Small ship designs

[WhiteWeasel]

This is just a very quick question, but for my satellite I'm using small liquid engines. What is more efficient for it's mass, toridals or Oscars?

toroidal gives you more fuel for less weight so i would go for that one

You can't really stack Toroidal's on top of each other though, so you should go something like this:

.|Oscar|

|Toroidal|

.|Oscar|

|Toroidal|

.|Oscar|

|Engine|

Of course, you could also try using Ion Engines instead (which is what I use for my Satellites)

I do have ion engines, just that I want to have a backup in case I need a lot of dV in not a whole lot of time. Since Ion engines are low acceleration, I want to keep the mass a low as possible. So one tank or the other, leaning for the toroidal.
