Is it too much ?

[Hdeedose]

If you are here to see BIG rocketry , then it isn't the best place to go . Recently (2min ago) , I've created a satellite and a rocket to go with it . This mission have to go on Minmus and will carry around 4Tons of satellite , for a total of 4 satellites . There is three relay satellites and one rover which will land on Minmus . I've started playing 1 week ago , so I don't know how much power will be needed . I've unlocked the medium rocketry an half hour ago , so for me , it is BIG . Here are the pictures :

The satellites .

The rocket .

Is it too powerful ? Or not enough ? Answer me !

It depends. If you want your rocket to be over engineered, then sure, that looks like enough. If you want something that doesn't waste fuel, then go a little smaller. Here is a few tips before you begin:

1. You don't need all those fins and RCS at the 2nd stage, it will actually make the rocket less stable during ascent.

2. When you separate the SRBs, you will lose all your fins, the only fins will be at the top, and if you are not high enough in the atmosphere, the rocket will tip over, so attach the bottom fins to the actual stage and not fins.

3. If you want to use fins, I would go with the AV-R8 winglet, not the delta deluxe.

4. You should probably install Kerbal Engineer, it gives you delta v and twr readouts that tend to be more reliable than the stock ones.

5. Here is a delta v map so that you know how much fuel you need: https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/87463-173-community-delta-v-map-27/

6. This should probably be moved to gameplay questions and tutorials.

Mission (almost) accomplished ! the rover is still in orbit but the relays are in position ! I still have around 1900 fuel , so , I think you were absolutely right DunaManiac , it was too much !
