Fairly large RCS powered probe

[Dual_Boot]

Hi, i'm new to the forum. I just got done tweaking this bad boy and thought i'd share. sorry if the pictures are a little dark, i wanted to demonstrate the lights i put on there.

Got this little guy in orbit around the moon right now. once i figure out how to fix it's crooked orbit, i will try to bring it back to kerbin. it has a decent thrust to weight ratio outside of kerbin's gravity. i may even be able to land it on the mun and take off again. the only problem is it's a hassle to get it ready to launch. you have to disable each monopropellant tank one at a time. it has a clamp o tron jr. docking port as well. so when i actually figure out how to rendezvous and dock i can refuel this thing. i used a VERY big rocket to get it into orbit. probably isn't very efficient.

And this is using just RCS? Yikes, you must have LOOOOOOOONG burn times for manuevers.

Actually, the burn times aren't unbearable. much more tolerable than using an ion engine. and if i did the math right, it has at least about 2000 delta v, and a thrust to weight ratio of 0.22 on kerbin. i mostly made it for looks though.

Actually, the burn times aren't bad at all. i had to cheat to get it back in orbit around kerbin. (i was looking at the wrong notes concerning the delta v). it worked exceptionally well. i am considering adding another docking port to the back to attach a booster module for larger transfers.

this may be off topic, but if i post a picture of the delivery platform and provide a .craft file, could someone help me optimize it? sorry if this is the wrong place for that, like i said, i'm new.
