R&DD

From the look of it, no. I think the hub/tug had the fairings on it to be aerodynamic and was piggy-backing on the plane up to space... I also think the plane was decelerating when the fairings released, that would explain the spread.

Perhaps too many fairings? Kinda can tell from your banner...

A rover that can drive on it's back if flipped over, and with the same set of wheels...

I don't know what bad icky is, hmm... similar to KerbalX however there they don't seem to post helpful comment such as "...can easily over-maneuver with..." etc. Or tech level i.e. this rocket can be built with the General Rocketry and Survivability nodes, etc. for career mode folks.

What's the impact tolerance? Would be cool to rig it to a lander/rover...

I am building a website that will be similar to the Spacecraft Exchange, however have added features such as stats (TWR, top speed, mass, etc.), ratings/comments about in-game performance, design features, tech levels, classification (boat, rover, rocket, atmospheric plane, etc.) and more. The biggest thing I need right now are spacecrafts and I was hoping you guys/gals could send me some of your best designs. Just send the .cfg to [email protected] with any comments on what it is/does, mods needed to make it work, and what version of KSP (I have 0.23, 0.23.5, 0.24, 0.25, 0.90, and 1.0(.2)) Thank you! The first version of site should launch sometime around July 23.
