Following pur little success of our Centaur-X, we decided to continue that with our new Centaur-XL. With its astounding payload options. Medium cargo to low Droo orbit, and medium cargo to lunar orbit and small landers. Centaur-XL also has the power needed to leave Droo's SOI, along with almost enough power to push a small payload to Cylero. Centaur-XL has not yet been rated safe for human use. We hope that Centaur-X and Centaur-XL will be your choice to space.

@Osprey23 I suppose the FH design as is is pretty snazzy at actually getting probes and possibly human landers to the moon in the short term future, so long as the government doesn’t get enough of a budget to fabricate new rockets, eh?

@TopSecret2 thanks, I wasn’t even trying to build a FH clone, I just needed a big rocket for a lunar lander.

This was an excellent take on a Falcon (Simple) Heavy clone, with quirks like parachuting the boosters and the first stage, as well as cross feeding to maximize efficiency and delta-V. KAL works appreciably, and with slight adjustment it gets a fully circularized 100km orbit. Good work!
@TopSecret2 yep, I’m also currently working on a new rocket that will hopefully come out soon once I get all of my tests done.
