I add features to my version of the ITS and try to bring the ship back down from low Earth orbit. Modlist: https://www.dropbox.com/s/1rjka9kqq8nr9to/EtFmods.txt?dl=0 Thanks to SQUAD for making this marvelous game, which you can get at http://buy.kerbalspaceprogram.com/aff_c?offer_id=2&aff_id=1118. Also thanks to all the other KSP players on YouTube and Twitch who gave me the inspiration to do these videos in the first place.

the V shapes on the sides looks like they are meant for aero-stabilization, like vortex fins

Earned a subscriber. I just got KSP and watching this just makes me want to get better at the game.

Very interesting model along a nice flight back into the atmosphere. But why is that part so nose-heavy? shouldn't the engines weigh quite a bit?
-
Absolutely smashing video. You've made a lot of progress on this, and it seems like you're getting pretty damn close to the replica.
Will you be attempting a full Earth to Mars to Earth mission once everything is complete? -
The BFS does have a body flap: half of the interstage fairing stays on the ship to protect the engines.
-
Superb as always I have been thinking about the launch escape system a little bit more since a Pad abort seems almost impossible. How about ascent aborts with the Raptor engines of the spacecraft it self and then ditch or land in europa or abort to orbit and maybe return to launch site.
How feasible would this be in your opinion? -
wow, gotta respect work like this :O Are those engines any mod? Or you made em yourself?
-
I wish that mod was up to date that would let you go back in time to re enter the second stage
-
You could activate the radiators...
-
Will you try to SSTO the ITS,as Elon suggested that it can makes orbit with only the ship.
-
oh dear lol, thats a bit funny
-
Nice! Thanks for the mod list.
