Compact, yet huge folding satellite

[cy-one]

Heya :3

I'm just so very much excited about the amount of freedom some mods give you to express your creativity.

Currently - for me - that means having LOADS of fun with Infernal Robotics and RemoteTech.

I always liked the folding capability of real satellites and probes... And now I can do similar (or maybe: more! )

Love it! :3

That transition surprised me.

Insert "That escalated quickly" meme here

Not exactly Stock.. but still cool.

Oh shoot, I wanted to mark it as Mod Craft. Thanks for pointing that one out, -ty-

That satellite is now used as ... I have no idea what the scientific correct word would be. It's in the same orbit as the mun and will be used as communication-satellite, providing the munar kethane base under it with an uplink to KSC.

It's not in the munar influence sphere.

I used to be opposed to getting mods, but after downloading B9 Aerospace I can't get enough of them. Too bad they always crash the game on me five minutes after loading.

Mhm, next time you load, do it in windowed mode, so you can observe the task manager at the same time.

If you go too wild on mods, ksp.exe will run out of memory and crash.

ksp.exe is a 32bit-program, and so it can only use up to 4 gigs of RAM.

Thats one big sat, It looks AWESOME!

Very cool!

Cool, but do you really need all those batteries?

NICE!...I've been using the RemoteTech mod alot, and sending up lots of GPS-CommSats, and have had issues with stability while getting them launched, cuz of having to build them UP, instead of OUT....Guess I need to start using Infernal now.

By the way, cy-one, what mod are those smaller dishes from?..I dont recall seeing those?

Those are Communotron 88-88s. Stock.

@Goldham

Honestly, I don't know

But as other things (like the munar base) will rely on it having power to be able to have a connection to KSC... Better safe than sorry. And those batteries don't weight so much anyway.
