Using the grey Tantares 1.5 D tank instead of 2 white C tanks, while less authentic, works better. The R-01209 engine is very quiet compared to other engines. I needed to use both an Alnair LES B and an A to be able to pad abort the dual capsules. It might help to have attachment nodes on the tops of the LES to account for that. I don't understand why the attachment node for the short LES A is set 0.6 meters away from the base. That's a great build. Thanks for identifying a few bugs - this is of course a WIP release, I'll resolve those soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Reonic Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 @CaptKordite what launchpad is that with the trench behind it? Not talking about the MLP base and towers, I mean the static everything is sitting on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now the N1 is a little smaller than it should be, but too powerful 200PPM vs. 100PPM Old and New Will the engine finally individually swapable? Also can you make jettisonable upper stage skirts seperate part like in bdb's S-II not auto shroud please, I want to make N-11 Edited July 9, 2020 by derega16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From @Zarbon44 Engines will be separate in future yes, though FYI Restock already has a fantastic NK-33 Edited July 9, 2020 by Beale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I moved it from it's original position in the Great Desert to the Woomerang launch site to better emulate Baikonur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old N1 was too small in scale with the Lunar Mission set up. New N1 will be perfect size. Also NB4 someone combines new N1 with Saturn V somehow. Perhaps an N1 with Saturn V side boosters.

Right now the N1 is a little smaller than it should be, but too powerful Actually really glad that you're rescaling it. I thought the size made it really hard to actually find a use for - far. far too powerful for small payloads, but too narrow to mount most heavier payloads. Unless you just wanted to launch like a hundred soyuzes stacked end to end or something (??) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
