Kerbal Space Program - 51 ton Eve SSTO
Single stage from Kerbin's surface, to Eve's surface, and back to Kerbin. Mass on the runway is 51.7 tons.
As far as I know, this is the lightest such craft that doesn't use magic wings. Previous record was 57.4 tons by nonRO-tesseract. A bit of lateral thinking here - this can go down to sea level, refuel, and then climb a mountain before refueling again. So technically this can be a sea level Eve SSTO as well.
With the xenon drained this plane becomes pretty hard to control so I just did a water landing. I am impressed at the capabilities of the KSC recovery crew.
Not all gravity assists and ion maneuvers are shown in this video because there were a lot of them and it would be boring.

KSP - Probe to orbit in 462 kg
Переглядів 4,6 тис.Місяць тому
I flew this mission a while ago and never got around to making a video. Recently I remembered this, improved the design a bit, and put this together. This craft made it to orbit on my first try with a good amount of margin, so there's absolutely room for improvement. Iterating on this design can probably go as low as 425 kg with a good ascent profile. The engine ignition with the propeller stil...

Nova Drift - Star Eater in 11:55.68
Переглядів 4552 місяці тому
First day of Nova Drift 1.0 beta. Probably not an optimal strategy by any means but it's really consistently able to defeat the final boss, so maybe there's a better chance to reset for good waves. My pace going into wave 200 felt pretty good, as did the boss fight. I don't expect this record to stand for super long.
Kerbal Space Program - The Magic Ladder (to Eve and back)
Переглядів 17 тис.6 місяців тому
A kerbal on a ladder has its mass and drag ignored by the parent craft, which is obviously very powerful for mass optimization. This craft can do an Eve return in under 4 tons. Mass without kerbal and without cargo is 3996 kg; mass with cargo but without pilot is 4061 kg. This is very similar to, but distinct from, the ladder kraken drive. The only force exerted on the lander is from propellers...

Kerbal Space Program - Jool V with a 5.2 ton spaceplane
Переглядів 1,1 тис.Рік тому
A 5.2 ton technically-a-spaceplane lands our Kerbal on all five of Jool's moons and returns safely to Kerbin. The craft's mass on the runway is 5208 kg without pilot, so the total mass including the kerbal is 5253 kg. This is a pretty big improvement over the 5.8 ton previous record. Most of it is in the Laythe and Tylo landers, which were both significantly redesigned. I had an entire tank of ...
Nova Drift - (FWR) 9:09 Annihilation Phylogeny Speedrun

Different build this time! This build used to be meta for a different category and a different version, in which I held the world record of 7:15. In that old version, siege had a really powerful interaction with charged shot that let you fire way more quickly than you should. Siege got nerfed since then but the build is still very strong. Sub 8 might be possible but would require great luck wit...

Better run than last time. Same RR hullbreaker strategy because it's durable and all the boss fights after wave 20 are super easy. It's really slow in the early game however, if I get a lucky first few waves I could potentially get sub 10.

Do not pay attention to the Kerbin Environmental Protection Agency report. All nuclear materials in this mission were disposed of in a safe manner. I land a kerbal on Tylo and return him safely to Kerbin using only the nuclear engine for propulsion. The low atmosphere ascent is the most difficult part, but the rest was surprisingly painless. My launch vehicle can put a nuclear engine and about ...
Kerbal Space Program - 5 tons to Eve and Moho
Переглядів 1,1 тис.Рік тому
I realized that the Eve lander in my previous video was lighter than the Tylo lander in my 4.6 tons Tylo mission, so naturally I wondered if I could do an Eve return in under 5 tons. The Eve lander was physically larger and thus required more fairing mass, but it wasn't that much more. I then packed on xenon until I was just under 5 tons, and found that it was enough to do a Moho landing and re...

This is the lightest ever Eve ascent vehicle. Without magic wings, EVA construction, or other aero exploits, it's smaller than any others that do use these. My low mass Eve mission and the later grand tour feature a 2105 kg Eve lander. At the time, this was the lightest Eve ascent vehicle, barring Stratzenblitz's 1427 kg magic wing craft. However, I recently saw a forum post from Ultimate Steve...

Instant sub so we can let someone make a 400 kg record...
Joli. Est ce que tu peux préciser tes moteurs ?
all you need to go to eve is a kal controller,fuel tank and 2 smallest engines but this bullshit is pretty damn close
Very underrated!
And im here doing big ass rocket just for LKO with always thousand of delta V left because i think it look cool
Did you try to get horizontal momentum with it before staging? Maybe ion engine next?
The 250 kg ion engine is almost the mass of my entire upper stage (300 kg), and since it doesn't have gimbal I'll need a 50 kg reaction wheel. So it's already just as heavy, before adding the probe core, power generation, batteries, fuel, etc. The propeller is optimized for static thrust so it will barely give me any horizontal velocity.
Heavens above, this is insane
This song was in my playlist that I used to listen to on loop while playing. It's a banger. Super neat and compact design too
epic
What was the main engine used here?? Based on the plume, a Vector maybe? Or an aerospike?
at first I thought "oh cool, an ssto from eve to eve orbit" and then they took off from fucking kerbin
youre fucking insane
surely you could get rid of the vertical stabilizer? at least replace it with something lighter?
probably
But then it would look less cool
this is tiny
Why did you use those wings I was always under the impressing the ones with liquid fuel inside are better?
I don't use a rapier or nuclear engine so there's no point in the additional fuel tank.
actually the goat
cool shape
How did you survive the heating in Eve's atmosphere?
if you look at the thermal gauges, I almost didn't!
simply beautiful
Nice! Way better than my bulky ssta
Wow it's crazy seeing you build something over 10 tons nonetheless 50! In any case, nice!
Hard to make an eve ssto for 10 tons
Very impressive!!
I thought that less than 1ton was impossible
someone call bradley
The chuck Norris of Space 🤣🤣🤣🤣
immensely impressive stuff!
Unbelievable sfuff But wait KSP1? Almost everyone has switched to KSP2 But great one in less than 30 minutes
If you look at player counts, barely anyone switched to KSP 2, and now that the game is confirmed dead most will probably switch back.
Oh yeah Even Spacechip come to KSP1 I completely forgot about that
Yowza
Wat
Bro made a space scooter
The amount of building is crazy.
My god, that has got to be the jankiest yet most impressive craft in the history of this game bravo!!!
proxley fishtance out here breaking records, well done!!!!!!! Is using a motor lighter than spinning the whole craft with SAS?
Spinning the entire craft has the disadvantage that it's completely uncontrollable. Non-DLC props/bearings could work but are too heavy.
How did I never realise before that you can change MechJeb settings while paused?
HOW
Congrats to a new Kerbin record!
Really creative!
do you have the restock mod? if so that can lower mass of some parts, but it is still a record even if you have restock
Restock doesn't change part masses, but it does modify drag cubes of certain parts. Restock+ is the one that changes the parts more invasively. I don't use either one. I remember an incident a while back when VAOS had to issue a correction after flying a low mass record using Restock. Are you thinking of that?
@@proxima_fish yes, that was what i was thinking of, thank you for the correction
Yes I remember of that incident, but VAOS was honest about it and made a second video using only stock parts. This was like 1 year ago, my record was about 840kg but your design is so much better, great job!@@proxima_fish
I'M SORRY WHAT HOW THE- WITCH!!! BANISH THEM
Very good design, why not offset the propellers further for more higher spinning speed?
I'm limited by the power generation of that tiny solar panel, and a wider prop needs more torque (and therefore more power) for the same rpm. This was a good compromise between max altitude and power consumption.
@@proxima_fish How did you decide on the pitch of the blades?
@@minerscale I found in previous missions that 15 degrees pitch seemed to work pretty well, so I used that here. Maybe that's not optimal but it works.
@@proxima_fish Neat! Love the videos by the way :)
Impressive work I love that high altitude launcher
Great video! I really enjoy watching you push the absolute limits of what is possible in KSP.
I honestly can't believe you have so little subscribers, you've been pushing the limits of this game so much it's incredible!
I think its because the fan base of the game is not that large and is dying rn?
@@manhhoanguc837don’t think it’s dying, KSP2 is dying but those people were just KSP1 fans anyway
watched this while listening to Mozart 2x Speed Left Ear | Bible In Chinese Right Ear
Hidden Power is so overpowered, I hope it'll get balanced out so weapons can compete with it more.
Really cool video. Guessing you didn't go for speedrun in terms of total missions cause bradley whistance squeezed every last drop out of that one :D
2 launches is absolutely not beatable, unless you want to take a creative definition of what counts as a launch. (I'm thinking science rover or something). Either way, not really something I want to do.
Wow. NASA should hire you.
I'm already at SpaceX!
@@proxima_fishamazing
holy shit bro this is insane, go work at spacex please..
jool 5 go nyoom
First mission could have been suborbital with two wings radially attatched to the CM, pushing the center of pressure to the top of the CM, and SRBs on the bottom, using each other for staging,
That would reduce the total time by maybe 10 minutes out of a 290 day run. I didn't feel like it was significant enough to bother.
@@proxima_fish a 120 boost in science seems pretty significant but ok
@@GrilledCheeseSandwichReal It's not significant when I can just launch an orbital mission immediately after the first one, as I end up getting all that science anyway.
