I've been treating them as standard SRB's this whole time. @CobaltWolf Is there any plans to modify the tweakability of the boosters/tanks to allow for the width/height to be altered independently? You can't throttle them normally, they just have a 'thrust curve' where they start at one thrust and gradually change to another, lower thrust, so their TWR does not change as much.

Daelkyr Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 @CobaltWolf Did the team ever decide whether to add a decoupler to the LEM descent stage? It would ease part count and contribute to the "non-LEM parts need not apply" mentality of the craft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wahgineer Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 @CobaltWolf, maybe make a radial version of the engine mount covers (that is the cones surrounding the base of the S-1C) so we can mount F-1's on anything, allowing us to make our own LFRB's?

They're really not modeled in a way that would let them be easily separated, but it shouldn't be *too* hard. I'll see if I feel a need for them. For what its worth, I was planning on trying to do the Pyrosis boosters (the old Saturn ones, not the modern SLS ones) if thats what you mean. 4 hours ago, Cdw2468 said: I just noticed "memes" emblazoned on the side of the rocket, will this be in the final cut?
