comradephil Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Your idea of rest needs more boosters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Amaro Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Here\'s an idea for a part that I\'ve been thinking over:A 0.5m, or maybe even 0.2m diameter solid rocket booster about the length of a standard fuel tank that can be mounted radially. It would have high thrust and very high acceleration, but it would have a rather short burn time of about five seconds.It could be used for a multitude of purposes, such as satellite propulsion, lunar ascent, emergency de-orbiting, or as a means of accelerating a stage before ignition.

icefire Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Higher thrust with smaller engine bells/combustion chambers doesn\'t make sense. There\'s a reason powerful engines like the F-1 and RD-170 are HUGE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Flixxbeatz Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 And so I decided to use this pack since Nova had already permitted mixing this with other mods and I made a simple orbiter rocket.And damn: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icefire Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 DV capacities, though any real rocket will have lower values as these are calculated assuming that nothing but the booster itself is being used.RT-10: 6210 m/sRT-20: 7985 m/sRTX-20: 5803 m/sRT-B20: 10.5 km/s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC3craze Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I saw some pics of rover wheel tests a while back. Were those ever added?They were intended for the Probodyne pack, Nova decided not to release them because they liked to bend and explode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flixxbeatz Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Thanks to this pack, I\'ve now learned how to use RCS thrusters like a boss. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newe6000 Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 1. I have 17 RCS fule tanks, 16 are the outside balls and the 17th is a single wide one. For some reson the game chooses the 16 balls first and uses them up in about 3 seconds.But thats not the problem, when one gets used up then its fuel seems to re-set so I always have 16 full and 1 being used no matter what.2. Your cover dosent break off at all. Not in the atmosphere or in space, it just stays attached and dosent do shit! *ragequit*3. not your problem: but this pack lags SOO MUCH for me D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
