View attachment 94775
thrust: 1300t
consuming fuel per 1 sec: 8 tons 125 kilograms
size: 8 wide

Maybe this one will not be inefficient as my last engine

Thrust is very high, but fuel consumption is really high too. For comparison, 3 Titan engines would provide 1200 tons of thrust while guzzling "only" 5 tons of fuel per second. Its thrust would make it interesting to lift very heavy loads, but it would quickly run out of fuel, so overall I'm not sure it would be such a good deal.

yeah... but atleast it can be used on supermassive first stage of the rocket. (atleast 16 wide)

 

[ASC]

thrust: 20 tons, 750 kilograms
consumes only 50 kilograms of fuel

 

[ASC]

finally, an right engine.
took me 3 engines to find the right one

 

[ASC]

but i'll let altair decide.

That would make an Isp of 415 seconds. Now it's super interesting, but kinda inbalanced. Not as much as the ion engine though.

I can give you my opinion, but if you like a particular engine that is your choice. The most important is how you feel about it.

Finally an right choice!
Tho i doubt Stef will see this good.

Quadrant engine

thrust: 83 tons 750 kilograms
consumes an quarter of an ton of fuel in 1 second

depends on the mass

 

[ASC]

depends on the mass

the mass on this rocket engine is somewhere exactly an ton.

 

[ASC]

finally put some detail to my another rocket engine
thrust: 600t
consumes 2 tons 150 kilograms per second

 

[ASC]

made the art

 

[BrokenRealityJ]

Ye

 

[ASC]

what?

 

[ASC]

an tiny battery
barely takes up space on interior of any spacecraft
the capacity is only 333 watts tho, can be recharged through solar panels or from other spacecraft
can supply the other spacecraft docked to it up to 10 watts

 

[ASC]

gotta wait...

 

[ASC]

i dont think altair like that my tiny battery idea

i forgot to put hour next to watts

i think they sort of like it or not

ill leave altair with that.

Altaïr

these people have lives too.

 

[ASC]

yeah...

 

[SHΔRD Aerospace]

yeah...

( don't spam them )

Altaïr

you’ve been told to condense your messages before

 

[ASC]

( don't spam them )

i wont

you’ve been told to condense your messages before

how the heck did you get in AT THE EXACT TIME!?

Altaïr

Yeah, very nice. But you don't have to ask my opinion for everything you do you know.

 

[ASC]

oh yeah...
so they love it despite being low on maximum power capacity.
