Help needed: Kethane Miner

[Skorpychan]

This is a good idea - perhaps the small converter with a sr docking port to stow underneath the lander - it needs to be a sr really because the lander sits between the spaceship and a kethane scanner satellite - I'd probably need a jr docking port and a tug to move it in to place - there is another option to add it to the top of the lander so it could have a probody and rcs so it can move itself on to the lander while in orbit...

Give it a rockomax 02 adapter underneath, and strut from around the converter down to the adapter, to make forces bypass the converter. You can then slap a Sr docking port on there no problems. That should mean it can nestle underneath the lander with no problems, and the struts stop the connections flexing.
