[Stock] The Joy Of Sepatrons

[MachXXV]

I love nice clean staging with sepatrons - here's a .gif of one of my designs

[GusTurbo]

Very nice gif. I love the way the sepratrons spin the final lower stage.

Yeah, sepratrons are cool, right down to the little "DANGER: BIG ROCKET THING. DO NOT DROP" printed on them. I used them on my latest SSTO as an emergency escape system, and I probably did too many tests just because ejecting the capsule was too dang fun.

I'll have to try that spinning-ejection thing you did with that stage in your gif; I usually accidentally blow up Poodle and Mainsail fairings when I start the engine, and that was pretty slick in comparison to what I usually do.

Could we get the craft, along with flight instructions? That ship is just awesome.

Really loving the seperatron "art" there. That might just be the inspiration I've been looking for.

(ie.I was trying to rethink how I design my own boosters again, as mine's getting over complicated with the different engine types on board.)

This is one of my favorite separations, (a tad unnecessary) but it keeps the nuclear motors safe, and looks cool

I like that idea, I'll have to try that next time I've got something with side mounted engines like that

Another one of my favorite Separations, this is the launch abort system on my Komarov-One Mun-Tug

Use in flight:

Wow, I never even thought of doing that with engines. I'll have to incorporate that into my designs.

Sepratrons are cool.

GMTA. I thought of that exact NERVA shield design a couple days ago. O_O
