AnotherFireFox Aerodynamics presents you Ranger VI, the untinkered version of Ranger V with extended second stage(R2B). It carries Centaur Stage as third stage, but it's optional.

Without Centaur stage, it can launch almost 20ton payload into low orbit(100x100). With Centaur stage, it will give you almost 3,400m/s dV for your deep space probe.

Similar to Ranger V, it's also easy to flight. If you figured out the optimal launching pitch and altitude to start gravity turn, it barely needs your hand to climb to orbit. Experiment and try! For your information, it's around 87' launching pitch and 800m starting gravity turn, if you carry nothing but Centaur.

    @Planefun What do you mean by team up? Sounds interesting.

    Do u wanna team up? Andromeda is what my rockets will be named from now on. My booster will be highly up dated with complex nose cones. Fuel lines added to the stages on the outside, better stage maneuverability, and more detail.

    I have a hidden tank in my station part. If u hide a tank it work and don’t have it on all the time even during launch. I was turn it off till I’m up in space and what change my position or for a positions of a docking port For better access. @AnotherFireFox

    @Planefun I put RCS for some deep space attitude control, so spin stabilization wouldn't work for my purpose. 100% powered RCS would work but it would last less than few seconds. Hmmmmm :thinking:

    Remember my spin stabilization stage? Oh it works, tweek the rcs to100% on the adjustment bar. @AnotherFireFox

    @Planefun It doesn't worth it, current RCS is fairly shitty. I put that for aesthetics' sake :P
