MiniKerbalShuttle v1.5

[KallangoVerde]

A few days ago this was already pretty cool. Now that there are more things I'm almost putting in the main mods folder.
great job friend, congratulations!

Is it normal that I cannot edit my own posts, including the first page?

It is not. 
 

This is an edit. Are you clicking the three dots in the top right corner and then selecting “Edit”

This looks really nice! Definitely will install.

Hey there, I gave this a try.

The models are so nice! Amazing texture work.

The  SRB attachment is pretty wonky. They were flopping around during launch attempts, strut application fixed this however.

The jet engine nozzle is blocked. When activated the exhaust comes out of.... nowhere.

The jet engine appears to be too weak to push the shuttle, it just falls like a rock even with max throttle on the engine.

I can’t for the life of me get into orbit with the launch stack. I’ve tried manual, and mechjeb. There’s just not enough fuel to circularize at a reasonable altitude (100km).

The external tank/rocket thing is pretty nifty.  Ovalish shape is cool.

Thank you for feedback! although this was my first add-on, I was not very happy with it, so I'm doing a big rework of the add-on, for example:

Textures will be improved.

Welded flaps are already a separate part and are being tested, they will be able to change their position by about 30 degrees

a robotic arm will be added, which already works great in the game.

A new docking port is under development, which will be significantly better than the current version, as well as a different payload will be added.

The balance of some parts (for example a jet engine) will also be changed.

Sadly, the plane with which it would be possible to launch the shuttle for some reason refuses to work correctly: \

That looks amazing! I look forward to the update!

Looks really nice - I like the detail in the texturing.

[DimonD]

It looks like I'm entering the home stretch, it remains to refine some of the nuances and add more payload.

Some changes:

The engines will now be on the shuttle, not on the rocket.

Many textures have been improved or changed completely, such as tiles.

movable fins are fun of course, but I had to suffer a lot to make it work 

Some payload:

all changes will be noted at release, the update is not yet complete.

Incredible work, as usual. 
Are those inspired by the Starship tiles?

Thanks!

Yes, I think it looks more interesting than just tiles.)

With the different naming  of the space shuttles are they different parts or same part but different textures?

I'm sorry, of course, for such a question and that I'm distracting you from work,but will there be more large-sized shuttles?.

Мило!!! Что это за цилиндр под хвостом?

Это реактивный двигатель для захода шаттла на посадку, если он не долетит до взлетно-посадочной полосы

Thanks for the support!

I have two options for an almost classic shuttle,  but there are also a few more projects, so I can't promise anything.

У меня есть два варианта почти классического шаттла, но есть еще несколько проектов, так что я ничего не могу обещать.

 

Always know that the community loves such authors who pour their whole soul into the ksp,and we are ready to wait, and for a month and a year, the main thing is that the mods are not made on film, but with difficulty and beauty.

If you're interested in another tiny shuttle, there was the Chelomei LKS proposal.

I know about him, but at the moment there is no desire to make copies of real ships. : )

And what do you plan for the future can do something so unique that no one has done at all in the ksp

I think that everything was already in KSP, it is difficult to come up with something unique from simple details, I just do what I want.

Okay, so:

(1.12.2, KSRSS 2.5x)

- Great artwork!

- Cool payload ideas, especially little Blok-D and "sat-in-a-can".

- Cannot fly in 2.5x or similar rescales. Well, technically it CAN achieve orbit - but without any payload (not even docking bay) and with almost all of its OMS monoprop expended.

Thanks for the kind words! I am still working on it, more payload needs to be added.

Do you mean this add-on?

 

It's just as easy to get into orbit, maybe you're tilting too late?
