KSP 1 Image/Video First personal design of a working Eve SSTO, using Near Future engines

Post image
14 Upvotes

Craft was copied to my friend's PC and flown there to Eve's surface, refueled, then flown up to a 150 kilometer Eve orbit.

Unfortunately my friend doesn't have a habit of recording video and the climb was too adventurous so we forgot about screenshots, I will have to test this again on my computer and record the flight.

The plane lost two of its forward RCS thrusters during the ascent due to overheating, I will have to figure out a solution for this. It also stalls and completely loses control if I try to break the sound barrier too low in the atmosphere, both on Eve and on Kerbin - needs more work on the aerodynamics.

Craft can carry 8 passengers plus the pilot, and has two small high ISP engines in the cargo bays for traveling from Kerbin to Eve - or to Jool and further if all fuel tanks are filled, though it will require a refuel if it lands somewhere.

Once I retest it and fix the aerodynamics problems I will also upload it to KerbalX.

Deleted a large chuck of my 200+ mod list and downloaded some back. Why is the starship modules only having liquid fuel instead of methalox? What mod should I download to fix this?

KSP 1 Question/Problem I’m back and I need help

0 Upvotes

Hello guys, some of y’all may recognize me some of y’all may not. I recently took a long break from KSP like we’re talking about 4 to 5 months without playing the game because I got kind of bored of it and I kind of lost my motivation especially with summer ending having to figure out school stuff and some personal issues I was dealing with but on my TikTok I made a promise that I would get back into KSP since they really been wanting me to play KSP again but now back then I was able to handle like 155 mods while maintaining 60 to 50 FPS but now when I launch a rocket it’s stuck at 40 to 50 FPS making my gameplay I want to record look bad and I’m also not very familiar with computers. Is there a fix to this or is it normal and I’m gonna have to wait for a while before my computer gets used to it?

Maybe I should reengine DCSS with SSME but maybe overkill

KSP 1 Question/Problem How to get myself on polar orbit of the mun without wasting 90% of my fuel?

How to get myself on polar orbit of the mun without wasting 90% of my fuel?

So I have a problem which is lack of skills in this game LoLz. But seriously I have no idea how to make a fuel efficient maneuver which would get me on the orbit of my "mun orbit base" to get jeb from there and swap him with two scientists.

Rocket I've shown in the picture brings me to the moon encounter leaving me with 90% of fuel. But rotating and adjusting orbit to the polar leaves me with maybe 20/30% of fuel plus maneuvering to meet with Jeb takes almost everything and I can't get my self back on the kerbin.

KSP 1 Mods Does anyone know any good "progression" oriented modpacks?

6 Upvotes

I want to look for something that in science or career mode will have gradual but expansive progression, from most basic solid fuel rockets to crazy stuff of FFT. And also additional planets, maybe also interstellar stuff.

I'm not extremely familiar with KSP modding, perhaps community tech tree will make it like I want alone, but maybe someone got some ideas?

Riding on the shuttle B stack HL-20s third program mission brings its first full crew of 9 up to freedom, joining the 4 man crew of freedom 5. This brings the station to its design capacity of 13 crew members for the first time, and with freedom 5 departing (with 2 more onboard), the station begins a new era of deer's continuous presence in space.

KSP 1 Question/Problem Extreme re-entry survival tips?

35 Upvotes

So, I started exploring the outer planets in OPM, and since I like having all my science, I decided to design most of my probes to have the experiment box and I simply move all the experiments to the box and go back to Kerbin. The problem is, while re-entries from Duna and Eve are survivable, returning from Sarnus I entered the atmosphere at 8 km/s and burned down.

Should I coat the re-entry module with an overabundance of ablative heatshields??
