A minimalist using two fuel tanks, and more than one landing gear? Don’t make me sick

[@actually5004]

With balance you can just use 1 wing (with fuel in it), 1 intake, 1 engine (with thrust vectoring), and a seat. Of course, part welding mods exist.

[@pdes_]

@@actually5004 You can get it down to three parts using one wing (again with fuel) a command pod (with Reaction wheel) and the goliath engine. The goliath has an integrated intake.

Then there’s just “matt lowne” and it’s just his interstellar SSTO from “into the warp”

[@SRFriso94]

I went through that and looked it at that thing shot by shot to recreate it, it is complete garbage. Way too much oxidizer, and it only has enough fuel to just barely make it to LKO. If you want an SSTO of his that's capable, build Blunderbird 2, or the Dragon from his Jool 5.

[@Mac33299]

@@SRFriso94 you know... Matt's ssto doesn't use oxidizer u can just remove the oxidizer entirely if you don't know.. he don't use the closed cycle mode for the R.a.p.i.e.r. engine he use the nerve when out of the atmosphere

From the fact that I thought the "large" plane was small, I guess I know what type I am

[@fattyMcGee97]

You missed me: I make small planes that go really fast and have crazy good stall speed characteristics while maintaining good energy retention in a turn... I got carried away making jet fighters with BD armoury lol

[@mapbot4154]

Wait but how you land a kerbals on a land on the fast planes? Do ya make parachutes?

[@sha6395]

You use air brakes

[@Allthegoodhandlesaretakenlmao]

Fun fact: if you make a micro fighter using a rapier and relatively good aerodynamics you can go upwards of Mach 10. It got to the point where my biggest problem was heating. I love using it to intercept my friends’ high altitude bombers

[@Boop__Doop]

This channel reeks of potential Don't stop making high quality videos and people will start noticing

[@Pedro1745]

I'll define myself as an "overloader" because i always work with like MK1 and MK2 pieces but always full them with extra stuff "just in case" like "this is a pretty cool antenna", "here are some space batteries", "a cool backup parachute system", "I'll definitively need rcs" "this unmmaned guidance system goes here to let the crew rest" and so on. xD

[@Deson_Bowenford]

I'm one of those "I have no idea how to land so I cover the top of the plane with parachutes and use landing gear struts that stick into the ground to act as a brake when I land on a slope" type of player.

[@thehoodedteddy1335]

Confession, I have never successfully landed a plane on a runway, I always needed way more margin of error for my approach

[@Dubanx]

My first thought on seeing your minimalist plane is that it was still more complicated than you needed it to be. For example, you could swap to one of the wing types that carry fuel. They're a lot more efficient than tanks.. So, I think you can all can guess what type of KSP pilot I am, lol.

[@scarface1ghost624]

I like to think myself as a MiG pilot. Everything I make looks like it was made by a Soviet engineer in the 60's. And for some reason most payloads looks like missiles

[@davehutchinson7504]

"the small plane guy" now makes me wonder what does he count as a large plane

[@plainText384]

Ideas for next video: The optimizer 34kg of liquid fuel remaining after a 7 hour mission with 28 gravity assists? Lets revert to vehicle assembly building and do some more tweaking. The parallel operator: 12 hours to next maneuver node? Better go to mission controll and find something to launch in the mean time. The financial analyst: with this craft I can do 7 tourist missions to kerbin orbit in one launch with a 120% profit margin, this optimizes ingame cash per real time hour and represents a 6% improvement over my previous design.

[@GoldenGrenadier]

What about the sadistic guy that gets bored with the actual game and builds death contraptions for fun? I've got this one that's a huge fuel tank with external seats mounted radially. On top, there's a spinning aparatus with rocket engines pointed directly downward at the seats. Simply adjust throttle for cook time. After all the kerbals are cooked, it's got a remote guidance unit that can fly it directly into the VAB for extra fun.

@@RufflesKerman No, that's wrong! The suit comes from the DLC™ mod. You can find it in the KSP store page. Honestly, I think that mod (and another one with an old looking suit. The creator made that mod so recently, I don't understand why he/she made it be so old) is so important that the KSP devs decided to put it on the store page. I mean, the "Near Future" mods are much better and have much more contend than the two mods on the store page. But I guess the devs can do whatever that want to do...
