    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. I try to make it so you can follow along with the build.
    4. What is a SSRT ? - SSRT means Single Stage Rocket Technology. It was a term used before the term SSTO was a thing.

    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 RUclips 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.

    You can use struts to hold together two parts on other ends of a robotic part (like your folding wings), and then disconnect them once you reach orbit and want to fold your wings up. Just right click on them while in flight and you get an option to sever the connection and allow the joints to freely move c:

    Casual viewers can't know what an achievement this is. Building a station with radiators and solar panels properly oriented is hard. Getting one robotic thing to work takes patience. Getting two robotics things to work is not recommended. For building a functional station with many robotic parts that is also SSRT and stable enough to land again.... there is no button for this.

    This may be the single most impressive thing I've ever seen done in KSP in terms of both the scale and execution. I mean, sure, whatever, single stage to Eve or whatever. But that's not _useful_ that's just a flex. This is actually incredibly useful. Fucking impressive, man.

  • @MinerBat

    i usually like to use docking ports when using robotic parts in such a way that it docks to the port and use action groups to undock when i want to move it. i found that this greatly helps improving strength to things with robotic parts when in atmosphere or when under high acceleration. you could try that for the wings or the nose?

    • @vaos3712
      @vaos3712  2 года назад

      The strength is fine it’s the fact that they are not connected properly and therefore the game reads all the parts as if they are completely open to the elements. docking ports would sadly not work to remedy this.

      when it comes to mods that change the game mechanics then I have to respectfully decline. this is because a lot of subscribers try to build crafts that I make and if I used game changing mechanics they would not be able to get the same results. eventually I’ll be sharing these crafts online, so I need to keep it stock. I have an RSS/RO modded game and I have made videos of the SSRTs that I made in it. was thinking of doing a few videos of that in the future. 😎

    tip: shift-move in hangar to make bigga offset gaps.
