August 31, 201411 yr Just testing some new parts ^_^ In the next few shots of the TD&E maneuvers, Apollo nerds like me will no doubt notice that the SLA panels are not jettisoned as they would be for an actual lunar mission. Apollo 7 did fly with an SLA like shown below, and the rendezvous practice they performed cemented the decision to redesign the SLA to jettison the panels away from the spacecraft for future missions. In fact, one of the panels did fail to fully deploy. Both are available for KSP, I just think this one looks better Thanks for looking :smile: Regards,Brian Doney

September 1, 201411 yr Just giving you a hard time about the black roll pattern markings on each stage, lol. I'm sure they weren't meant to be accurate, no harm intended.
September 1, 201411 yr Author no harm intended. None taken, I just didn't have anything to do with designing/texturing the parts Most things you'll find for KSP aren't even intended/designed to be complete 1:1 replicas of real world kit, though there are a few that come close: Regards,Brian Doney
