M700 alternative with ScanSat support

[Friznit]

Is there a mod that provides the same functionality as the M700 with a smaller model, ideally radial attachment?  I'm building some probes and the M700 size and shape is quite restrictive.

If not I guess I can make an MM config for something suitable

SCANsat's own parts, mebbe? vOv

Tho, they have different types of scans, and have different orbital altitudes for scan operation... so it may require moar probes/launches to get full SCANsat results... I dont remember what results a stock M700 gets with SCANsat... vOv

@Friznit I've been getting into scaling down the M700 for that reason. It's annoyingly large for its purpose and how close it needs to orbit its target, especially when I disable the stock scanning method.

@Stone Blue I forget if SCANsat has a resource scanner. If it does, it's likely the multispectral one that also reveals the biome and slope maps.

Yeah ScanSat doesn't have an M700 equivalent.  Think I'll take the tweakscale approach then.

Octosat actually has one that's a fairly reasonable size (it enlarges quite a bit when deployed).  Not radially attachable, but there's a few radial attachment nodes around...
