Author
Stork Delivery System [SDS] adopted for curation by zer0Kerbal Originally created by riocrokite
Description
Vertical frames with integrated legs for interstage and planetary delivery.
Mod characteristics
- allows you to deliver tall 2.5m or 3.75m diameter parts to planet surface thanks to 6m long, extendable legs.
- lightweight - reusing same textures wherever possible
- integrated approach - one integrated part for frame and legs to increase stability and reduce part count AniGif
Example usages:
> Delivery of cargo trucks (with an assistance of JebPush TM at the end:))
Warnings or 'cabin sticky notes'
- When placing engines above center of mass be sure to either lock gimbals or not use SAS because of KSP bug {you might try to solve it using Tweakable Everything mod and reversing thrust of engines that are above center of mass}
- Avoid rocket/jet blast directed at the legs when they are extended. Prolonged blast will destroy the frame.
- Extending process take some time so you have to account for that when preparing to land.
