Acarii Drive is a reaction-less form of propulsion in SFS Discovered By Acarii, Essentially you can make docking ports move a craft.
(Try turning on 0G and attaching a small docking port to two parachutes and another to the end of said parachutes (facing each other) with a capsule on top (for control obviously) separate one of the ports and tada you can fly.
Side note: This is an example of it, newer versions can fly without 0g)

That's OK, thanks for the clarification :)
Ideally you should have precised that when you posted your performance, because as is, it let people think that you achieved this result relying only on ion engines, as required for the challenge.
Don't worry, as promised I won't be mad at you, and I won't bother you with that anymore. Thank you for your sincerity ;)
" it let people think that you achieved this result relying only on ion engines" i did. e.e

Keep also in mind that all previous performances were also established with 1.35. Drag is really low (I would rather say "broken" instead :rolleyes:) in 1.4, so this changes a lot of things...
