its just a joke about how Kerbal folks replace C with K. Battlefield 4 had a expansion called China Rising. KhiNa = China. KhiNa is rising.

Start texturing of CUS

@hraban is there a reason your CRV / Lock-Mart CEV was removed from 1.8.2?

@TimothyC

The CRV was created by @Well and has been investigated. Then the CRV was forgotten in the Contares Mod directory.
At this point an apology to @Well. The CRV was removed.

Does the CKC capsule have a historical or conceptual counterpart?

Am I missing something about what RetractableLiftingSurface is supposed to do? I would guess it makes the control surfaces operate, but they still do nothing in my game.

I don't think that it should make them move , If I remember correctly it just enables/disables lift for parts , although I'm not sure , if I'm wrong please someone correct me

@CaptKordite

Conceptually, CKC is based on early conical capsules.
Historically, there is no model, the part is a pure imagination product.

@Z3R0_0NL1N3

RetractableLiftingSurface is a small plugin that is used in 2 parts of the Contares Mod.
On the one hand in the "Paraglider 1" on the other hand in the "CBB rotating Wing", both
produce lift only when extended.

@NeoFatalis

it's right

@hraban Are there supposed to be control surfaces on parts like the Kliper, then?

As explained in previous sections, the Space Planes like PINBOL can be easily controlled. You are free to add control surfaces. The Space planes are not changed from previously described reasons.

Pictures to the preliminary end of the KSRO / ISRO development. Provisional publication with version 1.8.3 in two to three weeks.

 

The next project deals with a small selection of Salyut and MIR components on the scale of Contares carrier rockets.

are you planning to make a whole station or just parts of it?

At the moment the project is still in the planning stage. Surely there will be no perfect imitations, which is too boring and nonsense for Kerbals and KSP.

KALJUT Project start's with a part of pictures mixed out of Wings3D and ingame.

At this point thank you for the excelent Solar Panels to @Shadowmage. Contares use your Solar Panels for this screenshots with additional Tweakscale function.

Oh, nice! Personally I think the Proton is kind of a boring rocket, but you couldn't launch Russian station parts without it.

Contares has KRAFT-M (Energija M) and RIVER (Angara), both have the capacity to launch station parts in low orbits. Not to talk about YENISEI and cooperates with ALIYANA

KRAFT-M sample (only one booster mount)
