Some updates on the new rocket:

This is a 2.5m Fuel Tank, designed for the new rocket, which will be called Esperance. You will also get a 2.5m to 3.75m Interstage Adapter, so you can place this on top of a SLS core stage. Should be looking pretty cool! :)

Oh, and we have just passed 600 downloads! :cool:

I am working on a 1.875m Service Module, "HESM" (High Efficiency Service Module), which can be used in really many constructions, like Resupply Modules or upper stages for rockets. It has a really high Isp (392 Vac.) and 100kN thrust and a liquid fuel amount of 540. + it has RCS tanks and built in RCS thrusters. Here's a small album which shows some possible uses of the stage:

I am planning to make a full station resupply module, HESM is the first part of it. Hope you like it so far (though don't mind that strange UV map which makes some interesting effects on the tank, I forgot to uncheck something in Unity :S). :)

Presenting: The Falcon 9 (Will have to thing of a real project name later):

Javascript is disabled. View full album

Including everything you need for making a real Falcon 9! It has a diameter of 3.125m, the Engines are 0.9375m in diameter (Merlin 1D) and 2.5m (Merlin 1D Vacuum). Gridfins will be added to, landing legs are included (+ deploy animation of course)...yeah. I have to do texturing now, and then configuring it for KSP. I hope to release it before tomorrows SpaceX CRS-7 launch and landing attempt. I am optimistic to get it out before. :)

Yes, right now there's one adapter like this in the pack, but there will be more. ;)

Can you move it up in the tech tree. Because I have half my tech tree unlocked and I still don't have it unlocked.

Also your version of an lr-87 would be great!

@sp1989: I'll see what I can do. Maybe even a full launcher with the LR-87..? Titan maybe? We'll see.

So guys, a little poll: Should I leave it with 3.125m diameter or better rescale it to 2.5m? I think I'd prefere 2.5m, it gives you more possibilities to attach payloads to it. What would you think?

BTW, a Dragon 2 is in the work too...

Sorry, Falcon 9 is not yet integrated into Career Mode, I will do this later, I wanted to release this now, I will be on holiday for the next week. Gridfins are not yet included, I will have to find a way of how I can actually make them useful in KSP.

I hope you'll like it! :)

And @Sideswiper22: You'll get your version without the SpaceK! ;)
