A shuttle-ish thing...


Recommended Posts

I think of a space shuttle type craft as something that

 

  • uses mk3 fuselage parts 
  • has SRBs
  • Is parially reuable
  • no jet engines

My attempts to actually make anything that looks like the Rockwell STS haven't turned out so good,  so this time I just built it according to whatever RCS build aid, Kerbal Wind tunnel,  and CorrectCoL told me to do.    Spent a couple hours trying to balance the thing in the hangar (strakes being added all over the shop) but it went to space first try, which is good for a Shuttle.

It looks a bit odd though, especially on the pad...

Eight fleas get it moving upward,  two Kickbacks take it supersonic,  2 darts get us most of the way to space then it's all down to four nervs to get us into munar orbit and deliver our payload.
