New from Probodobodyne Industrial! The DIY Probe Kit! Current parts roster: 2 probe cores Aeroshell Aeroshell coupler Strut Radio Dish Experiment Rack 2 solar Panels Radioisotope Thermal Generator Sensor Unit Camera Mount Fuel Tank Engine Mini lander leg Detachable core Antenna Coming soon: Landing ring (like on the Venera landers) Big openable aeroshell Note: all parts except the cores have zero drag so they affect flight as little as possible and don\'t obliterate themselves on liftoff. Download: Dropbox Mediafire Action shots! Note: some parts pictured are from The Silisko Edition
0.7 released http://www./?3srl06ejeziut0v http://dl.dropbox.com/u/575558/Kerbal%20Space%20Program%20-%20Silisko%20Edition%200.7.zip Added 2m RCS tank Added new SRB Added midrange 2m engine Added second lander leg, now fits inside fairings Added half height fairing panel Decreased weight of quad coupler Retweak of most engine efficiency values Changed RCS a tad Removed PSD file that was bloating the filesize (derp) Lander engine can now be gimballed Re-added SAS module Winglets made a bit more effective
Enough. A multitude of pages in this thread have been devoted to Tiberion arguing about this pack. No more. Expected changelog for 0.7: Added 2m RCS tank Added new SRB Decreased weight of quad coupler Retweak of most engine efficiency values Changed RCS a tad Lander engine can now be gimballed Re-added SAS module Winglets made a bit more effective
With the upcoming version, this rocket got me to the mun with more than enough fuel for multiple orbital adjustments, and a full return trip. And that was with pretty poor piloting.
Yes, and having decouplers that weigh 0.8 vs 0.05 helps to encourage staging immensely, right? You can get much higher with a stack of 4 LFTs and a main engine, then a stage and a single tank + small engine than 5 tanks and a main engine alone.
I\'ve been having wobble problems on big rockets too, lately. I also still need to work on making rockets work decently effectively... hopefully my new changes in 0.7 will help this.
Been doing some tweaking to efficiency values. Also I decreased the amount of RCS fuel in the service module, and increased the weight of RCS in general. The lander engine is now vectoring capable, to make landings less taxing on RCS.
