Moho Lander/Return

[Yukon0009]

Okay here is the ship that landed me on Moho and returned.

It has 10k dV- shouldn't be hard.

Might be helpful for players struggling to reach Moho.

It should have fair enough margins-I only returned with about 100 m/s of fuel worth, but that was because of my sloppy piloting.

Try to start in a Kerbin orbit under 80 km, the second stage should still have half a tank to begin trans Moho injection.

The lander itself has rather thin margins, with only barely enough fuel to land and reach medium orbit, so do the rendevous with the mothership.

The ships don't have RCS, so just get as close as you can and EVA across- and don't forget to take the science, there is 3 science instruments on the lander.

Return should be simple, slow down a bit prior to hitting the atmosphere with whatever fuel you've got. Aim for about 30-40km.

If the "hab module" spazzes" around (which it will) just open and close it.

Happy landings!

Great work! Is this rated for other planets as well?

[Yukon0009]

The mothership has about 9k dV once in orbit, so yeah, it can reach other planets, but not sure about landing.

what is the first part after the decoupler on the return-stage (main-stage)? i just play stock but i dont remember that. did you clipped something together?

[Yukon0009]

It's the inline docking port.

What are the lateral toroidales tank for ?

[Yukon0009]

Adding some extra dV. Besides. they look cool.
