[1.7.2] KK Launchers - Delta, Atlas Pack

[Cheesecake]

No, first F9 1.0.

[StoryMusgrave]

I would agree. Start with 1.0, we've been without a good 1.0 for a while now. Then make the steps to 1.1 and 1.2/FT.

[Delta_8930]

F9 v1.0! We haven't had one of those since KerbX!

[mahboi818]

I would also like the F9 v1.0, we haven't had one in a long time!

[Kartoffelkuchen]

Great, that F9 1.0 is the first one! I've already started, and I have stage 1 finished now. It is now made of 48 sides instead of 24 sides, and it's general shape looks better too. I am now going to post all my dev images in this album, which will also be linked in the OP, so make sure to check regularly!

Full Falcon 9 family is planned, the step from 1.1 to 1.2/ Full Thrust should not be that big, since it only seems to be extended tank lenghts and "uprated" engines, whatever exactly that means.

Also, on spacex.com, it already shows F9 Full Thrust, the only really hard thing about that one is M1D and M1Dvac, since those really don't have any to M1C related components. My question now: I planned to redo F9 1.0 for more detailed models, but actually, do you want to have 1.2 first (or 1.1?)

Uprated engines just mean that the engines have a higher thrust setting, as in the case of the F9.

Hi, I'm having a minor issue with the Delta II 7920H. I'm having separation problems with the 3 air-lit motors. When I issue the separation command, a bunch of metal struts just fly out and the boosters don't separate. Anyone else having this issue?

And by the way-DELTA III IS AWESOME! I'm using it right now to launch all of my scientific payloads!

[Kartoffelkuchen]

I've already fixed this for the upcoming patch, I attached the boosters to EELTT instead of attaching them to the booster decoupler, sorry.

Thanks very much!

[MysteriousSteve]

Are you thinking of making the Atlas III? I would love to see it in the modpack.

[Kartoffelkuchen]

Check the OP, I've added a list to it what is in development and what is planned.

If you need any help with texturing I Recently Made a bunch of texures for a Delta IV series I did for myself.

All Re-Textures of existing parts to hold myself over till a good and proper Delta IV series was released.

Your Delta IV looks really good And by the looks of your SLS I'm certain your texturing skills are top notch. Man those SLS parts looks good

[Kartoffelkuchen]

Interesting Arcturus, nice textures, as far as I can see. Are those Chaka Monkey parts? And yeah, I hope to release D4 in a not that distant future. If I need help with texturing, I know who to ask!

[Delta_8930]

Does anyone have the problem on the Delta 3 where half of the fairing is still "leaning on" the rocket after the separation command is triggered so that it falls away a few seconds later than the other fairing? I'm usually at 25-30 km at the moment of fairing separation (end of first stage burn).

[mark7]

Will there be a RO patch？

[StoryMusgrave]

Mark7: Configs for KK rockets are already included in RO, if not the current release they are in github and will be included in the next release of RO.

[Tristonwilson12]

kart your inbox is full

[Kartoffelkuchen]

@Delta_8930: Hm, I will increase decoupling force. For now, try to point the rocket perfectly at prograde.

Finished Falcon 9 modelling now, texturing hopefully by the end of this week:

[Kerbal01]

You ever figure out the RCS arrangement of S2? I saw your NSF thread, a great example of ITAR at its finest

[Delta_8930]

Ok, thanks, I will try editing the .cfg files.

Also, what happened to the Atlas launch tower that was featured in the Atlas V promotional video? Where can I get that?

[MajorLeaugeRocketScience]

Kart have you thought of making some of the crazy rockets? I have a friend who (was) at NASA working on this huge EELV based rocket that was up against SLS way back when.

Here's what I remember about it;

-Boosters: Delta II and Falcon 9 1.0s, cross fed into main stage

-first stage: Widened Delta IV stage with 3 Delta IV main engines

-second stage: Lengthened and widened Delta IV heavy upper stage with a single J-2X.

-Optional 3rd stage: IUS

- - - Updated - - -

I'll write an email later asking for better info

Scratch that second stage, I'm pretty sure it was a shortened Atlas V first stage with Vaccum rated RD-180s

I really like those Delta IVs, where can I find them? They will be a good LV to use while KK works on his Delta IV

[MajorLeaugeRocketScience]

Am I the only one that STILL has the fairings not seperating?

[liquidhype]

They work fine for me. Are you sure you installed the OldSchoolFairings (folder named "Felbourn") with the AeroHider .dll? That is all you need for them to work.

[MajorLeaugeRocketScience]

Yes I have it, but only the AeroHider.dll. Is anything else required?
