RIP to that one guy from the first challenge that used only SRBs for his whole run, whom Bradley insisted do the same again if he ever did a second challenge
Nah his craft will just be so long it will reach the end of the course before he even starts it
Well fuck
You can actually turn down SRB thrust limiters low enough for the engines to last for 100x longer or more, of course you will get barely any thrust from that but it is still interesting.
With 8 and half minutes of thrust with starting twr of 0,4 for raw booster, i think its manageable, but it would have to be huge
you mean this guy? ua-cam.com/video/N-778VZdoAA/v-deo.html&t
Someone has got to fly a Saturn 5 through this
Challenge accepted! ( 99% Fail )
is it even possible?
I'm planning to do a 747 run
If i have ksp ima use starship for this lol
Done!
You can detect biome changes in vanilla with a surface scanner!
The title was a top gear episode parody, wasn't it?
TONIGHT: I fly a plane, Hammond eats a sandwich, and James organizes some spanners
@@BradleyWhistance 'ery noice
@@BradleyWhistance 'elcome to Bottom Gear mates
@@BradleyWhistance nice
@@BradleyWhistance i now realized that the title would be at its best if you named this video "Top G : The source of the River Kile".
Would love to see someone do a heavy airlift run.
Proposed requirement: internal cargo bay carrying 5000 units of Liquid Fuel - not accessible by aircraft engines (show the tank is still full at completion of run)
A while back I built a B-52 SSTO with a pretty sizable cargo bay... I'd have to check if it can carry 5000 units, but if it can, I might give this a go.
Update: it can indeed fit 5000 units of Liquid Fuel. It was a little fiddly, because of course Mk 3 fuel tanks don't fit in Mk 3 payload bays, but I was able to get it there with 12x 400 LF Mk 1 fuselages (4800 LF total) and 4x 50 LF Mk 0 fuselages (200 LF total). Whether it will have the endurance to get all the way across the course with this much dead weight, I'm not sure, but I can at least attempt the challenge. For added fun factor (and because at this point, what's a bit more mass) I'm going to try and complete the course with the 5000 units AND all the orbit-specific stuff like monopropellant, RCS thrusters, solar panels and airbrakes, etc. I'll let you know how I get on!
@@PoorFoxface good luck
@@PoorFoxface Looking forward to the results.
@@eriklindbergs5017 The run is up! I completed the course in just over 1hr 35m with the cargo, then dropped it like a bomb from ~1km up and flew back to the KSC on fumes. Originally I'd meant to put chutes on it, but I forgot, so the "delivery" wound up being directed by Michael Bay. Oops... Unfortunately KER's overlay made the liquid fuel readout mostly illegible, but if you look at the leftmost number when I drop the cargo you'll see that the remaining fuel drops from 8XXX to 3XXX.
I thought about swimming it but after some quick calculations I realised that it would take at least 4 days of real life time. Not that I wouldn't, but I think my computer would die before I finished that.
I might do it but no promisses. My corvette can do it in a few hours
Dam you really burnt through 32,000 m/s delta v. And if you fly faster you need more. If I do this challenge I might just stage some fuel tanks.
Someone make a minimalist version pls😅
Minimal electrical prop, so you don't have to worry 'bout fuel
How about I do it in my Cessna Skyhawk (2-4 tons)
I can see it now. Somebody on a command chair, with a singleton electric propeller, a battery or two, and some solar panels (the fixed type on the wings, probably.) A probe core would be very similar in weight to the command chair-pilot combination, but the chair has comedic value. Flying lawnchairs, anyone?
I made a ssto using the uhhh, I forgot the name of them, but they smallest ones
3:00 you didn't say anything about coming in from orbit ;)
He didn't indeed...
I would say that anything not expressly forbidden by the rules is permitted.
@@robinsuj ok I'm probably going to use the decoupler kraken drive to push me through this.
May not get time at all, but in theory can one enter multiple times?
Say, a serious run to set a good time and a run with an inventive vehicle?
Sure!
Ill install wings and jet engines to a saturn v, brb.
Is staging okay? Like drop tanks or shedding parts of your plane?
After reading the doc I'll assume I'll just need to make a new class for such a type
Staging approaches would be great to see!
If you go to too high an AoA, the airflow can completely separate from the wings, too
That is a really nice type of competition! I'd love to see more of them!! Maybe also on different planets!
Hey Bradley, for testing purposes, could you give the co-ordinates if the starting location? Helps for those of us with slower PCs.
Think I'm gonna go for an endurance run, runway to runway without cargo aircraft and such
Can’t wait for boomchacle’s submission
I see my jebediah will experience 30gs today (and crash on a wall 34 times lol)
"Hello everyone"
that's one baller of a video title.
Wow, such a ride!
Yee exciting!
I might enter a boat into the run. But it'll take forever to get through the course. Especially turning a lot. It definitely has the fuel capacity but it can't break 100 m/s in its current configuration. A variant broke Mach 1 but that was purely a record attempt, not a racing boat that can function in a river.
Speaking of which, I would love to see you try to make a *fast* boat.
also im gonna be using a small SR-71 alike plane :)
This will be the perfect test for my new 747 replica
YAY!!!
I'm waiting for the person with the time and patience to drive the entire length
that is me
I want to try something related, and in very Bradley Whistance style. Not to mention it won't require halfway reasonable piloting skills. I fly most of my missions with MechJeb Smart A.S.S surface angle buttons...
Now this is pod racing
Yes, Our god hath been active online again
someone should make a huge flying ship with 200+ passengers. i know i cant
strike on enemy HQ
Rules
1. a large amount of SAM and AA lining the course useing BD AROMORY placement is up to you
2. a mix of 50 SAM/AA Emplacements more if your computer can handle it
3. Max SPEED 857.5m/s any faster and BDA explodes when passing form testes
4. must have one 2000lb JDAM or nuclear armament to hit the target
5.must be able to escape the blast zone before inpact the enamy base is at the end of the cource and has its own SAM/AA ENPLACMENTS
ps is there any were BD armory is avalble for the latest version of ksp as that is all i have acess to
Alright who’s gonna make an zepplin?
Is it ok to use the Mission Builder to create a launchpad near the start of the course? My design uses a...questionable launch procedure that is difficult to move.
on the old monte karlo course, i accidentally passed the 400 meters right at the end because i was only paying attention to kerbal engineers biome indicator. if i would have used an airplane that could do it in just a few minutes i would have retried, but i was mainly going for asthetics and my craft is extremely slow because lots of draggy parts, juno engines, and weird centers of mass, lift and thrust. and completed it in almost an hour. do i really need to do it again to qualify?
One of my favorite movie is Les Chevaliers Du Ciel. I guess I can make the long run with a replica of Mirage 2000, and beat the Americans.
What if I walked underwater with that walker I got?
I am so doing this chalange
Someone's gotta do a Saturn V.
Thats it. I'm buying a camera because my pc can't handle screen recording and im going to make Jeb walk the entire course.
Please save me.
Would you accept a run using the ground effect mod? By using an Ekranoplane?
Ace combat vibes here
i am going to use a helicopter, a submarine and a boat!!!!! (in diferent runs and all in one)
Anything goes
Pretty sure it's outright encouraged, especially if you can do the whole thing on nothing but SRBs
Is Atmosphere Autopilot allowed?
when EA NFS is more expensive than KSP
When is this due?
i think im gonna fly my solar electric vtol plane through it. it does about 150 on a good day...
can somebody tell me how to display drag-forces on parts when right-clicking them? sorry i'm a noob when it comes to mods. i'm happy i was able to install KER without deleting the internet
Go I belive it is either in settings or the alt f12 menu
How long is the course? I have a very creative idea, but I don't want to take more than a week to see it
about 700 km
@@BradleyWhistance alright never mind, I do not think you want to watch a 50 hour video
@@olive6942 What were you going to do, have Jeb swim it? :P
@@f00flghter29 close I was going to have bill walk along the edge, and theme the entire thing like a big expedition.
How about that - hiting apexes at match 2
How do we find submissions from others?
check the document that brad linked in the description

I wanted to participate but i use a phone and i dont have ksp :(. But in the future i wanted to do this and posot it on youtube by:
My plane inside a carrier plane and drop my plane around the beggining of the start and my carrier plane will deactivate engines and deploy parachutes on the carrier plane and i just focus on the jet im gonna be using :)
What’s up
I'm good
Does it count on older KSP versions?
Quicksaves allowed?
So, what's not allowed (in terms of the actual build/flight)?
Non-stock parts and cheats (unlimited fuel etc.). Launching your aircraft into the course at a high speed. Flying higher than 400m (now I’m wondering if it’s possible to skip the course while staying below 400m, maybe even go around the other half of the globe). I guess in-flight refueling (though that could be fun).
Staging and part clipping is allowed. Cheating to the start of the course is allowed. Landing at the start or end is not required (-> don’t bother with landing gear). A pilot is not required.
@@Mike-oz4cv ahh, that clears everything. Thank You!!🙌🏼
When is the deadline?
Where are these
Can this be done with a submarine?
Do it!
Hi
where do i send the kerbaling link
montekarlchallenge@gmail.com
@@BradleyWhistance i sended the message
Is a glider against the rules
if you can glide 700km then you can have a medal
You sound like Sam Harris with emotions.
Ideas of mission:
_fly-by all the planets and moons of the stock game with less than 1000 m/s of delta-V from LKO
_reach the highest altitude possible with propellers (I personnaly broke 23 800 m)
_RESCUE BILL!!!!
It's way too simple without FAR mod and high-AoA maneuvering. Basically it's gonna be 1970's low alt high speed AA penetration concept. Hope you try it at least, with some more advanced plane.
Yet still, cool idea and good video :)
How are you doing during corona? It's been tough for us all.
