    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS :
    1. When do you upload videos? - I make videos as often as I can.
    2. What do you do for a living? - I work a full time construction job plus any overtime I can get.
    3. Where can I download the craft file? - No downloads as of yet. I don't have the time, but these videos are meant for you to be inspired to build your own crafts.
    4. WHY isn't the video in ULTRA REALISTIC SUPER HIGH DEFINITION? Because unlike your rich ass that can afford a KILLER PC, I have to use what little money I have, to make sure that there's a roof over my head and food on the table before I can spend it on things like CPUs and GPUs.
    Thank you.

    THE CHANNEL:
    This channel is about Kerbal Space Program and can consist of SSTO building tutorials and rocket building tutorials. Some times the videos contain bad language and adult humor but on a low level. In these videos no planet is safe as we can explore space together by landing on places like Duna and Jool and build large Duna colonies or orbital space stations. Also, Interplanetary SSTO builds seem to be a hot topic in the KSP community so I will be touching on those as well. I also build SSRT space craft. These are fun to build and easy to fly! Warships or space warships are one of my favorite things to make. Stock weapons can be very challenging and so when building them over time , you get to see the evolution of the designs. Same thing with the Warships. They get better and better with each new design.
    Now , I know it's considered cheating but Kraken drives are a fun way to put things like warp drive ( like in Star Trek ) and or hyper drives ( like in Star Wars ) in your Kerbal space program game. These game mechanic loopholes are fun to figure out as you find out how they work and how to incorporate them into your star ship design.
    Everything from Outposts on far away moons and Mining Stations around asteroids and comets, you name it I've ether built it or it's on my to do list! I still haven't really explored things like building SpaceX starship or any of the NASA spacecraft, and I think that's because it been done to many times. Recreations of spacecraft can be found almost everywhere on TH-cam now and so making yet another one seem redundant. Only if the spacecraft recreation is of one that I loved as a kid will I even attempt to build it. Like the Apollo Moon Lander, or the whole Apollo rocket! Now that rocket was cool!
    Many people have ask me if I'm ever going to wear my Mandalorian helmet ever again for my videos. And , yes. when the time is right, and I get a new wabcam, I will be dawning the helmet once more!
    Thank you everyone! ... This is the way.

    If you're using KER, look at the torque value included with the full delta-V stats. That's how hard your engines at full throttle are trying to rotate the craft about the CoM. You can translate and rotate the engines to reduce the torque. Anything less then 1 is usually controllable, but aim for less then 0.1. doing it this way is more precise then just eyeballing the purple thrust vector. It also allows using less reaction wheels and less control surface deflection. This gives less dry mass, more delta v, and less drag.

    An extra note about matching height of landing gear: The closer your landing gear are to the center of mass, the more weight they hold, the more their springs will compress. For my fighter designs, the main landing gear are always slightly lower than the front, because when physics are loaded, this makes them sit closer to level than they otherwise would be.
    This probably matters a lot more for aircraft than spacecraft, but for a horizontally taking off spacecraft, it definitely makes a difference too.

    Oh boy I'm starting to love TH-cam recommendations! (Only 25 minutes after the upload)
    4:55 mmmh so the parachute with the node on the top (to attach on it the tower escape system) create more drag (without that system snapped on top)!?
    Cuz I recently have done an airplane with a parachute on the nose cone and it work very well but if that parachute have more drag than a normal nose cone then I'm loosing a lot of potential of that craft (I haven't yet unlocked the small nosecones so I can't do test as for now)

  • @seyeruoynepotsuj
    @seyeruoynepotsuj ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Heyyy, so you could put nose cones behind the air-intake housing on those nacelles to remove more drag, and maybe tilt the wings up a lil for better lift, and how about dihedralling (totally a word) them a tad too for more stability in atmosphere. Anywayys, off to have breakfast.

    Thanks for this video. I made mine a bit bigger (4 section shuttle cargo bay w/8 Rapiers on each wing). It's a bit touchy on the controls but took it to orbit and landed it. Over shot the runway a bit, about 1/4 of the planet, so I'm wondering when is a good time to retro-burn? I tried 90* prior that time so was planning to try about 170* or so. Do you have a ball park area that you use for retro-burn on a space plane? Also, how can I determine if I have enough wing? I could not maintain altitude without keeping the nose up so I'm thinking I need more wing sections but am running out of places to put engines. My TtW ratio is about 1.33/1 with an empty cargo bay.

    • @PalassCat
      @PalassCat ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Interplanetary VTOLs are hell: you can't get far with rapiers only, nukes are heavy and bulky, the tradeoff between TWR and dV doesn't allow to VTOL well in high gravity. Huge rotating engine nacelles with nukes and rapiers combined tend to wobble a lot. Grapes of engines each with it's own pivot look ugly and are hard to arrange around center of mass.
