Compact Reconnaissance Probe

[DauntingFlyer]

I've made an interesting looking probe that I thought I would share.

Mods Required:

NovaPunch 2.05;

Kethane;

Extraplanetary Launchpads.

A compact, 2.50m wide unmaned recon probe, used to search and find suitable areas for mining and starting new bases in other celestial bodies and be used as a target to facilitate future landings. It comes equipped with Ore and Kethane scanners and a parachute.

Press "2" to toggle the Ore Scanner on/off;

Press "3" to toggle the Kethane Scanner on/off.

With its opposite facing thrusters you can achieve great hovering capabilities, if you tweak the thrust limiter and propel yourself with the RCS. Though, I do not recommend it due to the limited fuel capacity.
