Structures for transfer - Pull and Push

[vianna77]

Hi All,

I'm thinking about creating new structures... big ones if I manage to make them... to help transfer ships around.

Maybe you already have one or two of those saved... would you share them here?

I hope they trigger some inspiration for new and better ones.

 

As an example of what I'm talking about, here is my first "pull" structure to help transfer landers around. With nothing attached to it, it has 14.5k dV.
No wobbling (lots of struts ) and it moves really quickly because of the 4 reaction wheels. Very well illuminated.
The XL tank was added after the structure was in orbit. The idea of the central docking port is to refuel the structure.
If you like to suggest changes, please let me know!

Just to add to this topic that seems to be already dead

I just transferred 22 tons of  payload from Kerbin to Dres and still have 6k dV.

Might be a good structure to transfer stuff to Jool.
