Custom painted Soyuz + old AB launchers nose cone and engine. And yes, very nice Polyus there! A friend just told me that the Polyous was actually launched head down, so the TKS derived module under the fairing actually have the engine, while the aft part is the laser aperture! Now beat my Buran Who's the boss now? Edited April 2, 2018 by Drakenex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddavis425 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 (edited) How old are the craft files from the OP? I just tried them out and there's a lot of gaps and clipping and such. On the Almaz some of the antennae are pointed in the wrong direction, where if you extend them they just extend inside the craft itself. I want to make the Mir station but I think I'll have to rebuild the modules. Edit: With the parachute problem and this question I feel like I'm starting to sound like that guy... I promise I'm not trying to be a pain Edited April 2, 2018 by ddavis425 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddavis425 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I finished building my Mir replica. I didn't really like how the craft files in the OP were designed so I rebuilt them. I spent so many hours last night staring at reference photos... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robotoaster Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Hi guys, I am playing so I wanted to scale LV parts for it. Because I am lazy I've created a simple script in dart. https://gist.github.com/swavkulinski/76b08c81ba0681f7e6699a12e086f42e to run it copy it into https://dartpad.dartlang.org/ and run, it will generate scales. I think only thing which needs manual edit is a TLV_0_Fin_1 because it should be free scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But keep in mind that most of Contares' spaceplanes are really hard to control since they use overpowered reaction wheels instead of aerodynamic control surfaces.
