Saturn IB


Recommended Posts

Ever wanted to fly something like a Saturn IB? Wanted to make a Skylab, but couldn't make a good Saturn IB? Well I'm here to save the day! This clone of mine can fly by the Mun, and return! It uses fuel cells for power, includes monoprop to dock, has an abort system, and includes it's own launch tower (100% Stock). It's 114 parts (Launch Tower).

You fly this like any other rocket, however, it has a 2.3 TWR on the launch pad, so throttle down a little. Stage 2 comes in at around 20-30km, and that will push you most of the way. Stage 3 is the service module, the thing that flies you around in LKO, and brings you home. Tested 3 times, fuel levels adjusted, kerbals barely making it out alive (you should've seen flight 2), and ready to fly!

And here's the download for the Saturn IB

Happy flying! Go make your darn Skylab now XD
