Beale Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share Posted February 29, 2020 I might circle back on this one a little, but nice experiments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machinique Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) Do you plan to just clean up the historical parts, or are you thinking about making the early ETS Europa parts as well? You'd probably only need a couple extra, since most of the second/third stage parts are handled by Knes. The 1.875m Tank and angled mount for the RZ.2s would probably be enough.

Quite a difficult question to answer right now - I think first I will replicate the existing CRE catalogue, and then go forward. Big things on my wishlist beyond what is already in CRE: RZ.20 engine Blue streak parts Europa follow on parts maybe an early crewed capsule inspired by Vostok or Mercury ... ETS stuff? Not sure, I want to stick to the real Europa and follow on ideas. For the base Europam @Well's KNES does a great job, this can just provid the lower stage, and maybe the Astris if that's needed.

Machinique Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Gotcha. I think that the Blue streak parts would enable the ETS Europa 1 & 2, and it'd be easy to cobble something for the 2-HE using BDB, cyroengine, KNES and ISRO parts.

Guest Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 ETS Europa wasn't really all that different from real proposals. Indeed, some of the real ones were a lot weirder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might try alcolox see what it looks like I'm going to be a adding a couple of new plumes, brand new Alcolox and Hydyne plumes in the next update which is coming soon. The alcolox one pictured below I think will be suitable. It also might be better for you to do the pull request once its out to RealPlume-Stock so the plume can be adjusted and maintained on that side. Thats the arrangement @Beale and I came to with Tantares as well. Edited March 1, 2020 by Zorg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtualgenius Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) @Zorglooking at the footage of the plume its opaque with a hint of orange they ran like 8:1 mix HTP to Kerosene if i get the plume right and peeps are happy is it ok to get it added to the pack or add it to the cre pack Edited March 1, 2020 by Virtualgenius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beale Posted March 8, 2020 Author Share Posted March 8, 2020 (edited) GitHubhttps://github.com/Tantares/CRE The rework, 50 years on you can fly your very own R0. The Waxwing is not available yet, but you have a bunch of parts. Type "Black Arrow" or "Blue Streak" in the VAB to get some parts. Parts are liable to change, so be careful to not get too attached to any. Edited March 8, 2020 by Beale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beale Posted March 10, 2020 Author Share Posted March 10, 2020 Strarting to get places. The Blue Steel will be the only crewed vehicle of this mod. It's a small spaceplane, and I'm planning a little flexibility between three configurations: Cargo Passenger Space Station There's a little overlap on all of them to give you the necessary minimum things you need.

Did you plan to use stock part? or to make a new model for every part? (Inline Dock?) Did you have tested Aero rentry with that thing ?

To answer the questions: Plan is custom parts for everything, body, fins, dock, engine. Aero entry is... not good. But working on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
