Minmus Probe series


KAO

Recommended Posts

hello, this thread is going to showcase various probe designs which I have been building as of late.

After reading up on the Russian 'Mars' Program, I have decided to make semi-analogues of those probes, to more complex crafts that would resemble probes that would have been produced had the program's budget been multiplied and actually been successful.

mods use are:

Novapunch remix

Kosmos

Probodobodyne

Damned robotics

fixed cameras mod

mechjeb(for robotic, non-crewed crafts)

and finally Prometheus Solar Rover pack

.craft files will be uploaded tomorrow as soon as I have a chance. For now here are some pictures

/\ unsuccessful due to limitations of either the mechjeb mod or the game. Once landing stage decoupled, the kolibri decoulpled from the landing stage simultaneously.

Final resting site on frozen methane lake. The Kolibri made about 5 'jumps' with its on-board rcs fuel reserves, with the fifth being the approx. 17.8km jump.
