parked 8 km from the polar landing site, now in the midlands
<
flayer>
a crater biome looks to be about 30 km away, that should be easily doable
<
flayer>
i've not even used any fuel yet, got 12 days of snacks
<
raptop>
hop or rover?
<
flayer>
i've got 4 wheels and 6 thrusters
<
raptop>
I'll take that as a "yes"
<
flayer>
i can even parachute down from a hop
<
flayer>
it's a very wide-base
<
flayer>
makes it very comfortable to ride around in
<
flayer>
i got two thrusters on hinges for forward and backward acceleration, if i want it
<
flayer>
and 4 thrusters for hopping

darsie, i landed on the edge of the polar biome on duna, right between a midland crater and a polar crater
<
flayer>
gonna drive/hop around in a rover/hopper to catch all the science
<
flayer>
i dont know what that is
<
taniwha>
take on pokemon, gotta catch them all
<
darsie>
When I complete teh tech tree on Minmus, I send one scientist ahead to find the exact location of a three biome border.
<
darsie>
Hmm, electric airplane on Duna?
<
flayer>
i'm playing without orbital body multipliers and 30% science
<
flayer>
so i've done most of kerbin, mun and minmus and only unlocked about half the tech tree
<
flayer>
and that's the easy half
<
flayer>
i'm hoping with the return of this duna trip i can unlock my first 550 node

ok, 55m/sec is too fast to handle

kikkerikii

55 m/s too fast for what? landing?
<
flayer>
driving around
<
flayer>
i crashed on a hill
<
Althego>
ah absolutely
<
Althego>
never go above 25
<
Althego>
that is 90 km/h on a rough terrain, rover can flip or be damaged instantly, just because of a slight bump

Why are the mount points of motors vertical and those of prop blades horizontal??
<
darsie>
More lightweight and large blades would be better for Duna.
<
darsie>
Hmm, should I use a helicopter blade?
<
Althego>
i really wanted to build an electric plane for duna
<
Althego>
but it was really hard to generate enough thrust and lift
<
darsie>
Before I got the expansion packs, I flew with a RW with wings.
<
darsie>
Heh, I could use wings as propeller blades :)

Did he stop?
<
FLHerne>
I've seen KSP videos from him fairly recently
<
Kerbonaut>
he stopped for a month or so
<
Kerbonaut>
he's been doing space this week
<
FLHerne>
Half the youtube channels I follow post videos less than once a month anyway, so I didn't really notice :p
<
FLHerne>
Watched his video, makes sense
<
FLHerne>
tbh I agree with him that "oh yes it's another cool-looking SSTO" was becoming a worn-out formula
<
FLHerne>
especially now there are no new releases, so no new parts or physics changes
<
FLHerne>
I imagine KSP 2 will inspire a huge wave of videos whenever it arrives!
<
Kerbonaut>
yall wanna play gartic phone

It's almost midnight here

I'm going to sleep instead, I'm afraid :p
