes so far are required to endure lots of heat, and most of the airplane parts suck for this. Definitely make use of them in the future though for large cargo planes and the such
10:52 spelling error (sorry)
There is? Its a stock effect I used (and just put Kerbals over lol)
Edit: wait I see it “we’ll back soon” LOL my brain was filling the “be” in. Never trust stock footage I guess! 😂
What mod are these cargo bays from?
Near future launch vehicles I believe
the next videos are now just "I trapped these green people in a plane against their free-will and sent them to another solar system"
Basically, they do have a good bit of room and artificial gravity now, also less radiation than last time… maybe 🤔
A HUNDRED AND FIVE HOURS, wwhat in the world
I became one with this mission… o-o ☕️
pls pls pls pls pls pls make a helicopter tortorial pls
What mod you use to paint the vessels?
Lazypainter and T.U.R.D (textures unlimited recolour depot)(Also, if u have making history or breaking ground, there's a configuration for those parts in the T.U.R D forum page hidden below the stock recolour
Can we get much higher? Or in this case, farther?
There’s always more places to go and things to do even after this!
Yeah helicopters aren’t easy. I tried making one and it almost worked but it kept completely losing control once I got into the air
Perhaps a helicopter tutorial will help! I remember making one when I first got breaking ground that, I could have swore, the body spun more than the rotors lol
LETS $&#@&$# GOOO
Arsenal bird ssto when?
Can't be sure- but from your accent it sounds like you might be from my very rough area, so i hope that unexpected vacation wasn't due to Helene, and if it was i hope you're well. Lots of people losing homes near me :/
Yes,i could build this....IF MY PC COULD HANDLE KSP PROPERLY T^T
FYI my pc lags when I'm kn prbit and look at Kerbin
The only mod ive used is Kerbalism and like 2 or 3 quality of life ones
WHEN I TRIED TO INSTALL A PLANETS EXPANSION MOD (idk which one was it) MY PC JUST SAID: *NO*
it wouldnt load T^T
I am getting a better pc bc i have the MONEY for it
I WILL
JUST TO DO EPIC SHIT LIKE THIS....and play VR chat :3.....when i eventually get that headset
Good luck with the PC upgrade I’m gonna be upgrading soon as well hopefully!
@smooneychad thx :3
There is a teeny tiny but ever so slightly important piece of information about me and computer building:
I DONT KNOW ANYTHING QWQ
I got a few friends who know what they're doing and got PC builds so in the future I'll ask them how it works,what I should get etc etc
I don't know what a GRAPHICS CARD DOES 😭(*I think* it's like a...separate GPU just for rendering stuff
And the CPU is for calculating, processing, etc etc
Idfk)
when next episode?
I can not make helicopters for the life of me
Tutorial sometime after I finish the mission up!
@@smooneychad I’ll be ready when it appears
Hey smooney take the planet names in the system and reverse there name there roman gods but in reverse
Given some of the disagreements on pronunciation I’ve seen, I may just call them all like this lol
@@smooneychad okay but seriously its a really cool easter egg
yo can you releace the mod pack for this plzzz
It's in the description
Dude get so high on jet fuel
