Description

Share this:

These parts used to be included in my AmpYear mod, but moving forward they will now be available as a separate parts pack via this thread and no longer available in future versions of AmpYear. But will be completed supported by AmpYear.

Ion RCS
Thrusters that use Xenon-gas and electricity for incredibly efficient RCS. Some limitations:   

  • Has half the Isp of normal Ion engines.   
  • One quarter of the thrust of normal monopropellant RCS thrusters.   
  • Available in one-way linear thruster, 4-way ION RCS block and 4-way 45degrees ION RCS block.   
  • Integrated to TechTree at ionPropulsion.  

Pulsed Plasma Thrusters RCS   
Each thruster contains a fixed amount of Teflon and uses this along with Electric Charge for incredibly efficient propulsion for small craft or maneuvering.   
Some limitations:   

  • Has roughly quarter the ISP of normal RCS thrusters.   
  • One eighth of the thrust of normal monopropellant RCS thrusters.   
  • Only linear thrusters are available.   
  • Integrated to TechTree at advFlightControl.   

* See (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsed_plasma_thruster).   

Planned Changes:

  • Add better emissives and blue thruster effects.
