  1. At the risk of sounding like a dick your creations hardly appear battleship like moreas, unless the term battleship has been radically changed since i last checked.
  2. The problem is its width. You can use radial decouplers without building a horizontal ship aswell if you want to save on weight. Simply stack them and leave a small gap for ejection.
  3. oh sorry didn\'t know that was the rule here. It is changed now
  4. The capsule with nosecone and that isn\'t stock but everything below is. That is why I said the Rocket is stock but the payload (capsule) isn\'t. You can change the payload for anything you want. Thanks for like though
  5. Hey everyone, my first post here. Just wanted to share with you my favorite orbital rocket. VORKUZ III An orbital rocket designed to deliver a diverse range of payloads into a stable orbit. The body of the rocket is made from completely stock parts but is versatile enough to deliver payloads that aren\'t stock aswell. (click for larger) CONSTRUCTION Main Body: 3 x Liquid Fuel Cells with LV-T30 Engine. Sides: 4x Solid Rocket Boosters (stacked and fall away) with 2x additional liquid fuel cells linked to main thruster. Add-ons: 1x ADV SAS, 2x AV-T1 Winglets, 6x RV-105 RCS Thruster Blocks DESCRIPTION With the ADV SAS and RCS turned on this rocket flies itself. It is a slow ascent rocket so initially your vertical speed will hover around 100 @ 90% throttle. The boosters for launch are more for getting the rocket into that speed so it can cruise on its large fuel capacity. Once you have jettisoned the boosters and external fuel cells your speed will pick up to around 600-1000 if you maintain 90% throttle. By the time you have reached the height for orbit you will have around 1 and a 1/2 fuel cells left for the transfer from vertical to horizontal speed. To make up for the lack of fuel I usually put the nose 15-20 degrees below the horizon so gravity can speed the craft up. This is usually enough to gain the magic number for orbit (around 2500 m/s if I remember correctly). What you do in orbit depends on the payload you have, which can be stock or not. What do you guys think???
