Oh this is good. Kudos!

[Mach_XXII]

Wow these are great!

[Woopert]

Awesome! These will help the process of making Space Shuttles a breeze.

[falken]

Wow! Going to have to use these...

[gilbr0ther]

I doing a normal map to the next release.

tell me if you guys have any suggestions!

[Taki117]

These look amazing! Gonna wait for the R5 release of B9 before I get them, but it's nice to know that they exist.

[DracovaXIV]

Good job, makes it easier than using Procedural Wings, plus they have those iconic curves. I'm sure these could be given good TweakScale configs, too.

Now what we really need is some cluster engine mounts for B9 parts...

[Abdu]

omg this is awesome !!! thank you

you could try these engines, they also have trim adjustments that can be done via action groups, just need a mount to fit B9 or 2.5m coz you have the B9 to 2.5m adapter in the B9 pack

Also i would be interested to know if anyone has tested these with FAR installed and how they perform?

I've been using these since 0.23. The "mounts" that you refer to are exactly what I find lacking. For example, I want an S2 body adapter to, I don't know, 3x 1.25m and 2x 0.625m, or some other adapters like an S2 to 4x 1.25m, 6x 0.625m and the like.

it may not be exactly what your after but it could be close in the near future construction pack, have you already tried it? http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/52042-0-24-Near-Future-Technologies-%2816-08-14-All-packs-new-parts-balance-fixes%29

YOU ARE THE BEST THANK YOU SO MUCH

now I want to use b9 ...

[Space_nico]

Thank you so much for this nice mod! Now my shuttle will flight the right way! Ah ah!

But, I don't know if there is a difference between the two wings. Hope that I can help you for it!

There is a gap beetween the wing and the aileron?

[gilbr0ther]

Yeah, I hadn't noticed this. I will fix and release soon.

Thanks Nico!

[Space_nico]

No problem!

[HerrGeneral]

It's too bad this came out now- if it was earlier you might be able to get it integrated into B9 5.0 itself! Fantastic work, though.

Very nice! Now I wont have to raid the wings from the soviet pack any more. Thanks!

[Infinity00]

If only it were possible to have just one standard wing surface, that you could mirror across to the other side of the fuselage. It would solve a lot of my frustration with building spaceplanes with slightly misaligned parts. I understand that the textures make that a little unrealistic, but hey. A boy can dream, right?

[Shad0wCatcher]

Welllllll it IS possible with lo-fi's Mirror Plugin LINK but that would require this to be dependant upon that plugin.

[bac9]

Very nice work!

One suggestion though - you can actually make shielded wings without having to create duplicate wing parts. Yes, KSP "symmetry" is utter crap and does no actual mirroring, making wings that are not vertically symmetrical impossible to attach right in the stock game, but you can make use of the Firespitter mesh switcher module that is available in B9. Simply include two wing models (one vertically mirrored) or maybe three wing models (one with no shielding at all) into one part, mark all but one with Icon_Hidden tag and disable their gameobjects, then reference stock B9 parts to get a mesh switcher config working. Boom, you have shielded wings without part clutter.
