What if it the First Stage doesn’t have enough thrust? Eight Struts on the top, middle and bottom in-between the Boosters. If your rocket blows up on the launchpad you may need to add some EAS-4 Strut Connectors to hold the 8 Rockomax BACC Solid Fuel Boosters together. Extend all your antennae/solar panels/thermal control systems and admire your glorious creation! To launch your rocket into orbit, see this tutorial.ĭecouple the satellite from the final stage. Use a name you'll remember or can recognize (For example, “Kerbal Orbital Probe Mk1”). Make sure they are all programmed in the stage bar to the right of the screen when in the VAB.Īnother way is to simply add a Rockomax Jumbo-64 Fuel Tank below the probe/satellite and then a Rockomax "Skipper" Liquid Engine. Attach BACC "Thumper" Solid Fuel Boosters to these decouplers. Rockomax Brand Adapter and attach to it a Rockomax Jumbo-64 Fuel Tank with one Rockomax "Mainsail" Liquid Engine for your centre of thrust.Īdd TT-38K Radial Decouplers eight will do. Stage Two: This stage will be your main launch engine. Finally, add a LV-N Atomic Rocket Motor and another separator below. Put a Rockomax Brand Adapter 02 at the bottom and make sure the flat end is pointed up (use W,A,S,D,Q,E to rotate the part). Use a Rockomax X200-8 Fuel Tank and an Advanced Reaction Wheel Module, Large between the Fuel tank and the Adapter. Attach a Rockomax Brand Adapter below the separator. Stage One: This stage needs to be as short as possible so itĭoesn’t wobble about when you launch and needs to be aerodynamic to reduce drag. Of course, you can design your own or use the one from another tutorial, provided it can reach the intended orbit of your satellite. This is an example rocket that can do the job. Step 2: Build a rocket to launch your satellite into orbit Now, build a rocket to launch your satellite into orbit. Lastly, you will need to add a separator (like the TS-18 Stack Separator) right below your engine, and a fairing below that. For example, you could use one Communotron 16 right on the top of your command module. You also need an Antennas to control your probe and transmit scientific data back to Kerbin. Use two Stratus-V Roundified Monopropellant Tanks on opposite sides to the solar panels and four RV-105 RCS Thruster Blocks, two ROUND-8 Toroidal Fuel Tanks and a small Liquid Fuel Engine at the bottom of the probe the LV-909 Liquid Fuel Engine is a good choice. Now you want to control your probe so add tiny parts for a light weight probe or satellite. Add two OX-4L 1圆 Photovoltaic Panels on both sides of the Battery Banks with the symmetry option (the 'x' key) in the VAB. I used the Z-1k Rechargeable Battery Bank due to its high Electricity Composite of 1000 E Use about three of them together for 3000 units of Electricity. Under the Command Pod, you should add some Rechargeable Batteries. The RC-001S and RC-L01 Remote Guidance Units, MK2 Drone Core, and HECS2 have excellent batteries and reaction wheels with full SAS, but are expensive, making them a good choice for late game career and sandbox missions. The OKTO2 and QBE are very light but have no reaction wheels. The OKTO and HECS have limited SAS capabilities and are cheap, making them good for early career satellites. The Probodobodyne Stayputnik looks cool, but it has no SAS. You can choose from the range of unmanned command modules. How To Build A Basic Satellite Step 1: Build your satelliteįirst you need an unmanned command module right at the top of the rocket.
