[0.19.1] - STAR series Turbo - Upgrade, more effective and efficient! double intakes

[Climberfx]

For the few ones that tried my STAR SSTO's, i present now the Turbo series.

This is Mechjeb version for now, but if you want a stock version, just ask.

The Turbo series have the double intakes from model before. 6 for each turbo jet. So it almost put the Craft on orbit, using the nuke only for the minimal final circularization.

Have the same 3 versions, Normal (with 2250m/s dV when on 100km orbit), the Junior (around 1250 m/s on orbit), and the Baby (near 650 m/s after orbit)

More effective, more powerful.

The Normal can make far travels in space. I already put one on Laythe.

The STAR Turbo Mj reach Laythe with orbit refuel on Kerbin and then on Laythe again.

Could land easily near my Laythe base, then come back on orbit, and still have enough fuel to do it again, without the need for refuel.

Perfect for transport between ground base and orbit bases.

Is my most loved one at the moment.

Wow. That looks awesome! It's VTOL, right?

VTOL, STOL, SSTOL, NOTOL, ahuahuahuahuahua

It fly vertically, and can make some minor adjustments on horizontal, if you be careful. To land on Pad, for exemple. (video)

At the moment i'm finishing the crash test for the new one to join this family. STAR Family.

The new one will be 3 Kerbin, and is almost ready.

Man, i'm loving doing this series. It's amazingly efficient and powerful.

You can see here the first generation of STAR's.

The ICE is second generation, and TURBO is 3rd Gen.
