I'm not sure how I feel about this.
Well, here goes nothing.
-
Update looks great, but my Diamond 40 still stalls at 90kts
(So much for slow flight). Still great for rockets though!

Okay, so here's how I see it.
If Ferram and all the people making contributions want to see their product be used, they need to update the front page and get on the top of their game. 1.2 has been out for months and people have been asking weekly when it will be out. There needs to be a layman's terms, no questions asked explanation of where we stand and what needs to be fixed for a release. Ferram, a published estimate on how 1.3 will effect a prompt release would be wise to just get everyone off our backs and give them a timeline to think about so they aren't spamming us.

There is already one like this in Red vs. Blue Continued in Mk2 form factor
Red vs Blue is outdated. Plus, i'd like to see blackheart's take on it.

Im quite suprised because of that part, it'll be useful for boarding kerbals and rescue stuff.
What im wondering is, do you plan to make a bomb bay like this for size 2 parts
Oh my god yes. Would make for a perfect F22 missile bay.

love the mod makes refueling in flight easier. May I suggest adding a boom with drogue that way my aircraft with probes can use them to since. Also is it possible to make a smaller pod so people could engage in buddy tanking with a smaller aircraft acting as the tanker.
You apparently didn't read the post directly above yours very well.
-
So what about the 1.2 update made a release take so significantly longer than other updates? No complaint on the time, i'd rather get a product that's polished and ready to rock than a prerelease, but is it changes in the way 1.2 handles physics? What messed up the flow?

So here is a similar model, I will finish other work, you can see it in the next version. Oh, and it's size is 0.625m!
That is perfect! Thanks for putting in the time and effort!

I will make that although it is so small or even like a toy.
Incidentally, I already made a kind fuel port like what do B-2 Spirit using in real world and it is Mk-2 size. I think you will like it.
Here's what I mean, this wing mounted pod but in .625 form factor:
-
So, it seems like the new theme of new tantares is less modularability and more "recreate old stuff", since the soyuz main stage is now one part instead of two, etc. Is this what you're going for? If so, i'd be interested in upkeeping old tantares.
-
...now add VOR's, intersections, GPS waypoints, airspace, RVSM, transponder codes, flight following...
-
Ok I finally wrapped my head around the parts, I love this mod already
just made my circumnavigation by Cessna possible. Any chance we could see smaller refueling pods, like .625 size for smaller tanker aircraft?

Thanks for your support, sorry for slow update because I'm a student
I think manual mode is not necessary, it is really really hard, so I think I will not add that.
About the fuel transfer, it's not stock fuel transfer, if you read the source, we just use "RequestResource" to transfer fuel. When it is docking, one side will consume fuel and another side will produce fuel. It looks like transferring fuel but actually, it isn't.
And of course, when it is undocking the fuel consumption and production will stop.
Cool, I figured out you can fly the aircraft manually and engage the probe "magnet" once you're sufficiently close enough. Does the supply aircraft lose fuel proportionally as the recieving aircraft gains it? It appears the rate of flow is about 20 units per second to the receiver, but does the tanker lose fuel at the same 20 units per second rate while docked?
-
What about a manual mode? Also, how is the fuel transfer handled? Is it through the stock fuel transfer or scripted? Id like to use the parts, but manual refueling because... fun

Thanks!
Old Tantares is more complete, but (IMO) much lower quality - it also contains more random craft selections (American Cygnus, Japanese Fuji).
Spektr!
Cool, so will new Tantares have the same parts as old Tantares just with better textures? (I really hope it does, my entire lifter series uses parts from Cygnus, Soyuz, etc.) If not, will you keep those parts up to date?

Love the mod. Keep it up
Couple creations of mine with some of ur parts:
WOAH.
What mod for the refueling probes & drogue?
-
So, whats the difference between old Tantares and new Tantares?
-
Anyone having an issue with the particle effects from flares and stuff following the aircraft?
-
Just what I needed to finish my F-5E...

Some remote controlled action. With electrical propellers driven by a fission generator in the trunk, the drone has a 20.000m cruising altitude for 6 years
-The iSpy mkII
What mods?
-
Oh thank the lord... PEW is back!
-
Well if we're on the topic of airbuses... How about an IAE V2500?
-
Can someone post a pic of the new F16 cockpit? I'm at school and really excited

(Images soon to come. Check back soon!)
SpoilerThe Kerbstream Global Series 300 is a medium executive passenger transport (A fuselage extention of the GS200) designed for short regional transport. The GS300 sports the same luxerious cabin with comfortable arrangements for six passengers, including a full service minibar, micro kitchen suite, and other accoutrements.

(Please excuse the dust, this post is most definitely a work in progress. Images of the aircraft and further details will be added in the near future.)
(So much for slow flight). Still great for rockets though!
