SC-B-CM - Heatshield needs balanced

Part needs max temp increased
Heatshield needs some hand-tuning of the usage curves/etc
Balanced for 1600 peak temp, ~450 ablator used, for a mun to 30k capture. Could possibly be tweaked a bit more, but need to gather more information regarding re-entry from duna/etc returns.
Update
The heatshield is fine with me now in RSS+RealHeat, with this patch[1] installed. It has 187 ablator left when performing a LEO lifting reentry. Might not be enough when reentrying directly from the Moon or Mars.
[1]Patch is:
@PART[*]:HAS[ModuleAblator|ModuleHeatShield]:HAS[!%RSSROConfig[*]]:AFTER[DeadlyReentry]:NEEDS[RealSolarSystem,!RealismOverhaul]{
@MODULE[ModuleAblator|ModuleHeatShield]
{
@name = ModuleHeatShield
// Globally, the base is 5. Consider making this 8.75 for all but Mk1pod
@lossConst *= 0.0008
@pyrolysisLossFactor *= 50
@reentryConductivity = 0.01
@ablationTempThresh = 1000
}
}
