Upper stage probe core:

Just an update, I've added Minuteman/Minuteman based parts to the list for the first release to go along with Minotaur 1 stuff. So this'll include parts to build the missiles, but also some parts inspired by the sounding rockets that @Dragon01 mentioned on the previous page.

@DylanSemrau, I think you could be the @linuxgurugamer for part mods.

Maybe you could be the new @Nertea?

He said he's retiring from modding soon.

Looking good! I will be watching this with great interest.

Maybe you can include Orbital ATK's Liberty Launch Vehicle from the Commercial Crew Program for the CST-100 you are currently making.

Liberty was just an Ariane 5 core on top of a 5-segment Shuttle SRB. You can already make most of it using Knes' Ariane 5 and a SRB from reDirect or this mod. All @DylanSemrau would have to do is make adapters for the different crew capsules.

Not to push a a suggestion but I think the only dream chaser mod needs a re texture

The Ariane V Core diameter is 3.75  in KNES, in order to make it fit the Orion from redirect it would need to be a diameter of 3.125. The concept shows no adapter for Orion but it does need an adapter for the Cst-100 which was proposed in Irl. It would also need a new paint job. Here is also a picture of the proposed LES that would need to be made.

I'm not so sure why, but I'm going to attempt to make RO configs for this mod, not sure if they'll work lol (I also just made a forms account)

Been using your SRB's for the Shuttle and loving these so much.

@DylanSemrau

Are the separation motors on the aft skirt discrete parts, or are they part of the decoupler?

Discrete parts

I have a huuuuuge request:   Have fun and enjoy yourself!

[NotMyProblem]

Finally I can make a SLS without clipping parts together.

This mod is the best!

[Jacktical]

Hey! This mod still in development?

[GuessingEveryDay]

@DylanSemrau is busy with a lot of other mods. You can check them out in the signatures.

Hey Dylan! Amazing mod! Just wanted to know if there was a recommended way to set up sepratrons for use on a Shuttle? I've tried different solutions and the low thrust of the separation nosecone makes things a little wonky on SRB burnout.

[Guest]

Sooo, this mod looks cool, but what's different about the SRB's from other mod's like reDIRECT?  (other then being able to recover them)
