[0.19.1+] NASA Apollo LLRV (Training Vehicle)

[R0CKSTAR3N3RGY]

Just tried making a replica of NASA's LLRV with stock parts.

Now includes ejector seat version!

Download Just The Ejector Seat Here.

Download the scenario for instant LLRV action!

There are three crafts in this download:

Apollo LLRV is probe based, it can be boarded via ladder by a Kerbal.

Apollo LLRV Mk. II is pod based and is much heavier.

Apollo LLRV w/ Eject is probe based, it can be boarded via ladder by a Kerbal. Second stage is eject, be careful!.

Start training!

Re-uploaded, removed an unneeded part creating asymmetric weight distribution on the Apollo LLRV.

Awesome, better than "Ancient Stock Launcher" version

Does it come with an ejection seat? Otherwise, Neil Kerman is going to have a bad time... You have to put one in there ASAP if it doesn't!

The engineers decided you had a decent point there.

Your wish has been granted!

Excellent work on the LLRV's! And you have to love those Kerbal ejection seats. Amazing what they can accomplish with some leftover fireworks and a whoopee cushion.

[R0CKSTAR3N3RGY]

You're going to love the new %50 more efficient ejector seat!

[Wait- Was That Important?]

That is the most beautiful and functional seat I've seen in stock KSP. Care to provide a few more pictures, pretty please? I love the placement of it on the craft as well, the structural panels look nice.

I'm awful at anything that's not a rocket or ship, but I actually got this going well a few times (probably half the time I was able to work it, woohoo!)

[R0CKSTAR3N3RGY]

Improved Ejector seat some more to keep the pilot in! Now offering 99% efficiency!

Added download for only the LLRV w/ Eject!

well, dayum.

I was gonna come up with a flattering comment, but I'll just say: hat tip to you, sir.

This is AMAZING. THANK YOU!

Tired of having to put a Kerbal in the LLRV? Just use this scenario to load up an LLRV with pilot ready to go!

I love the ejection system! lol

[joppiesaus]

Whoa. Definetly going to "train" with this thing!

I'm curious how it works (not having tried it, so it may be really obvious, but i'm at work...!) - do you have to switch focus from the kerbal to the ship again to enable the ejection, and do the chutes deploy automatically, or do you have to keep focus on the probe?
