It is shaping up to be a pretty spacecraft, very mouse-like with a little black nose. Only issue is to figure out how solar panels are to be placed.

New Parachute Model Something 99% of persons reading this thread may not find very interesting. But I have used the same parachute model since... many versions ago. A good example of something that slipped through the cracks! This one is a lot more round! But, not too many extra polygons. Very smooth update...

Guest Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Oh, everything you've been up to is very interesting! Once 1.1 is released, I'm keen to try my hand at some Chelomei designs now that I won't have to improvise the majority of the parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a lot of VA-based craft to be made, a lot of fun to be had... What about the Fuji? Well, the fuel tank layout and attachment is driving me crazy. Leading to absurd parts like this: Any suggestions on how to lay things out - greatly appreciated!

hraban Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Nice, you rework the DM-SLB to 1.875 size? Please do that and give them a optional Fairing. A nice thing was the todorial tank with 3° rotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A nice thing was the todorial tank with 3° rotation. Thanks! But, it is the same size as ever, just clipped! Optional fairing would be very good addition. Craft Test Flight After 'balancing' the parts... Very good! Engine is quite inefficient by design, but general large fuel tank means the craft is very gutsy and fun to fly. You can take this guy many places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjsnh Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Yes, a 1.875m fairing base would be awesome. I'm currently using a modulemanager hack to scale the tantares fairing base (the ... "flat sided" one, not the "tapered" one .. if that makes sense) to 1.875m and to 5m, but having a native part would be great. That new little engine is also going to be VERY useful in making craft like the LK-700 lander, which right now require radial engines and are a pain to construct. Between all the things we've seen over the last few pages, the next update is looking to be pretty epic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Araym Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 I found a little problem/visual glitch with Soyuz RCS: it seems that their model texture is still paired with the OLD engine model texture (checked the date of the model file, and it is the same from older one) so with ther reworked engine, they have no colors... (My fast fix was put both RCS and model in a different directory than the Soyuz one, changing the model path in the cfg and recover the texture file from an older release... ) Just to let you know the problem and work a solution for future release, Beale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legoclone09 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) @Beale Can you work on Taerobee a bit more? I love the work on Tantares but Taerobee isn't fleshed out much, and hasn't seen an update in a few months. If you need some inspiration, maybe something not seen much, like Robert Goddard's liquid fuelled rocket. But I am loving the new LK-1 parts, they look very good.
