Omega 7 Space Pack

Omega 7 is a large refueling station and could be an interplanetary one but that has not yet been proven. The Station carries a large list of equipment for refueling most type craft and other uses. If you plan to keep the station in LKO you could decouple the Nuclear Engine Packages from it's docking ports, otherwise keep them for traveling to other places in the Solar System. SpaceTech is designed for refueling and is one of four support craft, I was arriving at the station with a nice amount of fuel and happy with it until I have time to design a larger refuel ship, preferably an SSTO with fuel containters, I've seen a few on the fourm and like them very much. Cyber Four is a small craft designed to travel long distances on low gravity surfaces. Omega Transit One is designed to shuttle personnel, mainly between other craft and stations. The Matador is an SSTO designed to achieve an orbit of low orbiting stations but there have only been very close attempts and none successful, I believe it is possible for a very skilled SSTO pilot. In this Space Pack I have launchers for each craft each capable of LKO and possibly to a near by planet, so far I have only traveled to the Mun and Minmus during testing. All four craft a capable of reentry at Kerbin and Landing at the Control Centers Runway. There is still lots to be explored and test to be made. In the future I plan to refuel Omega 7 completely and attempt a trip to Orbit Duna or Eve. Thanks for checking out the project and hope you like it!

Operations: 
Omega 7 Refuel Station
At the launch pad engage RCS & SAS, RCS is not necessary until the gravity turn but any loss of propellant is only going to help with weight loss. The first stage will be when the lower boosters have completed their burn. Second stage should immediately follow dropping inner Mammoth engines and their empty tanks. The upper boosters have been causing damage to the lower remaining Mammoth Engines so please keep the extra weight unless you modify the Launcher for better performance. The last staging will be done during the gravity turn, dropping the remaining Launcher. I have been doing my gravity turn at 20,000m very much like you would for an SSTO but much slower. Every Orbit I have done had been completed using the Dawn Engines and the Block Thrusters. If you can make a better gravity turn you may not even need to use this method, but if you do, holding the H key can give you a pain in the finger, I found some weight to put on it. After acheiving Orbit I launched SpaceTech to began adding fuel to Omega 7 to correct it's Orbit.

SpaceTech, Cyber Four, The Matador & Omega Transit One will all be very similar to these flight directions:
At the launch pad engage RCS & SAS, gravity turn at 20,000m very slowly to a 45 Degree then soon after make your first stage dropping of the side fuel tanks and engines. Complete your gravity turn and head for the stars!

Crikey! Good stuff man. Some serious looking rockets there.

Good stuff @Castille7, that single launch space station is YUGE!
