Better radial decouplers for the new SRBs?


Recommended Posts

I'm building an SLS-type rocket and the hydraulic manifolds don't seem to work well to hold the new SRBs to the 3.75m tank. I recall once seeing a mod part that was similar in function and style but designed for larger parts. I can't seem to find where it was - doesn't look like NovaPunch or KW had it. I recall that AIES had some new decouplers but I can't imagine why they'd need a real big one. I want the SRBs to be more or less flush to the fuel tank, but still decouple properly. The hydraulic manifolds don't let me mount them properly unless I put a couple of struts near the nose cones.

Any recommendations for the ideal part?

I thought I'd seen one in AIES, and yes - that looks like the best choice for what I need. The other good option is the radial decoupler from the KSO mod. I don't know why I hadn't thought of that, since after all this is a Shuttle Derived rocket!
