New Station Components

Kosmos Station Parts, however we changed the textures and the dimensions.

These ones you did are sized down? They do seem monkey sized....rofl

Modular Common Bulkhead Upper Stages

• For EMLV II and III 3.75 meter systems

• Adjustable upper stage performance to suit mission

• Short interstage fairing included

• New upper stage tank sizes and textures

You do good work YANFRET

Dat bulkhead.

[YANFRET]

☻Update

The new modular common bulkhead architecture enables more precise booster configuration. Here we have EMLV I - no solids, using the minimum upper stage config, to place our Exploration Habitat module at 162 km and not a meter more. From here Orion launched on EMLV III can dock with it and use it's classic Chaka IUS upper stage to go places.

[Budgie]

Welp, time to start spending my last few moments with my current save, because I know I'll abandon it when the next Chaka Monkey version comes out!

[YANFRET]

Precision continued:

EMLV I delivers Station Solar Expansion Truss to 700km orbit with 8 meters per second to spare.

Yanfret, does the CM pack have a rocket with both Orion and a lander for a one-launch Mun or Minmus mission?

Great question!

No.

We have considered making a petal style interstage similar to Apollo for stashing a habitat module in place of the upper stage in the SLS system, as has been proposed by Boeing and NASA. However we have not gotten around to making it.

I suppose a lander + Orion arrangement could be made with modified CFG's for existing parts but I'd have to think about it for a moment. That would be a tall rocket!

Quite! I don't know if this is current, but those Block II rockets are massive

[Arcturusvfx]

Yes they are, but quite efficient.

The level of detail in the texture and models in this mod is amazing, and is one of my favourite mods.

I used the EMLV II to make an interesting composite image.

[Mecripp]

LOL that looks sharp nice job !!

Looks cool, How have you made this montage? Is it just some photoshop?

Pretty much, just some photos I put together and some light and colour adjustments.

I do plan on doing some more if I can find the time.

[Pac0master]

Oh ok, that's cool. I will see what I can do there

By any chance can we get a part like the Karmony Warehouse Module that has the doors on it ?

EDIT- LOL to funny "Advanced Monkey Grabber"

No, because pressurized habitat modules are not similar to B-29's

We are however working on a Chaka version of the Advanced Grabbing Device, isn't that nice?

We shall call it the "Advanced Monkey Grabber"

You can still use Bobcats IVA for it and if you want stock RPM with it to boot in the thread here some one made a nice fix for it, It's what, I use for it.

EDIT- Think this is it http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/64993-0-90-Chaka-Monkey-Exploration-Odyssey-0-27-1-EFT-1-Commemorative-Edition?p=1526519&viewfull=1#post1526519

Is there a config for us Realism Overhaul guys? The capsule would be perfect for 100%-sized SLS. The largest one.

There is a tweakscale cfg in the thread.

Still working on it, I promise. It took me quite a bit of time to get a stable RO install going. Most of the tanks are done, but engines are still too buggy to push an update.
