do you want a list on about when they should be put on the tech tree based on history of when the where launched? or some one to re wright the files? it would take a little reasearch but i could likely help you out.... though I expect when this gets supported by RO it will be taken care of......

I would preferably like a list of what to change in every config file, entry cost, cost, tech required etc... I know RO is getting configs for it but not everyone uses or wants to use RO, so the stock configs should also have these changes.

Also the science modules on every probe are just placeholders, anyone who wants to make changes to decide what probe should have what experiments feel free to do it.

Well I know something that needed for some things I want to do, is a camera.... but I will see what I can do to find out at least some of the info your looking for

Most of the parts that had cameras have hullcam support already. Only galileo and magellan still need it because I was too lazy to add it yet. It will be there in the next update.

With the TDRS sat they should have small thrusters,

"The Boeing-built Inertial Upper Stage that was to take the satellite from Challenger's orbit to its ultimate geosynchronous orbit suffered a failure that caused it not to deliver the TDRS to the correct orbit. As a result, it was necessary to command the satellite to use its onboard rocket thrusters to move it into its correct orbit."

Could it just have some RCS thrusters with about 5Kn of thrust?

The TDRS launched from the shuttles were a different design made by a different company. The one included in this pack is the TDRS-K, which was launched by Atlas-V. It does however still have thrusters on it somewhere, there are no good references for this so I'm likely going to have to wing it.

Okay so this pack is awesome.

When the Delta II model is finished we should cross link the products with each other because it's a perfect match.

Especially thrilled with your attention to detail, your solar panels, and the wide variety of very important spacecraft depicted.

perhaps this would help?

Thanks I had the same picture but in a much lower resolution, apparently when I downloaded it from wikipedia I was too stupid to select the original resolution. I suspected those were the thrusters, I actually already finished them a couple days ago I'm just withholding releases until I finish a few more things up(and after christmas as I'm very busy).

Hi raidernick,

i found some problems on US_Probes_RT.cfg, i show you error from output_log

[ModuleManager] ModuleManager: 1081 patches applied, found 6 errors
6 errors in GameData/US_Probes_RT.cfg

i use ModuleManager 2.5.6.

Edit:

KSP.log :

Already know about the errors and they've already been fixed for the next release.

It's nothing gamebreaking now though, if you want to get rid of them yourself just replace those % symbols with @ symbols.

I don't suppose you could quickly edit a special copy of Explorer for me with one solar panel that doesn't open? :)

(So I can use your model instead of making my own for Project Alexandria's Explorer 6)

Give this one a try
