The X-15 didn't use air breathing engines, it used a closed cycle. You're looking for the SR 71 Blackbird... although that only reached Mach 3.5. Still very fast, however. You may as well just be building a rocket if you're going for closed cycle.

The X15 didn't even take off. It was sent to 400,000 feet by other aircrafts. And it would simply glide down to earth. It was a research plane with absolutely no travel or flight path.

You should try this again using only the bottom part of the scaffolding to make the separation easier. Then make the fuselage so that all the tanks have oxidizer in them, then line the bottom of the aircraft with heat shields, turn off ignore max temp, and start off just inside the atmosphere to see how fast it will go without cheats. Then turn on cheats just to see how fast it can really go, including infinite fuel. And the entire time staying in line with the runway and attempt a landing
I found a thing with the wings The auroplane tail wings (or whatever they are called) seem to boost your planes speed when the control surface side is rotated to be against or slightly pointing outwards of your plane's body. BUT, this may only work when you use space plane tail wings for the main wings
It's called stalling. It happens when an aircraft gets so high, the atmosphere is thin enough it doesn't catch enough air to keep flying. I recommend fly lower, of fly faster.
+JeRic There has been many things in this video I been accused of doing wrong and I haven't denied any of them. All I can say is if you don't like the way I want to experience KSP then don't watch, considering almost all my KSP videos have included mods to some degree you won't enjoy them. I just find the game more enjoyable with more parts which are only obtainable by mods the "OP" factor is out of my control.

+JeRic The title is there to merely sum up the point of the video in a few words, having "Challenge" in the title is still valid as challenge means "A task that tests someones abilities" Which for me as someone still learning this game is still true regardless of the mods.

It's to sum up everything generally not to individually cater to someone specifically. I don't mean any of this as a Put Down at all that's not my intention. I understand that you as someone who may understand this game wouldn't find this a challenge especially with mods but for me that's a different story :P
+HalfEYEProduction It's not the same thing because people actually look for "challenge" videos that have constraints. That's why the Challenge titles are misleading.
I remember I once calculated the speed to reach orbital velocity on kerbin, aka negate gravity in the atmosphere, but after several attempts I realized even if I could ever reach that speed, my aircraft would disintegrate. But it’s an interesting challenge if anyone wants to try, tho I do believe it was around 19k mph
I held a cruise speed of 1400-1450 ms around kerbin in my black bird replica and it just managed to circle the entire planet. I ran out of fuel when entering the land mass west of the mountain range that is located west of the space center, and it looked amazing doing it.
3:46 The stratosphere is a sky grouped at approx. 1 km altitude. Here, most planes fly and rarely hot air balloons. Also, most mid-level clouds are here. It contains primarily of oxygen, secondarily of water vapor and carbon dioxide and monoxide, and tripiarily of ozone.
It's not thrust to weight ratio that you need. It's thrust to drag ratio that you need when doing aircraft. Use the oxygen in the air with an air intake instead.
+YourAverageGamer Canada Nope and I'll never consider myself the brains of this game as I've chosen not to. I've said it many times, I don't claim to know what I'm doing. If I knew what I was doing I would instantly shutdown some of the ideas for challenges I've got simply because I would already have an understanding as to whether or not it was going to work to some degree, making the game stale and repetitive for me in the process.
The more engines you have the more weight you have wich means you need more thrust to push the weight wich is why you need as little weight and high thrust as possible. More engines = more weight wich you have to push Btw that is actual science or rocket science
Apparently everyone here is an astrophysicist. Yes, he is being reckless and doesn’t have the best understanding of physics but he is just trying to have fun. Stop acting like you are an expert in aerospace engineering.
I just made a plane that takes 15sec to go 1500MS then it blows up from heat. I also spent only 10-20min building the thing, it’s also pretty maneuverable, until you pull up it shreds itself. So I wanted to make a SSO with that design and get some ideas from videos. And wow 😮 your plane is INSANE.
+Octillerysnacker I guess so but I find them less awesome looking when it comes to Control Pods etc. So I mainly install them for that but they add other stuff too and because they've been installed for so long I kinda forget what parts are from mods :/
I did one fully stock with intakes and turbines and achieved 1700m/s, and It was able to loop the globe if you keep it around 24000m, it burns very little fuel to keep altitude and speed which is about 1500m/s.
At 2000 meters/second (1/8th) the velocity required to maintain orbit for earth the scattered air molecules at 50km, which the x-15 flew at, produced enough lift to start lifting the “plane” upward
The speed for the X-15 was achieved by dropping it at 108 km roughly. There's hardly any air resistance at that elevation which is why it managed the speed it did.
It was wasn’t 108km space is considered to start at 100 km the b52 that launched wouldn’t work that high as there is barely any air that altitude was the altitude it reached after being launched
@@michelletowner4212 yes.. I realize this.. The X-15 was released from the modified bomb bay on the B-52 at the bomber's max altitude, then proceeded to climb and accelerate. It's top speed ever recorded was at 108km (roughly) and at a speed of Mach 6.7 (4,520 mph)... I do see the reason for the confusion, I typed that 2 years ago so my bad on the lack of extra words to clarify
The reason the X-15 used those winglets was because it was kinda towed up into the air and dropped. There it would activate and kinda just blast off. It didn't need big wings to take off, they just needed control and stability.
I just made a plane that goes 2100m/s at 27,000m. This plane also three extra long cargo bay lengths plus mk3 cockpit and cargo ramp at the end. It contains everything needed for a mobile sustainable science research base, using uks life support. It has a boom on the nose of the mk3 cockpit, that projects a heat shield away from the mk3 cockpit and prevents explosions. I'm thinking of downloading some realistic aerodynamic mod for more challenges
With the X-15 they attached the Spaceplane to a B-52 bomber since it couldn’t take off on its own. Once high enough, they would decouple the X-15 and start up the engine, darting through the thin atmosphere, going into space.
The X-15 doesn't count as a plane. It counts as an aircraft. The fastest plane in the world is the SR-71 Blackbird. Produced by Lockheed Martian Skunkworks division.
Yeah I watched that episode also sadly mythbusters ended 😭 but theres a new show on Netflix called the white rabbit project with grant and the other two Tory and I forgot her name
I made a plane that travelled almost as fast as that. It was more stable, lighter, it did not need to go suborbital, it had capacity for crew, it was made only with stock parts (it didn’t use mods.). and it didn’t require all those parts. The only diference is that it was bigger and a Little fragile. The one you built was more resistent and smaller.
When you were at the runway, it didn't take off because the wheels were behind the flaps. You could've fixed that issue if you added wings to the nose of the aircraft.
I love how he completely disregards vertical stabilizers, but wonders why the craft flips around.. This is just hilarious!

With the X-15 they attached the Spaceplane to a B-52 bomber since it couldn’t take off on its own. Once high enough, they would decouple the X-15 and start up the engine, darting through the thin atmosphere, going into space.
The X15 a couple times actually did exit the earth’s atmosphere
I suspect in unmodded KSP, the way to do this is 'build an SSTO'. The X-15 almost travels at a Kerbal orbital velocity anyways...
The X-15 doesn't count as a plane. It counts as an aircraft. The fastest plane in the world is the SR-71 Blackbird. Produced by Lockheed Martian Skunkworks division.
An aircraft is a vehicle which is capable of flight. You clearly have limited knowledge
Thomas Libenow actually the fastest plane in the world was the XB-70 Valkyrie
@@Muffinkakes1It got super close, but it never exceeded its top recorded speed.
Thomas Libenow it was never tested at %100 engine power other than takeoff
@@Muffinkakes1 At this point thats just a hypothesis, when the SR 71 holds the record for the fastest pane.
This mans using rocket engines for something he could easily accomplish with a couple of whiplash engines... I love to see that 😂
4:41 captions-im going to be super anal about this. XD I DIED WHEN I SAW THAT
he did the wrong plane yet did a pretty awesome job at the plane. the new speed holder is the x-43a almost at 7000 mph nearing mach 10
nasa did build a rocket that went to the moon and people have been to the moon, mythbusters even proved that man has been on the moon
Ethan Coy chill he was joking
Yeah I watched that episode also sadly mythbusters ended 😭 but theres a new show on Netflix called the white rabbit project with grant and the other two Tory and I forgot her name
How about using horizontal stabilizators!??!?!?
If I met this guy I would kidnap him and leave him tied up in a physics lecture.
You're the first ksp youtuber i watched that swears.
I made a plane that travelled almost as fast as that. It was more stable, lighter, it did not need to go suborbital, it had capacity for crew, it was made only with stock parts (it didn’t use mods.). and it didn’t require all those parts. The only diference is that it was bigger and a Little fragile. The one you built was more resistent and smaller.
A youtuber named jacksepticeye, once reached 1000ms accidentally for just a split second
Rookie numbers
When you were at the runway, it didn't take off because the wheels were behind the flaps. You could've fixed that issue if you added wings to the nose of the aircraft.
