(Almost) ATV


Recommended Posts

A cool, semi-compact ATV I made in KSP. It has four wheels that can reach up to record-breaking 9 m/s speeds. It also has 8 LV-1 Ant engines distributed evenly with some SAS to keep it in check. It flies nicely in Kerbin, although I haven't tested it elsewhere. Due to the compact size, there's not much fuel on board. There is some (big emphasis on some) water capabilities; I really only managed to land it in the water and nothing else. Supporting landing legs on the bottom support landing, and there's three large parachutes to land softly in an atmosphere. There's a single seat in the middle for a kerbal to sit on and scream in terror absolute joy. If you slapped on some instruments, this could be a somewhat okay probe.

ANYWAYS, AFTER THAT WALL OF TEXT, here are the instructions:

There are 2 unmanned command pods. I will never figure out which way is up with the probes, and I managed to put the original one upside down and thus reversing some controls. I fixed it by putting a second probe on, near the top, which you can control and have right side up movement. Action group 1 toggles the 2 Communotron antennas. Group 2 extends the two solar panels (Not necessary because there are some nukes on board, but it definitely looks nicer). Group 3 triggers the three parachutes. It's pretty self-explanatory after that.

I have Realchute installed, and hopefully it doesn't interfere with the parachutes...
