[Stock]The Duna Project

[Giggleplex777]

Inspired by Guard13007's Eve project, I decided to make the Duna Project, something I have been working in the past few days.

Here are the Rockets:

1. Murs Rover I
   
2. Murs Rover II
   
3. Kuriosity
   
4. Kuriosity 2 X1
   
5. Kuriosity III
   
6. Explorer III
   
7. Beta Ib
   
8. Beta II

Coming very soon!

Here's Kuriosity it is't the best rover, but it's pretty good for 1 hour of work (building the rover, testing the rover, building the skycrane and launch vehicle, launch, landing on the moon, and finally, exploring the moon). Controls: q right turn, e left turn, L forward, j, back, b brake, g landing gear. Oh yeah, and the rover can return to Kerbin as well.

To detach the sky crane, throttle up until the rover lifts off slowly and hit space.

Without further ado here is the Crossbow. It can take off, land and take off again with plenty of fuel to spare if flown economically. Yes I know I also submitted it to the Eve project, but it was originally for the Desert Planet anyway.

The Crossbow is a cool design, but those 27 mass units of rocket engines sitting in stage 6 make me cringe I'll probably do some kind of work like I did in Eve I to cut them out....

Other thing you might consider is to use the smaller 1m LVs instead of those you have. I do not recall the Murs g , but even on kerbin 3 of those + the aerospike would be more than enough to take off.

I'm attempting to work out the flaws in it now. This image is the same as the Eve one just so you know, the large boosters are mostly to fight Eve's thick atmo. I'll be back with an update.

So far I'm getting a lot of success with the Beta Ib and Beta II. I've managed to land them on Minmus after placing their mini satellite in Mun orbit. I had so much fuel left on the Beta Ib that I went into a Mun orbit then a Minus orbit, and finally returning home.

So far all my landers are designed to stay on Murs, but I'm working on a lander that can return to Kerbin.

Lolz epic fail... the desert planet was named Duna. Time to change the thread name now.

Hey Giggle, you mind putting up a .craft for your ships?

Soon... I have Kuriosity, a prototype that you can download.
