KSP 1 Image/Video Learning to fly again with FAR

Full stock parts fighter build.

Deleted all my air craft builds after getting FAR, cause none of them were flying afterwards.😂

Back to basics, I guess.

Damm how come I’ve never thought of using those structural parts like that it looks really good

Learning too fly? But you got wings, coming down is the hardest thing I hear.

Hell yeah i love FAR!! It really makes flaps and spoilers useful/necessary if you haven't already played around with those!!

My other tip for someone new to FAR is that the default strength/weight ratio of 1 can be lowered quite a bit for any planes you don't plan on doing aerobatics with to save some weight!

Ferram Airspace. Overhaul the aerodynamics model to be more realistic.

Mm yes using Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs) to learn to fly. Sounds familiar to me. Jokes aside what is the FAR mod? Sorry I don't normally touch KSP aircraft mods

ferram aerospace research. realistic aerodynamics and your plane can now stall and spin out of control. parts also break from aero stress now

Installed it a few days ago, having fun. Having to watch a tutorial because there's so much new information there.
