Multi-axis Gimbal for Solar Panels

Recommended Posts

Was looking at some pictures of surface outposts and habitation facilities on moons and planets, and I noticed that people are forced to either have the solar panels placed on the top, or sides (obviously). Multi-rotational frames that support the panels would be great for increasing the efficiency of solar panels. 

I can't mod, but here's an idea!

Thanks, and you're welcome.

There is a mod somewhere that created inline solar panels that rotate and tilt towards the sun,

However there were two panels in the config, and only one visible. if the hidden panel was deployed then the kerbal touching it would explode the ship.

I think it might be http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/130907-darksidetechnology-v-02-beta/&do=findComment&comment=2383308

but I can't see pictures from work so I can't be sure.
