Uhhh not sure you can launch that yet, considering you haven't 'officially' launched the Mk1 yet. @TheEpicSquared what do you think?

First iterations launch first.

[StupidAndy]

my first one was awful and spun out of control

but you can launch that first, I'm just designing the second one, I'll grab Mk1

[Skylon]

When will the first launch be? I am second right?

I'm currently editing the first launch (Iridium I demo flight), and yes, you're second.  

What inclination do you want the sats to be in? I'm assuming equatorial.

[Skylon]

Yup equatorial. Make sure you are using the updated version with roll control thrusters. If it isn't posted on kerbalx tell me. Oh the updated version isn't on kerbalx whats the best way to update it (quickest)?

 

Okay updated it now. Does the link automatically update? You will have to re-download it, sorry

for the first launch of the Gloeerian Mk1 I have figured out my payload, a small CubeSat called Troja, meant for future LKO communications

it is meant for LKO around 150,000 meters with no inclination

Craft File: https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/Troja-I-Boxsat

it will be found in the subassemblies

[Numerlor]

Beggar I

Success percentage: 80%

LKO payload : 700kg

Pure cost with recovery: 2220

Cost (customer): 5000

Mass: 7,3t

Dimensions:

Z=8,4m

X,Y= 2,3m

https://kerbalx.com/Numerlor/Beggar-I

While launching make sure that probecore is set for control and before stage disable MechJeb and enable SAS

[kerbinorbiter]

Already developing my second iteration it will be called: Rosica MX (1 million and ten in Roman numerals) it should be fully reusable

[StupidAndy]

oh yeah! disable my reaction wheels in my rocket because I forgot to.

 

[Seabo14]

SeabCo Aerospace is proud to present...

The Alpha/Mod.1!

 

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bzr683cBbGPTVi1NQm9iSE1yb1k

This first gen rocket can take a total of 1.3 Tons to orbit, perfect for any sputnik style POC satellites. RRP is 15,000 for a fully fuelled, freshly polished rocket! Included is a special spacecraft bus, perfect for satellite core, or multiple module orbital constructions. Remember to tell your Kerbals to enable RCS!

[StupidAndy]

okay! since I'm now a PP I will of course provide payloads

first up! I need someone to lift 5 of my GOSAR satellites into medium orbit, around 200km

Spoiler

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/GOSAR-GCS

the next two I origionally submitted to @TheEpicSquared's Epsilon Aerospace thread

I need someone to lift up my Flesba TNASS (Totally Not A Spy Satellite)

Spoiler

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/Flesba-TNASS

and last but certainly almost least, I need someone to lift up my Vagbon I Comsat to a 500-500Km orbit

Spoiler

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/Vagbon-I-ComSat

That is all!

I can do them all. Especially since I already have the Flesba TNASS and the Vagbon I Comsat.  

[StupidAndy]

I have a question,

so if I do a launch of all five of my satellites, then I will have gone over my budget by 30,350 to 45,350, and that's before I add in my other two satellites.

how exactly am I supposed to make money as a PP?

[icantmakemodels]

@TheEpicSquared, Athena I The Helium Rocket has been updated. First stage recovery, hopefully.

 

Instructions:

Spoiler

1. When MJ ditches the first stage: switch to it, activate the brakes and deploy the chutes.  

2. Hope KSP doesn't decide to delete it.

 

Edited June 8, 2017 by icantmakemodels

[StupidAndy]

@icantmakemodels we're using FMRS so we can watch it go down

[icantmakemodels]

Wait, FMRS has been updated? *runs off*

 

---------------------------------------

 

@TheEpicSquared, can I be a PP exclusively to myself? I.e., ICMM Rockets and ICMM Payloads share a budget.

 

Either way:

Helium-Xsat1: http://kerbalx.com/Blacksilver/Helium-Xsat1

Delivered to: Anywhere you can get the satellite to with 2km/s of DV from LKO. (Namely Kerbostationary orbit)

I'm going to try this as an LP, but question...first iterations can't use MK2 parts right?

[StupidAndy]

no, before you become an LP, do a few extensive read overs of the OP so you don't accidentally build a rocket 21 meters tall

[Draconiator]

Mine is 19.1 right now and probably will shrink heh

[StupidAndy]

I accidentally thought that mass was height, make sure that when you are checking the little bar with the stats, you are checking that list of three length widths and heights.

Athena I.

Fully expendable; 34,100 funds without payload or fairing. Est. selling price: 40,000 funds.

What's the payload? Also I would advise against using a vector, it costs far too much, especially if you ar not going to use it. For a 20m high 1.25m wide rocket it is too much.

Yeah you can Ben a PP just tto yourself, like spacex with their dragon craft. However, we do want to get some use out of all the other rockets.

Yeah and no SSTOs either if that's what you were planning

The government will pay you to use your satellites for communications, better the location is for them, the more they will pay.

Check the new(ish) PP rules.

Also, keep discussion to the other thread, this one is just for posting craft.

Sure, you could choose the Iridium 1, but that costs 3,000 more than mine per launch. If you are launching those GOSAR satellites separately, and I launch all of the requested satellites then in total you save 21,000 funds.

That extra cost is for the extra .2t payload capacity, which you won't be utilising. Mine can take 2.66t to LKO. I can take them all.

The government pays you for your satellite services (15% of the cost of the satellite per month, subject to change).

Yes, you can be both a PP and a LP, but you get the 100,000 budget like other LPs. You will be added to the launch manifest.

Those are good points, @Skylon, however:

@StupidAndy Depending on the mass of a GOSAR satellite, I could launch one or two of those as well as the Vagbon I. That way, you'd save 23,000 funds, because you'd be putting your sats on one launch instead of two.

This is where that extra 0.2 tons of capacity comes in: I can launch more sats at once, saving you money.

Depending on the mass of the Flesba TNASS, I could take that and the Vagbon one one launch. I need to know the masses of those, though.

I can take them all.

Here is the launch ensemble for Mun-1, it is absolutely imperative to be launched D16 H0M20, into a 75Km orbit. Enable RCS on launch, but when out of the atmosphere please disable the Vernors, but leave the monoprops. Hibernate the Probe on the trip to the mun, and deploy antennae with 1. Wait till the Mun phase angle is ~111*, then burn till encountered. Then put it into a 30Km Munar orbit.

Cost is 22,750 funds. Maybe I could secure some government funding for such a monumental mission?

Thanks,

Seabo14

Beggar II is in development with estimated cost of 7500 and payload to LKO capability of 2,3t ETA of development is next month
